What’s happening? – Flow: Sketch, Draw, Take Notes Review

I’ve had this app for a while and I liked it quite a bit, the interface, the simplicity and the ability to group in sketchbooks. It had some issues here and there especially syncing between the iPhone app and the iPad one, but that was ok overall and anyway I mostly use my iPad to draw so I got rid of the iPhone app. Then update came and I was very excited especially the pencil case option. But again that fell short and turned out to be very clunky and I thought that I can do without it. Syncing was still a problem also. But more importantly, I can’t open my old sketchbooks anymore and every time I open one the drawing don’t download and I keep seeing the little swirling ink blot. As such I lost a few drawings because they don’t load anymore. Furthermore, since the latest updates, the scrubber does not show all the drawings. So bottom line with every update the problems with this app seem to build up and at this point I don’t trust it anymore to use it as often. I gave it 3 stars because I still think that it’s got the potential of being a great app and it still can be fixed. Addendum: a few months ago, I wrote the above review and rated the app 3 stars. Since then it only got worse. Now I can’t even open my more recent folders. I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it, logged out and then logged in again, to no avail. My older folders? Forget about it! If I try to download them from the cloud I get a message that I’m not connected to the internet although I am and everything else in the app requiring internet is working. So again, with a new update and a new tool (the ruler), the app got even worse and is really not useable for me at this point. The developer has not been very responsive either. I really want to use this app and I do have a lot of applications for it but as it is now I’m afraid that I will lose all my work and it is extremely frustrating every time you want to open a sketchbook. I’m unsubscribing.
