Been using this app for a multitude of purposes since I got it like... 3-4 years ago maybe?... I remember it was suggested to me at the time, so I got it cuz it’s a one off payment, not that godawful subscription BS. Once you tinker around with it and get creative its a great tool to keep on hand. Biggest drawback is the “search” under the icons is a crap shoot ( still ) and you cant flip designs. You can’t copy paste either so if you wanted a row of identical icons say. You have to reopen the search. Type the name in again. Scroll across till you find it. And do it *ad nausea* until you’re satisfied. The fonts are dope! Not sure if you can use these on business cards or for flyers etc. I wish they were more forthcoming with that info cuz I don’t wanna just steal someone’s work!
Awesome image libraries, with some good basic tools like opacity, stroke, etc. The search tool works great. I was blown away by the choices for "palm tree," for instance. And I was glad to learn that it works on my fourth gen iPad with iOS 10.3.3. But 1) It's a bit clunky. I.e., you have to start your search all over again to change your choice and you can't make a duplicate to make additional versions. Also sometimes slow to react to things like font change. 2) It crashes! A lot! If they could fix the issues, this app would save me from having to buy a new iPad with iOS 12 which most design apps require now.
Wish there was an option for canvas size and transparency. I’ve been able to in the past create transparent images, but with all of the changes on the app and iOS, even if I save without a background, it is ever present and persistent. I’d love to see that changed at the bare minimum to go back up in rating. Help?
