    I thought this would make a great addition to my Apple collection. Was thinking I could use this as a daily journal/planner that I could carry daily. I ended up returning as I didn’t find it useful. I found most apps that I used for this iPad were formatted for the iPhone so they don’t appear full screen. Or if stretched you lose clarity. That was a deal breaker for me.

    Paying a premium for the mini size versus the regular ipad, but for those who want a small footprint it is excellent.
