A lot of quirks and oddities, but very useful. It is easy to use, and quite powerful once you understand its limitations. No annoying ads or nag screens, and despite its limitations, it fills my needs better than many similar apps. That said, it's far from perfect. Mistakes are often hard to correct as editing is done in a single layer bitmap vs vector or multi-layer drawings I wish certain components could be resized, and cancelling some operations leaves garbage on the screen. Save often!

Install it and use it only if you have enough self-control so you don't get mad. It doesn't do what you really want it to do when drawing electronic schematic.

Easy to use, simple to create a whole array of custom made symbols/devices.

A very good app. it has an amazing drawing capability. it takes a little while to get used to the various functions but is relatively easy to use. Runs ok on my Galaxy Samsung tablet which is some 6 years old. Very impressed

Unintuitive and impossible to even get a simple schematic started. There is no undo function so if you misplace one of the few components that will actually draw you have to wope the entire sheet and start from scratch...

Wonderful app! I use it all the time, just can't figure out how to add my own components would be nice if he could upgrade that part.
