Can we get a pay once pricing?

@danirogerc Hey Daniel - it's something we've considered, but it would have to be quite expensive compared with the annual price. Long term it just doesn't help us support our customers.

Okay. I cannot see myself ever paying that much -- every year -- being a one-fee only Notability and Affinity Photo/Designer user..

@lyondhur Hi Lyondhur – that's the wonderful thing about the App Store - there are so many amazing apps available and we're glad to be part of those options. We absolutely believe we have a unique combination of features and it's something we've spent years developing with many creative professionals.

I was really waiting for a note taking app for the Moleskine suite of apps. I’m a huge Timepage user and am starting to use Actions more too. I was hoping it would be a text/typing note taking app. This is awesome, but on my iPhone, drawing and writing is quite annoying. On the iPad it’s a dream. This definitely seems more iPad focused. Is there a plan to add text in the style that Paper has?

@iamjmw Hey Joseph, thanks for the kind words we really appreciate it! We've worked really hard on our suite of apps. We have an update pending approval with Apple now that fixes an issue with finger input on some iPhones - that will be live shortly so will hopefully make things better for you! We have more iPhone-specific optimisation planned too. We investigated text input but couldn't find a way to make it good enough. It's something we will continue to experiment with though. Mind if I ask what you'd use text input for generally? Would it be annotating drawings or list making or bigger document creation? Thanks again!

@hamey - Sorry for the late response. I'm not sure if you are still reading these, but I figured I would still answer. I really was just hoping for a note taking app in the visual style of the TimePage and Actions app so I was excited when I saw this. This app looks amazing, but seeing as I don't really use my iPad as much (until I get the new iPad Pro, lol) it just currently doesn't have a place on my phone until Apple allows the Apple Pencil to work on the iPhone (now that the iPad mini allows Apple Pencil we could see the Pencil working on the iPhone soon!) So since I mainly use my iPhone and a stylus input isn't great on the iPhone, I just don't have a need for this app. But if I used the iPad Pro this app would be amazing, which hopefully I will get a new Pro soon to use it.

Like it. I have Timepage and Actions installed on my iPad and yesterday I added Flow to this collection. Overall the app is fantastic. It has a cool UI and some unique functions like a dock, infinite canvas, and tools customization. But compared to other players Flow lacks some important functions like straight lines, auto shapes and maybe layers. Flow also has one really annoying issue with rendering thick lines. I discovered this yesterday with all the tools. I wish this issue will be resolved. At this moment I’ll stay with my current toolset but will check Flow a bit later. Oh, and one more thing. Please add integration between Flow and Actions (now I can add a sketch to Timepage). This will be a fantastic functionality!

@vladimir_kondriianenko Hi Vladimir, thanks for the comments! We are working on a fix for the line rendering right now so there should be a fix available shortly. Thanks for the suggestions - please feel free to vote for these/discuss on our feature request board (http://bonobo.canny.io/flow).

I like it. I drew my first sketch without any difficulties using just my finger:) I believe I can achieve more results if I will use special pen. Can you please recommend what kind of tools are more productive to use this app? I am eager to start drowning my first clothing line

@nikjara Great! We recommend Apple Pencil for the best experience on iPad. We're also looking into support for other styluses.

Looks good! Continuing the moleskin aesthetic into digital could be tricky but from the looks of this they've pulled it off.

@ajmcgr Thanks Alex, it's certainly a fun design challenge!

Hi Bem, I would like to ask if the app allow the user to export their art as a vector that can be use in Adobe Illustrator?

Sorry, typed your name wrongly Ben.

@wubing80 Hi Qiu! We currently don't have this feature but it's something we are considering. The underlying vector data would be fairly straightforward for us to add an export, but the raster (stroke style) wouldn't be able to come in, so we need to experiment with how useful it would be (your drawing could end up looking quite strange when they are without their pen styles, but could still be useful).

@wubing80 No problem! :)

I'm not clear on how (and if ) handwritten notes work in Flow, is OCR an option and can you search notes and organize them. The Moleskine studio site doesn't provide details.
