## Review summary

Users praise the concept of social doodling and some features, but the app suffers from persistent widget issues, unreliable delivery of drawings/messages, and maintenance problems after updates. The top negatives are widgets that don’t load or update, sending failures, and tool instability (undo, color, zoom, erase). Positive notes include the fun, feature-rich drawing experience and engagement features like a Drawing of the Day contest and better options than some alternatives.

### Pros

- Fun, social doodling with friends and sending drawings to home screens.
- Feature-rich drawing experience with more options than similar apps.
- Drawing of the Day contest and other social features for engagement.
- Zoom feature is a welcomed addition.

### Cons

- Home-screen widget often fails to load or update (blank/grey; messages not visible).
- Updates/maintenance issues: app feels abandoned and updates break core tools.
- Sending drawings/messages often fail or get deleted, and group chats don't appear in the widget.
- Drawing tools unstable after updates: undo crashes or hides doodles; color not applying; erase missing.
- Group management and UI quirks (can't delete groups; other UI issues).
