As I am sure many other’s will realize as they receive their new Jotos, this device has a lot of potential but currently is barely usable. I have not purchased the professional art subscription which seems to promise very crisp clean graphic art. In fact, all the drawing examples advertised for Joto are very precise graphic designer. As a designer myself, I am at a loss as to how poor the drawing tool performs. There are no undos, no eraser, and palm rejection support which is built into iOS. Even worse, the app is unable to capture anything resembling the drawing inputted. For example, if I draw a circle it converts into something closer to a square. I am not sure if this is due to the app needing to translate the drawing data into a vector based art form. If so, I think the tool would be better off providing shapes, Bézier curve tools, and type tools instead of a unusable free form drawing tool. Also, it would be nice if there was support for other content creation tools like Photoshop, Illustrator, Affinity Photo, Affinity Designer or Procreate.
Simply put the Joto team needs to fix and improve content creation tools quickly. Current software state is does not bode well for the future of Joto period. Quite frankly it’s a bit disappointing especially considering the long production and shipping delays. Hoping to see improvements soon.
