User reviews
Really great app. The only thing 2 things that would make it better would be combining this with the font lightbox into 1 app. And having an option to put a grid on the screen to help you measure & match what your're tracing if you have to move the picture around.
This app is great. Still working my way round it but so far good.
Absolutely perfect for my needs. I can adjust the size and lock the screen to trace right on my phone. Thank you.
Uncomplicated simple to use and it does the job.
Great
its awesome
