★★★★★ You have to buy money to get everything in this bag so that's why I hate Paper
★★★★★ I really like Paper, which honestly makes the pricing even more frustrating.
★★★★★ Disappointing that this is not a QA catch and quick fix…not worth my subscription amy more
53 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ It was simple and easy to understand the features and I honestly didn't need to pay (staying on the free tier) because I was only using it for coloring.
★★★★★ you get 10 pages for free and then you have to pay a subscription.
★★★★★ Love the flip through feature, but the fact you have to pay to even add a second photo on a page is ridiculous.
30 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ It's incredibly too difficult to get it to sync from my iPad to my phone.
★★★★★ Why on earth is this app worth 100 dollars like have you gone mad?
★★★★★ It also lost all of my previous artwork.
20 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ Pencil is no longer working like before. Now only shows very light and has no shading. Disappointing that this is not a QA catch and quick fix…not worth my subscription amy more
★★★★★ Family sharing doesn't work.
★★★★★ Will not let me draw unless I purchase anything, requires a membership for some reason I am not sure if this is a user error or if you cannot do anything without a membership, which is insane because it is $100 a year
16 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ UPDATE: it's been 2 years and this app still has the same problems.
★★★★★ I remember it never cost any money and it was just a sketching or writing app. Now, you have to pay for subscription? I'm not gonna waste my money for that. How can the bills be this high, guys.
★★★★★ Add this feature to your next update !
14 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ It's gotten to a point where I would close and open the app and a page would go missing.
★★★★★ I have tried all the recovery directions, and the pages are still missing.
★★★★★ Can overwrite colors and delete palettes, with no way to restore.
12 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ I have submitted support tickets and there has been no response.
★★★★★ They don't even bother to explain what the difference is between “lite” and “premium” subscriptions and the “support” link takes you to a page about link sharing which isn't at all relevant to those trying to use Paper.
★★★★★ If it was a monthly fee then it makes it easy for me to give up on a certain app to support this amazing app but being the cheapest offer but as a weekly fee is kind of a robbery.
11 of the 1 and 2 star reviews.
★★★★★ If you open the app without a connection, you'll be stuck on the loading screen until you connect to the internet.
★★★★★ The app installs successfully from the App Store, but unfortunately, it doesn't load properly.
★★★★★ It's stuck on first loading flipping papers….
30 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ this is a fun and cool digital art pad!
★★★★★ Paper is a fun app to doodle in!
★★★★★ I love this app so much but it doesn't make it very fun when you have to get something that cost money just so you can add more photos.
15 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ Also, please make it free.
★★★★★ I love this app I used it every day and then the free trial ended and I was going to ask my mom if I could get the subscription but I saw how much it was and knew she was going to say no.
★★★★★ the purchase options worth it.
13 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ I also appreciate its intuitive tool bars, which allowed me to learn quickly and become proficient.
★★★★★ Controls are basic and easy to use.
★★★★★ Easy to use, colors are awesome , tools are flawless
9 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ I love this game and it helps me draw a lot better but I don't like how I can't have everything without buying the full package and I have a hard time changing sizes but other than that it is good so I would get this…
★★★★★ This is a really cool app its useful whenever i wanna write down my ideas but one thing that would make it better is that you could zoom in better so you can add more detail into the drawings or whatever your doing in…
★★★★★ I love this app, and it helps calming me down when I'm drawing on it.
6 of the 4 and 5 star reviews.
★★★★★ For the analog artist who wants to make beautiful work on the go.
★★★★★ It is beautiful and I became an artist because of the application.
★★★★★ I really do love this app, the ui is intuitive and it offers all the features I really need out of an app like this.

Latest reviews, United States App Store.
The app wouldn't even load. I tapped on it to open it and it would open to this loading screen of endlessly turning pages and stay on that screen but never move passed that screen to the actual application. I was on a wireless internet connection with full bars and even tried closing the app, disconnecting from the WiFi and reopening the app on full bars of 5G+ but it still wouldn't load. Finally just gave up.
Gives you many drawing tool options and gives you unlimited pages.
Помню года два назад это продолжение было абсолютно бесплатно теперь любое действие здесь платное ужас .
Thought it was goingto be free but Sam mislead
Love this app just wish it was cheaper
