Beautiful and intuitive

This is one of the better drawing and idea apps I have ever used.

Currently it doesn’t allow snap shapes so when want to draw a straight line or a square for example, it doesn’t do it automatically like it does in notes. Once this is fixed this app will be 100% the best.

Wonderful but needs improvements

I enjoy this app a lot when brainstorming ideas and writing my scattered thoughts down as notes I can arrange. Freeform is essentially great for taking a look at the bigger picture of one’s vision and modifying it into something you can productively work with.

However, it would be nice to have a folder or file system for the freeform boards we make. When you start to have more and more projects, its hard to keep organized when you cannot store or group your boards into different categories.

I also encounter lag when my notes/elements start to pile up in a single board, even when I have a relatively new and powerful iPad. Hence, it would also be nice if the app wouldn’t slow down when loading notes on a big board.

Overall, freeform has great potential and it is already a fantastic productivity app on the iPad. With more tweaks, it would be even better.

too really ,

Wow

I want to use this app every single day it’s so good 😊 but when I’m trying to use the swiping feature for different apps, it doesn’t work because it’s thinking that I want to scroll to the left pls fix this issue please 🙏 .
Please correct me for any grammar mistakes.
Love, Apple fan
