User Reviews

Users praise the app for organized notebooks, a relaxing journaling feel, ad-free use, and strong drawing tools (including the smudge tool) that suit illustrators and kids. However, they repeatedly criticize the steep, recurring subscription costs, data loss and recovery issues, bugs and syncing problems, paywalls blocking basics, and usability frustrations with certain tools.

Pros

Notebook-style organization with multiple notebooks for ideas and sketches
Relaxing, journal-like drawing experience (great with music)
Ad-free/no ads
Strong drawing tools for illustrators (smudge tool; intuitive toolbars)
Kid-friendly/family-friendly, suitable for kids

Cons

Very expensive subscription model with weekly or yearly pricing; demand for a lifetime option
Data loss issues: journals/pages disappearing and difficult to recover (no trash/recovery)
Bugs and reliability problems including disappearing pages and syncing discrepancies
Features gated behind a paywall; limited functionality without Pro (desire for cheaper or lifetime access)
Long tutorials and some essential features missing or hard to use (lines, pen sensitivity, layers)

Spent hours working on something and switched to a different app and the app was just gone and all my stuff was deleted. I think it’s ridiculous to restore stuff you have to pay and the price is too high for me to even consider. Never using again was a waste of my time

It only allows me to use the app if I want to pay 10$ a week or 100$ a year, no other free options. I really like the idea of the app i just don’t think it is the one for me
