If I understand correctly – GeoGebra Geometry Review

So I think this is a great app in many ways. It is much easier to criticize then to create. That said I believe the user experience of this app needs a little push in the friendly direction. In many ways this app succeeds where other geometry apps fail. It has a more fluid feel than some other apps of its kind. I love the in app icons, which are clear and easy to read! Some suggestions. *When deleting points and lines, it tends to delete in groups. I assume this has to do with the math behind the surface of the program. From the users experience this very frustrating. *I would like to see, two finger tool rejection when panning and zooming. It’s impossible to create segments that are far apart or when two points are close together, without the ability to zoom and pan. *Deselect tool (arrow) should be part of the main screen and not at the bottom of the screen in the tool pallet. More front and center. *Other ways to create angles. A copy and move segment would be helpful. I am finding it difficult to create an angle in the right orientation sometimes (parallel and perpendicular tools works great but sometimes i want to adjust more freely). I like the angle tool but sometimes I don’t have a line to build off of and I need to create one blind and in the right orientation. *Building on that idea. creating an angle by its bisector might helpful. *Adjust a preexisting angle possibly by clicking on the angle on the screen. angles are hard to select on screen. *Move a line or constrained point. The move tool only works for unconstrained points as far as I know. *Help banner when selecting tools might show a quick help snippet. Possible clarifying the tool without opening the help section. *Building a tool set would allow you to choose your favorite tools without the need to shuffle through the very long wonderful list of choices. I like the idea of creating a narrow toolbar set on the side which would take up less space on the screen. *Finally, I believe files are not automatically saved to a destination in the cloud. I don’t believe the app has a stored folder there. I learned this when the file I was working on crashed and I lost the file. In conclusion. Is this app designed mainly for mathematicians or can it be used more broadly. Are artists like me considered too.
