Innovation 4 Everyone

N o, it's not deja vu, I had reviewed this app back in March . However, after I updated several apps on my iPad, I noticed that this one didn't look the same.

Add annotations: Note - The annotation will be visible. You write a message in the text box. Spotlight - The annotation is invisible, unless you hover the mouse over it. Great for placing a link over an image in the video. For any of t
