noteit - bff widget
authentic ratingPeople genuinely love drawing notes by hand and seeing them on their partner's widget, and for long-distance relationships it is a warm connection, almost like Snapchat for those not allowed to have it. But the app badly lets people down on reliability, notes often fail to send with an error, the widget does not refresh in the background so you have to open it manually, and long 30-40 minute drawings sometimes just will not send. A sore spot is streaks, they charge to repair them, and after 200 days the blooming vine effect stops working.
Reviews concretely describe the same combo, hand-drawn notes and messages appearing on the partner's widget, and across several languages complain about the same send failures. The five-stars are short, but the other ratings are dense with detail about streaks, the vine effect and crashes, so there is no sign of inflation.
