Worthless and Unsupported
This app does not have any documentation to help you use the app. The Janome designs are not at all creative or useful and you can not get rid of them. Save your money.
Bad upgrades
No longer connects to Dropbox for exporting
This app no longer connects to Dropbox or any other export app. It will not export my embroidery files.
