Downloaded last night and purchased the ProPack. Excited to use. Did a quick sketch, left the app, came back --- no sketch was saved. Signed up for the online backup. Tried again, same results. Sometimes I would sketch, go to a new page, come back and the sketch would be saved as dots... no matter what though - as soon as I exit the app - nothing is saved.

I was unable to use the app. At all. When I open a book it looks fine. But as soon as I finish drawing it goes black. And when I start drawing again it looks normal till I lift my finger when it returns to black.

I have purchased an expensive bamboo spark device that syncs my notes with inkspace which in turn syncs with this app. This app no longer allows me to add inkspace files so it's useless to me. Seriously wacom it's bad enough that I need too apps that don't work independently...now they don't work together. What a waste of money.

Can you guys provide inline writing area so that while writing it will be a little easy to take notes on mobiles. Even though it has palm rejection an inline writing area would be of a great help. You may keep it as a toggle option. Please make it happen and soon.

Yes, it's cool to see wacom ( as a brand ) continue to evolve... however, *Unable to try the Product* until a resolved #404 code error with using a secured profile and password gets fixed. Have to uninstall...

Is it tested to be compatible with other Wacom apps? Inkspace cannot export WILL file to it as failure message keep popping up and asking for "Newer" version to read and edit WILL file. If you try to read WILL file from local or cloud storage, Bamboo Paper just can't even find it. Please notice this and fix it!

Since the new inkspace update this app is unusable, was working fine before hand now the app just tells me to 'get the newer version' even tried deleting and reinstalling but no joy, massive shame as was looking forward to using it with my new bamboo slate

There are not enough colors to choose from, the pencil is to light, and it is hard af to shade anything! Oh and also the money I spent on the pencil was a complete waste of money.

Onerous pages upon pages of terms of service. I just need to sketch, I don't want to spend an hour reading ToS to make sure I'm not signing all my rights and privacy away first. Uninstalled.

Downloaded this app to take a few notes and instantly bought the pro pack - at 6 dollars it's all worth it for the brush strokes and paper types. Highly recommended for the casual note takers out there.

Data from a Bamboo Spark is imported but cannot be exported or syned to Bamboo Parer making it pretty limited... Wacom needs to get working on this and its cloud servces pretty quickly

Dealbreaker bug on my device..I tried this out on an in store tablet to help me decide whether to buy a Bamboo Stylus. Using an in store stylus I was impressed by the stylus performance and the app. I bought the stylus (Bamboo Solo) However once I installed this to my tablet (Samsung Galaxy Tab 2.7) I found major bug. I can draw on a page but every time I lift the stylus (or my finger) off the page the screen goes black. Then the page only becomes white when I draw on it. Basically it makes the app impossible to use. Its a great app - I just can't use it right now because of this bug..

The fastest inking engine on android....that was my first priority bcuz I write very fast...and this is the only one to do it...the ink just flows from the pen tip...is easily readable later..just try writing five 3's in a line, real fast, with this app and then with others! Look at the 'heads' of the 3's! Until this app came along,I thought ink lag was an android/hardware limitation. Needed a simple notebook to jot down everything and anything on the go and this is so so perfect! Thank you Wacom

Disliked it? No, but was disappointed. Wacom promotes their "WILL" file format for its richness and utility. So I spent $5+ for the Bamboo Paper pro package and I only later discovered that the detailed stylus stroke info I am confident is stored when I leave a page can't be reviewed and revised later. Bummer. I don't consider this a waste of my money, but be assured I will examine any other Wacom product software /most/ carefully before giving them another nickel.

I've been using this app since it was first released in 2011. On the general whole, this is a great notetaking app but it does have some limitations, first and foremost being the lack of custom ink colors and odd, mostly useless pen options. This is a great app for quick note taking, especially in a classroom setting, as it's inking is swift and accurate. Because this is what I primarily use it for, and because it works well in this category, I have no problem giving it four stars. However, before downloading you should know that there is no way of rearranging the order your notebooks are in, and the pen/color options are nice, but extremity limited. I would also warn against buying the expansion packs, as they are mostly useless even if they are pretty to look at.

Cannot open .will files from Android on iPad pro. Plus the wacom cloud sync does not work properly. Can't even create an account and sign in. For a company like wacom seams to be ridiculous to have developers messing up so much.

I paid for the PRO packet on this. My tablet got a factory reset while being repaired, and guess which was the only app which "forgot" i had already paid for it. Email to customer support and no reply. Fortunately don't need to use it enough to have to pay again. Despite what another person says i DID sign into my account after my tablet reset: all my OTHER paid apps reloaded their paid parts correctly. Bamboo customer support- why don't you reply ?
