Not so great, but not so bad

I wrote a rather poor review of this app a while ago, but after a few updates its much better. Unfortunately I still dont think it has much of a place on the iPad—Penultimate has better handwriting; Upad and Notes Plus provide significantly more features.

Where this app could distinguish itself is on the iPhone, where there is bafflingly little in the way of serious note taking apps. But its missing the crucial feature of (some form of) automatic scrolling, without which the iPhones small screen makes handwriting so difficult as to be a useless thing to try.

The latest update appears to have added automatic scrolling to the iPad app but not to its iPhone counterpart. Seems like an odd prioritization given that the iPad hardly needs it.
