## Review summary

Draft Paper is praised for being easy to use and ideal for quick, on-the-go floor plans and brainstorming. Users like its mobile-friendly feel and flexible tools. However, reviews repeatedly cite reliability and feature gaps: frequent crashes/freezes that lose work; inconsistent saving/sharing/export options; limited measurement units (no easy switch to inches/feet); lack of project organization (no easy way to name or store layouts); and limited import or asset options. The app feels beginner-friendly but reliability and missing features hinder heavier drafting needs.

### Pros

- Easy to use and learn with a user-friendly interface.
- Great for quick floor plans and blueprint sketches on mobile.
- Flexible drawing tools and overall versatility.
- Helpful for brainstorming and planning home projects.

### Cons

- Frequent crashes and freezes that cause loss of work; need to save often.
- Saving, sharing, and exporting features are unreliable or limited (small exports, PDF font issues, project naming/organization missing).
- Limited measurement units; difficult to switch between metric and inches/feet.
- Lack of basic project organization (no easy way to name or store layouts).
- Import/upload capabilities are limited; difficulty uploading or importing blueprints.
