## Poetics Reviews in United States

### ***** "Like fridge poetry + picture"
I love this simple app. I thought it was gone because for some reason it wasn’t amongst my apps. Just by chance someone in our digital artist group used it and I said “what???” Love having it back and it remembered I had already downloaded the in-app purchase! Thanks for keeping this up.
-- Ghostmoth, 2023-04-09

### *---- "This is a joke"
Don’t waste your money. You can only write 3 words on a single screen. Scammers. Should be taken down from the App Store. Jerks scamming poets are the lowest humans
-- Timmy.Viola, 2023-02-14

### ***-- "Great at first, but text functionality is messy"
I really like the simplicity of the app, and it is very slick looking. Unfortunately, working with the text is not that easy. Automatic text wrapping and resizing to fit the window would it a lot more user friendly (apologies if this is something that it can do, but if it does, it is unintuitive). Still, I will keep an eye on this; as slick as it is at first, I’m sure the developers will make it a lot better as time goes on.
-- scottgsmith62, 2022-11-18

### ***** "Thanks for changing the pricing model"
Thanks for changing the pricing model. 

With Kind Regards~
-- Sherap6, 2022-11-17

### ***** "Fun with fonts."
Adding fonts to your poetic is pretty neat. I just wish there was a broader selection of type faces but this is definitely a neat addition to an already great app.
-- spectrekid68, 2022-01-15

### ****- "Fun"
This is a fun app.  For future it could become more entertaining and useful if fonts, colors, and other variabilities were included.  Adding a return key or ability to type longer phrases would be really useful. 

Regardless of these needed additions, it is a very useful app.  Thanks for the creation.
-- Traveler—46, 2021-04-30

### *---- "Can’t paste into the app"
You can’t paste anything into the app. Huge flaw, waste of money on my part. Lucky it was only $3
-- Nippytippylippy, 2020-10-22

### *---- "Simple app/lpoor quality"
You 
Would think for such a simple app there would be more in terms of quality assuranxe. 
 however is that for years now and basis and it was always at least one or two but I would consider showstoppers eg  it’s currently has an issue right now with the spelling mistakes, it freezes up if you use rhe replace optoon
Prior this saved in messenger is broken for (I just seen screenshots of around it but my point being is a company I will never do business with due to the lack of quality

basically yes its free but you get what you pay for. Its obvious they dont even test the code. 

Also this whole “OOO poetry” makes no sense. Its just an app that has defects. Its not like anyone has split the atom here or anything.
-- Note_Luver, 2020-08-12

### ****- "Praying for more features soon 😍"
Love this app so far! I have such a blast with it, but my only criticism is I think it would be 100x better if they allowed different font or text styles....praying for that to happen soon!!
-- kerrid-away, 2019-02-13

### *---- "Dislike"
Dislike that to write an entire poem I have to constantly stop to adjust the words. It would nice to just be able to continue typing.
-- Vanessa L.C, 2018-02-20
