I bought the in-app purchase. I NEVER buy anything unless it's necessary.
I didn't buy it because it was necessary; but rather, I bought it because I really like this app and I have high hopes on improvements within it.
I use the app a lot (really helps with my creative flow).
Anyway, after using it for a while, I did realize it could use some improvements:
1. Clean up the interface. I love the simplicity of using the app, but change the design to match iOS7 please. The app's dimensions also don't fit on my phone. While that black strip at the bottom seems so trivial, it really does affect my user experience (especially since I paid for ads to be removed).
2. We need an undo button. We also need a delete button with individual stamps. It gets frustrating when working hard on adding multiple stamps only to start over again because you accidentally pressed the wrong stamp.
3. Ability to save favorite colors for the stamps.
4. Stamp folders! I need some organization.
5. After taking the photo for a new stamp, I'm taken to a square area where my stamp will be saved in. Sometimes, I doodle on page edges, so we need a way to reposition our stamp so that it could be in the center rather than a corner or on an edge. Oh and a zoom feature in order to erase in small areas!
6. When I use a landscape photo to overlay, it is placed at the very top of the page. Please fix this so that there is no huge space of a gray area in the middle (center the photo).
7. Make it easier to size and rotate stamps. I like how you can resize the stamp without having your fingers on the square, but gets hard to reposition when the stamp becomes really small.
8. Did I mention the undo button already? Well, we really need that.
9. Ability to change the opacity of stamps.
10. Share to Instagram. BUT MORE SO, the ability to "Open [the photo] in..." That would really help manage photos instead of saving multiple photos in my camera roll!
...And if you really want to blow me away...
11. Sometimes, I don't have pen and paper with me. I know this idea seems to be contrary to the app's nature, but I would like an in-app stamp maker (doodling canvas in-app with the ability to change certain parts' colors). This idea seems complicated, so no worries if it's not added. But if it is possible, I would not mind paying extra for that feature (but please don't bombard the app with so many in-app purchases!)
Now for the pros that really made me stick with this app:
- super fast and slick
- stamp management
- endless layers of stamps
- unlimited color choices
- simple and easy to learn
LOVE this app! Wouldn't have bought the in-app purchase if I didn't know I would be keeping this for a long time.
I hope you consider my ideas! Thank you so much for bringing us a great app! Keep up the good work, developers!
