1. 5/5Did just what I needed

   I needed to create a decision tree to analyze a situation. I checked the App Store for apps to create org charts and flow charts. There are so many! It's hard to know which to choose. I read a few reviews and descriptions, and decided to try Flowchart Designer 3. The app opens with a tutorial on how to start creating charts. The UI is straightforward. If you have used any kind of drawing app on the Mac, you will be familiar with it. The feature set in the free version is pretty limited, but that's OK. There are enough features to create basic flowcharts, org charts - and decision trees. People who complain that it's too limited have to remember that it's free. For a few more dollars you can unlock more features. I was able to get up to speed quickly, develop the decision tree, and submit it to the team for review. If I continue to use Flowchart Designer 3, I will probably pay to unlock the additional features.

2. 5/5easy to use Mac touch pad friendly

   There are a few free flow chart and design apps for the iPad, and while they do the job for me, I was thrilled to discover a Mac-compatible alternative. That moment was the best of my life. This program is a pretty straightforward chart or flowchart, and I can use it on my iPad, iPhone, and Mac mini. It doesn't matter what approach to mind mapping you're trying to adopt. Dad has all the fundamental features necessary for easily producing a professional-looking flowchart. Obviously, I shelled out for the full version, and I couldn't be happier; please keep improving flow chart designer; it's a fantastic tool. ~ Robert Smith, policy Manager

3. 4/5Nearly perfect

   This is a very powerful and intuitive tool for making a wide variety of great looking flow charts. The customization options are complete and easily accessible. Alignment, snap, line styles, colors, sizing - it’s all there. The only problem I’ve found is with text. For every object type including the text tool itself, the text alignment option (left, right, center, justify) is broken. If you ever de-center text you can never center it again because the center option does not work. Thankfully, center is the default so all text objects are initially centered. The fee for purchasing the full set of shapes is well worth the $7.99 one-time price. I hope the text alignment issue gets fixed, then this app will be perfect.

4. 2/5Just Kinda OK

   Don't expect much from this app. First, it only comes with a few "containers" - i.e. rectangles, for shapes. You'd have to pay $8 for a very basic handful of additional shapes. There functionality problems as well. You can't (at least I couldn't find a way) to attach text to a Container. I had to create a seperate Text box and manually move it over the Container but then, you can't "Group" the text box and container so everytime you move something, you have to move both individually, realign them, center them, etc. Most of my time was spent repetitively moving and aligning boxes and text. Colors are pretty bad as well and the Themes don't work - the colors you expect are not what shows up. I chose a black background Container with white text and I got a purple gradient with black text. There's probably more I could comment on but I have to toss this app for something that doesn't waste my time doing over and over again. If you need a VERY basic flowchart - and I mean basic, this will give you something but it has a long way to go for it to be of any use. And the $8 is kind of an insult for what it does. Get your app functional before trying to soak us for a couple of bucks.

5. 5/5OMG FINALLY

   I feel like I’ve been searching forever for a good flow charting app on the iPad. Every time I searched I found either things that had subscriptions or was a “mind mapper”. I don’t need anything that requires that many features and updates that I need monthly updates. So I should just be able to buy something. And I finally stumbled across Flowchart Designer 3 and it is perfect for my needs. I honestly could have gotten away with the free version but I wanted to support the developer and I encourage others to do the same.
