Summary

User feedback for this app is largely negative, driven by recent updates that have moved many core functionalities behind a paywall, including saving artwork, lasso tools, transformation, fill, and liquify features. Users are highly frustrated by the introduction of excessive and lengthy advertisements, which often interrupt workflows or appear when attempting simple actions like screenshots. While some users still praise the app's free brushes and acknowledge its past utility for art improvement and ease of use, the current monetization strategy has severely impacted the overall user experience. There's also a mention of a 'force close bug' specifically on iPad Air, suggesting some stability concerns.
