Description
From the makers of the bestselling iPad app "Penultimate". Use our highly-acclaimed inking technology to hand-write quick thank you notes, doodles, or love letters. Then send them by email, post them to Facebook, or to Twitter! Simple and easy to use. Your writing looks like your handwriting in beautiful black gel ink.
All your notes are saved in the app even after you've sent them for you to look at or send again.
Got an iPad? Check out Penultimate, featuring a full note, notebook and sketching experience built on the same great ink technology.
What's New in Version 1.2
• Restored the fan-favorite "two-finger double tap" to undo. The current shake gesture will continue to work as well.
• Due to Facebook policy changes, Facebook note uploads can no longer create Wall posts, but notes will still be posted to your Photos.

Fun and simple, but has 2 big issues
I read some of the other commenters discussing about the undo method, and whether shaking or double-taping works better. The answer is none, a button is always preferred, and some apps use the shake-to-undo only when the interface is too complex to fit any more buttons.
Please, include an undo button (something like brushes will do). The 2-finger tap is just too jumpy and annoying to use.
Despite the undo method, the app is simple and fun to use. Saves the notes automatically and let's you post on twitter or email it.
Another issue is the quality of the exported image. If you use this app to take notes and write relatively small then you won't really be able to read anything.
Nice app but definitely needs updates
I've been trying to find some handwriting app for my iTouch that is similar to Penultimate for iPad, so I found this one, surprisingly but the same production company. I really like its simplicity, i.e., white page with black ink, which is real nice (that is mainly why I don't like Use Your Handwriting that much because it is just too colorful and showy for me, though it is very user-friendly). I first thought I had to get a pen to use this app, but the two-finger double-tap delete function actually makes finger writing easier as compared to using a pen. But I would really like to see another delete functions such as an eraser or a delete button, which will make deleting so much easier. But what bothers me the most at this moment is that the notes you wrote cannot be viewed in it's entirety unless you export it to you email or Facebook etc., and this is really inconvenient if I want to read what I have just written down and continue editing it. Overall this app is quite decent, but the features mentioned above are desperately needed. Hope we could see them in the coming updates. 3 stars for now.
Nice app. Could benefit from some basic updates.
It's an OK app. It's free, but I wish it had followed the nice look/design of this group's other app for the iPad, Penultimate. I would pay for an iPhone version of Penultimate!!
Would like to see:
1) an undo all button
2) another pen thickness (there's only 1!)
3) easier button to clear or undo the last step the two finger double tap is annoying to do.
4) would be nice to be able to "pinch" zoom in/out since the drawing area is actually larger than the screen (nice feature) however, to see how much room you have by zooming could be useful
