4.5 out of 5, based on 5,081 reviews.
What people like
- Perfect for quick jotting of ideas
- Very intuitive and easy to use
- Great for doodling and simple sketches
- Allows inserting images and text easily
What they complain about
- It frequently crashes and deletes your work
- Support is non-existent or unresponsive
- Restoring paid upgrades after reinstalling is broken
- Basic features like highlighters cost extra money
Great all around drawing tool
I was hoping to see capability to insert text and pictures be added and was very happy to see those features with the new rev. It is a very stable app. I love that in contrast to most other drawing apps you can flip the selected portion easily.
Took away my plus version I paid for.
I paid for the plus version but it got taken away. What happened? Why do I only have the free version now? Sometimes when it would update I would have to go & restore my upgrade purchase but that is not available anymore. I paid for the plus version & now I don’t have it anymore.
The Almost Perfect Journal App
Sincerely so intuitive and easy to use (especially with the AP). Wish you could pick you own colors for pens and highlights… That’s it. My only criticism.
Could be good
I was actually very disappointed in this app, as it seemed like it had a lot of potential but ultimately the unappealing clunky appearance, gimmicky feautures, lackluster quality, and poor selection of note taking tools just didn't work out with me.
Nice app with one serious caveat
The app is nice and functions very well. But upon purchasing the paid upgrade there are still ads. Never acceptable. Update: the ad issue seems to be resolved with the newest update. Thank you
Love it
Amazing
Oh dear
This app used to be brilliant but now it keeps crashing and is currently not working at all!!! What makes it even worse is that you cannot event contact support because there isn’t one!!!
How do you cut and paste???
I mostly like this app, however for 9.99, I’m finding the features somewhat limiting. There aren’t a lot of brushes. And I cannot for the life of me figure out how to copy and paste… I want to duplicate an item and I can’t. The instructions say something about the context menu, but, there’s no explanation about what the context menu is or looks like.
MAYBE??… not
Unfortunately the base version is too restricted to figure out the utility and worth of a $10 investment to the Inkflow Plus version. The online user guide does look promising BUT having paid for other apps only to then discover illogical implementations or undocumented limitations, I can only say this base version is too limited and cumbersome (just try to copy & paste). And with NO trial period to test out the ‘Plus’ features, my $10 will remain mine.
Love the app hate the prices
Amazing app but i don’t want to pay for basic features for a notepad app
The best
I use this for all my hobbies and creative work. Learning guitar, electronics diagrams, project notes of all kinds. It’s intuitive and don’t know what I’d replace it with if it didn’t exist.
Not great
Not worth the money. I was hoping for more colors and pans or brushes… wasted money
Great app
I've had this app for a while and love it! What could be better is having a lined note pad as an option for those who are not good writing straight on blank paper.
Great app but....
This is an amazing app but for some reason I cant use colors or eraser (I’m on iPad) so I don’t know what to do...
Survived on this app until…
This was my go to app until I found GoodNotes. Inkflow just didn’t keep up with the features.
Loads of options!
There are so many options in this app; I’ve spent many pleasant hours exploring the possibilities it offers. It’s is so rewarding!
So disappointed
Paid for the upgrade and all of a sudden I lost all my info after more than a year! Do not pay!!!!! Huge rip off!!
Love app
I love the app. I use it for everything, but I really wish there would be a calendar stationary that would have all the boxes made then you can do your own free fill!
Please fix this
I downloaded the free version and I loved it so I paid for the full version. HOWEVER, this app keeps on deleting my work like pages of notes I’ve written, if I lock my iPad and come back to it my work will disappear! I’m currently in tears because I spent a lot of time writing 6 pages of notes and I stop looking at my iPad for 2 minutes to look up something on my laptop and come back to my iPad and the app has deleted all but half of the first page of my notes! And this is not the first and only time this has happened, it has happened so many times by now I’ve lost count. I really like this app so please fix it so I can continue using it:’(
It’s great, but needs improvement
This app is so amazing, I love that is has everything that you need to journal, brainstorm, scrapbook etc. My only headache and frustration is that sometimes it freezes on me, and when that happens it doesn’t save my work! This is so frustrating, I don’t know how to prevent this because it randomly freezes. Hopefully this can be fixed. I also wish you could create an account to store everything and be able to access it from any of your other devices. With the correct improvements this app can be amazing!
Useful app
I depend on this app is very useful when you want to jot down quick notes when you don’t have a piece of paper or a pen within your reach
TERRIBLE
Don’t download this app! It’s a WASTE of time….ITS TERRIBLE IT WONT EVEN LET ME MAKE A BOOK BRO!
App Problems
The app is great but it is now crashing every time I go to change the pen color. Besides that it’s a great app.... but if I can get some app support to help fix this that’d be great!! Thanks!
Crashes
Nice to use, but for the fourth time attempting to save crashed and I had to force restart my iPadPro. I need something that doesn't crash!
Stuck and not saved
I like the simplicity of the app and tools for my doodles and notes, illustrations. But so many times, I lost the data. When I close the app, little “wait” star turns and turns for a long time and eventually, like five minutes later, I have to force close the app. Then the last added data is not usually saved. I wish I can resize the eraser! The feature to erase a certain color is cool.
Quick and easy fun
The app to me, is very easy to use. The only thing I would add is different color backgrounds, not just white.
No landscape?
Yeah, tried it for 45 seconds, no way to make it landscape or zoom in or out that I could see. Thumbs down.
Easiest and most natural
Of several apps that I have used over time, this is the one I turn to most. It is easy to select or modify ink color, pen, and width. I like the color / all eraser feature, selection tool, and text features. I wish it had layers support.
Great except lost my purchased upgrade!
I had been using this app for quite a few years, but recently, after not having it on my newer phone for awhile, I reinstalled it. Previously, I had purchased the upgrade to the full version via in-app-purchase. But now, it will not restore that upgrade. I submitted to their feedback a request to fix this, but have not heard from them. I think in the future I’ll avoid doing upgrades from within apps, and only get full version apps if they’re sold as such. Very disappointing, to be honest.
Please introduce better pagination
Please reprogram this app to make it easier to turn a page. Put page turn at screen bottom. What about swipe page turning like Emoji. I have been using this wonderful app for 6 months. Is the publisher Grayon still out there?
Amazing and so easy to use
The design and instruction pages look very poorly designed and might turn you off, but try this app by all means. It is absolutely fantastic for color boards, spreadsheets, projects, and collages. No other apps compare. I’ve tried them all for design projects and this one wins in every category.
Keeps deleting stuff
I use this app to write school notes but it keeps glitching and deletes entire pages. I can’t trust this app anymore because I don’t know if it will delete more pages. Honestly, I want my money back.
Ok
Not to bad but not the easiest to use
Finding notes are disappearing
This may be my error but is frustrating. I took notes in class and it defaulted to a previous point. I don’t know how to recover the items. It happened right after I dismissed to review. It prompted me to review again, so I am putting it as 2 stars because of the stress of lost notes. I paid for pro version.
Soso
It's alright.. they are lacking in pension strokes and variety of colors..
Absolutely incredible app
I have been using the free version for a while. It works so well and is very simple. I love the features of it and am now deciding to buy the full version after 3 years of great experiences.
usless!
the tutorial doesnt even show how to scroll up and down the tutorial page. I spent over an hour trying to figure it but could not. I searched for any help bar but couldnt find any.
Love it
Love this app however i would love it even more if it had maths functions. I’m using this to make maths posters for my students and I can’t type in indices or fractions and I have rubbish handwriting. Otherwise it’s amazing!
Not saving entries?
I have been using this app as a journal due to a lack of handwritten ones for the iPad. I can do a lengthy entry but then lose half, if not all of it when hitting save and exiting out of the app. Very disappointing.
Why
I don’t like u have to pay to get a highlighter and an erase like I need this for school
Great
Wow great app
It’s wack
It doesn’t save your pictures or writing
Simple & Amazing
This app is what I needed to jot down quick notes, ideas, and journal with the ability to also insert images; simple and quick, like a real notebook! There’s a few things I’d like to see considered in future updates; ability to password lock journals, adjust eraser size, and different line & grid sizes for the stationary would be awesome~! Thank you for creating this app!
Crashing
Since buying the pro version, it’s crashed like 6 times and I’ve lost doodles I was proud of. Sad mood :(
Why do you have to pay for an eraser ?
??????
Will Do in a pinch
There are things I need to do in a hurry but this will not work with me to get the job done. It has symbols that doesn’t seem to function according the style of writing. It will do in a rush but some times I’m not in a hurry. For example, I have written done a five letter word, but one of the letters is out of order. Instead of being able to go right to that letter, erase it and place the right letter there, I have to erase all the letters after that to now enter the right one. That can be most unsettling because it breaks the train of thought. Done.
Inkflow plus
I purchased the plus and it wasn’t downloaded. Do not want to pay ANOTHER $10.81 and $16.23. PLEASE RECTIFY!!!!
Feature request
I love this app but there is one feature that I would love to be added. When I have created a page of work I would like an option to switch off/toggle editing so that I could point to the screen without adding to or deleting parts of my work. There may be a feature like this already present but if there is then I haven’t found it. If this can be added, then I would use the app even more than I do now!
It’s okay
Really awesome in the beginning but have only used it for 2-3 days now as I was excited my apple pen came in the mail and it’s deleted the notes I’ve spent hours taking twice now. Works great but saving is unreliable!
Editing & cropping photos in app for next update
Love the app for coloring, note taking or doodling. However it’s not the best for bullet journaling unless you like it very minimal. Stickers don't work well and the photos you import need to be the perfect size because they cannot be edited in the app. That is the main thing that makes me hesitant about recommending it to friends. Haven’t found a way to efficiently include PDFs either.
