SketchBook Ink – Product and more Details coming this Spring. http://bit.ly/xwNZjw






The guy at the Apple event clearly said “April” for the release of Sketchbook Ink. It’s April 17th, What’s going on????
There is still a good portion of April left.
It’s the 22nd and no mention of Sketchbook ink!
Lies!
Like fine wine some things take time for quality. I was told today that the release of Sketchbook Ink is very soon.

It’s May already, when do you guys want to release it? Can you give us some clue?
All I can say is it is planned to be released very soon once the testing is complete and Apple approves the app. The decision was made to make some refinements and a better quality product than just ship it because its April on the calendar.
Thank you for your patience as you should not have top wait too much longer.
So sketchbook ink looks cool and all, but how about you fix SBP before you worry about a new product? As it stands, the app is unusable.
David,
Please make sure to report issues with SBP in order for use to research and address the issues.

Thanks for the reply shaan. I have submitted issues previously. Sorry to rain on the parade in here, I’ve just run out of patience w these products.
We rely on the feedback as there are so many user work flows and hardware as well as expectations to meet. While we want every single person that tries our products to be 110% completely satisfied and that it solves all their needs, we know that is not always realistic and we work to always improve and add new features and capabilities.
Thank you for sending feedback, hopefully you were detailed so we can understand and research the reported issues.
Best Regards,
Shaan
After a while even fine wine turns to vinegar! This app is a NO-SHOW!
