Not worth it & falsely advertised
This app's creator says his 2 books are included in this app which is not true. And otherwise, the app offers very little editorial content for most of the sites it displays. Definitely NOT worth $6.99!!
Great App
I bought this app despite the negative reviews that I read and I'm glad that I did. It provides basic design principles along with examples to reinforce the point. All of the 10 sections are introduced and have about 15 subcategories each. Not every design is analyzed but enough are to give you a good idea of what makes good design. At the time of this writing there were two fresh idea section adds. I hope there is more to come. I like too that you can save the examples to a folder. The app has crashed a couple times but it hasn't bother me too much.
Think Twice
I've had this app for nearly a year, and I have yet to see one update come through. Content in this app is a little thin compared to the $6.99 price.
