Voicethread review

So overall, the app was decent. It did its job, allowing me to post pictures in a slide show, and then comment on them with text, audio, and video, while also allowing doodling on the pictures. However, the execution of the app is very poor, as you are only allowed to comment a certain amount of voicethreads before you cannot comment on anymore. This is not discussed anywhere, and you are not warned. One of the major glitches was that the app did not keep the order of the pictures I entered in. I didn't not notice until I was halfway through my audio recording, making me restart. Another major glitch is the privacy settings of the voicethread a created on an iPad. Occasionally, a voicethread will be set to private, with no way of changing it from the iPad. This is fixable, but still a nuisance. The app also crashes with out warning quite frequently.
