It IS a great app

As a designer, I find this to be an extremely useful app. I am on an ipad2, and it works great. Its fast enough, its well-designed, it allows you to compare fonts with each other with your own text. You can search in all the ways designers search for fonts online. And it works offline, too.

There is a learning curve, but if you tap around enough, you will figure it out. Its definitely worth the price.
