## Review summary

Users generally like this app for basic drawing on videos and appreciate watermark-free exports without a paid subscription. However, issues repeatedly mentioned include the inability to target drawings to specific frames (paint covers the whole video), color picker problems (limited options, even white may not be drawable), occasional startup crashes after permission prompts, and slow saves with possible output size increases. It works for simple annotations but lacks robust timeline controls and reliable color handling.

### Pros

- Draws on video and supports basic annotations.
- No watermark and no premium required to export videos.
- Easy to use for basic drawing tasks.
- Generally gets the job done for simple video annotations.

### Cons

- Painting applies to the entire video; lacks per-frame/timeline control.
- Color picker is limited or broken; cannot choose specific colors or draw white.
- Crashes on startup after granting permissions.
- Saving/exporting is slow and can inflate file size.
