The heavy watermarks !!

I have owned the printed version for many years and also the old app. This heavy watermarking is absolutely ridiculous and makes the app very user unfriendly. Get rid of the watermarks please.

Going off the grid? Need something badly? Not speaking your tongue? Pointit has a photo for you. Body parts , sports gear, foods, bike parts, transport, medical issues, lodging and much more are all at your finger tip. This app communicates when others fail. Try it.

Ugh! The watermarks!

I'm a huge fan of the book! So having said that, I understand the authors wish to make sure his photos aren't stolen by someone else, but the watermarks are really distracting and make the photos much less usable for what was intended. Also what would be great would be a search function where you could type in tags.
