I like the photos and all but it gives me nothing I look up new york it gives me a creepy doll if they can add good pictures that would be better I look up apple it gives me a lizard if they can improve it it would be better and you have to pay for it so not really recommended it my opinion and everyone who I know that uses it agrees. not saying its horrible I'm just saying I did not like it, also there are some pictures that are inapropriate.

I'm an aspiring writer and at first, I loved this app. My only complaints were the fact that you can't upload your own art and that there's a limit to how long your chapters can be. I pushed past it though, because every app has its flaws, so it didn't bother me all that much. What did bother me is that they said that "it's a website for everyone" and yet, they refused to let me publish my writing because of my serious stories and writing style. I wanted to let my creativity shine, and yet, I was unable to. I eventually downloaded the last of my works and switched to a different site. I'm very disappointed in the way that they treated me, and a mod even went as far as calling my work "grotesque and unfit for the public" Honestly, if you're a teen or older, this app isn't for you.

I like how teachers can create accounts that they can assign and monitor student work! I also like that students/parents are able to purchase books that are fundraiser for school. I hope that creators will allow users to add their own images, add text boxes where they desire, and format text with different font styles and sizes. I also had trouble on new page. I added text to bottom text box, but when I dragged image to page, it covered text, and I was unable to remove image, so I wound up having to type the text again, on the opposite page.
