SnapType Pro

Update (May18/23): App support has been very responsive. Fixed issues and had good communication through the whole experience. Update (May 17/23): App support has been working with me to debug and may have resolved issues with upcoming update. Thanks. Will adjust my review again with newer release. Previously: It seems this new update (to introduce SnapType Pro 2) brings back some of the bugs reported years ago. It crashes when starting. It also deleted all my previous files as if I've never used SnapType before. After restarting my iPad (with latest iPadOS), app loads but only once. Device restart is required again. Repeats.

Love SnapType!!! Just wondering if it would be possible to have the documents in alphabetical order or in the order they were uploaded… everything time I add a document, all my documents switch places. 😩

This program is so helpful for those with fine motor challenges or dysgraphia. It is very simple to use and is great at school and home.

This app randomly deletes saved files. The files remain but everything I typed in is gone. This is really frustrating and has happened multiple times! This has resulted in having to redo a ton of work!!

I just purchased this today and was successful in uploading my pictures but when I click on them to mark on the picture it closes out and brings me to the iPad screen each time...I've tried several times and have had no luck...frustrated...I was hoping to use this for my non verbal son who can not use writing tools at school.

It’s a great tool when it actually works, but it crashes all the time. I bought it years ago and stopped using it because it was so frustrating. I just recently tried it again thinking they would have fixed the issue by now, but it’s doing the same thing!

I love it features

Glitchy and hard

It keeps deleting all of my stuff

I have been using SnapType Pro as a tool for my special education students for 3 years because it serves students with a wide range of abilities. My students who can use a keyboard quickly learn how to independently snap a picture of their assignment and immediately start working just as their peers are doing. My students who use AAC on an ipad for communication can compose each of their answers on their AAC app, hit ‘copy’, flip over to the SnapType app and paste it directly on the worksheet or whatever else the class is using. Once completed, they hit ‘share’ and they email it to me or upload it into their Seesaw journal, Google drive, etc. We are getting excellent technology like Chromebooks in the classroom now, but the ipad is always with us, whether we are working in the library or maybe outside in the garden, and there is no need to log in so we find it very helpful and convenient.
