Customer Reviews

Easy to use with no annoying nuances

It's just what I wanted and expected. The text is in the objects (no worrying about grabbing a separate text object and dropping it up on top). Objects line-up, snap-to, resize, change aspect ratios, exc… Everything behaves like I'd expect as well, such as holding shift when resizing preserves the aspect ratio. Each object type has all the necessary configuration options. I almost paid $99 for Omnigraffle, but I'm glad I didn't.

This is a great app.

This app is awesome for the price. I have asked my whole development team to get on this app as it is so easy to use and much more affordable than the alternatives. The new update is impressive with so many new features. We got more than what we paid for already.
