User Reviews

Users like its intuitive, visual-first design and easy page layout, especially for moving pictures and text boxes and for journaling-like projects. However, recurring complaints center on monetization and limits: only one book is usable without upgrading, with repeated prompts to upgrade or restore purchases. Managing books is awkward—templates can't be deleted, and starting a new book is hard. Other drawbacks include restrictive cover options and instability when exporting or sharing PDFs, plus a bug where the plus button exits the app. Many want multi-book support and more customization.
Pros
  • User-friendly and easy to navigate.
  • Strong visual layout features for placing pictures and text boxes.
  • Useful for journaling and quick page creation; works well for a digital diary.
  • Generally reliable performance with minimal lag and few crashes.
Cons
  • Upgrade/one-book limit: only one book usable without purchasing the upgrade and repeated prompts to upgrade or restore purchases.
  • Difficulty deleting templates or starting a new book; managing books is awkward.
  • Cover customization is restricted (album-based covers; you can’t change the cover after selection).
  • Crashes or instability when exporting or sharing PDFs.
  • Plus button can exit the app, indicating a bug.

Ok so when I first got in to the app it asked for photos... And I don't want photos in my book! I just hate it ALREADY. So yeah it's not worth it.

Downloading and playing around with this app was an emotional rollercoaster. I had really low hopes for this app because of the poor reviews and the 2.5 stars. But then when I got into the app and started playing around with it. You see, I’m writing a short manga type story and I need software that’ll allow me to move around my pictures that I drew and move around text boxes. This app is great for that part...and I got a whole page done. But then I realized I made it on the cover of the book. And there was no way for me to change that at all. I figured I could just try to make a new book and start from scratch, nope. I was requested to upgrade to premium if I wanted to make another book. But I’m not looking to invest in an app like this. But after that I didn’t lose hope in the app, I tried to delete the book template I had already started on, but it wouldn’t even let me delete that. That’s when I decided this app wasn’t worth it. The negatives outweighs the positives. On another note, this app is laid out very simply and childishly. The editing options are huge, they take up at least an inch of my screen at the bottom and it’s very distracting and annoying. Sorry for the ramble, I’m just flustered.
