Great!… but there are two easy-fix issues needed to be solved

Since this app launched, I’ve been using it daily, I’m a very visual based person when it comes to note taking, organising and productivity. I use this as a way to keep all my info, research, structure work plans, literally everything. And I’ve finally felt compelled to write a review because of two basic things that should be implemented by now… One being FOLDERS!!! If you’re like me using this frequent. Its become super cluttered and I can’t organise it outside of ‘Favorites’, and thats not enough. Apple Notes, Reminders even Voice Memo have folders, why doesn't Freeform???… And also, when uploading images/videos together, they seem to be grouped together overlapping each other. Why is there no way to align them from the moment they are uploaded without them overlapping?… Two simple additions/changes that would be massively useful. Please make these amendments in a near future update please!

Missing two important features!

I love this app. I’m already using it a lot to outline my project.
I have two requests for the developers’ consideration that would bring my review up to 5 stars.
Please give shapes an option to change the shape. It has been really frustrating getting something almost perfect and then realising I needed a slightly different shape and having to start over again. This keeps happening.
Also, please add a select box tool for multiple objects. It was far more frustrating finishing several sections and wanting to rearrange things or even to add a new section earlier on, only to realise that in order to move a whole section of different objects (or more!) I needed to do it one-by-one, object-by-object.
Thank you for taking the time to read and consider

Extremely Lagging and caused problem

At first it’s good, I made notes fluently. However, after using it more than an hour or so, it gets unbelievably laggy, I’m using iPad Pro 2020, I’ve never seen may iPad gets so laggy in an app. No matter writing, tapping, or even open and close the app, it was unbearably laggy in the app. I tried restart the device but eventually the app goes laggy again. When I copied and pasted one section of my notes to another section, it didn’t land in the place I wanted it to be but overlapped with my other notes weirdly, then I tried to move it away, BUT because it’s so laggy, the notes can’t even be moved. Then I reopened the app, and my notes just overlapped with each other and I can’t even withdraw my previous procedure. I’m very upset right now because my valuable notes that took me so long to finished just overlapped with each other without any solution. I am very disappointed and sad, and a bit angry. Not gonna use and trust this app anymore. Until the problem get fixed, which I wish so.
