I tried to us this app to make a cover. Maybe it takes a little getting used to. Maybe my iPhone screen isn’t the optimal interface and is just too small. I changed some text, and good ol’ autocorrect kicked in. I couldn’t see it, because the text edit box was below the controls at the bottom of the page. I couldn’t select the text to fix it. I tried zooming in, but it was still too low and was obscured. When I tried to update the text, the text just changed size and shape. I tried deleting it and copying some other text on the cover. After I got the text right, I tried to move the text, but it kept bouncing back to its original location. I give up.
As much as I love Comic Life, the iPhone app Comic Touch 2 doesn’t work on my (aging) iPhone 4. Crashes every time.
I'm a big fan and user of Plasq and its products, but this app is not ready for prime time. Sure, this is the first rev, but it crashes frequently on the iPhone 4S, sometimes requiring a phone restart. Good fun, though, and I'm sure the update will fix that problem.
Program quits immediately after launch on my iPhone 4S. Useless until this is fixed.
