## Review summary

Users appreciate the app's broad range of sketch effects, including a pencil-drawing look, and find it easy to use with strong printing and sharing capabilities. However, recurring issues include inconsistent sketch quality (many outputs feel like overlays rather than true sketches), limited customization options, a perception of poor value due to upselling and price, a small selection of styles, and missing core features like saving work. Overall, it's a fun, option-rich tool that's enjoyable for quick art, but it often falls short on producing authentic sketches and revising controls.

### Pros

- Wide variety of sketch effects and options, including a pencil drawing feature.
- Easy to use / user-friendly.
- Good print quality and shareable results (framing, sharing with others).

### Cons

- Sketch results often look like overlays or non-sketch outputs rather than true pencil sketches.
- Limited customization options (frame width, overlay opacity) and general controls.
- Upsell prompts and perceived low value for money; some users regret purchasing.
- Not enough sketch styles / limited variety of effects.
- No way to save sketches (missing core feature).
