This will probably fit your needs for the usual Visio type stuff like flowcharts and network diagrams, but it’s not the greatest thing for floor plans. There are some areas where the UI seems to be lacking and some minor bugs that can get annoying. However, I bought it anyway because it seems to be the best and perhaps only non-subscription app that will draw automatically labeled dimension lines in a reasonable manner.I normally use Affinity Designer for everything, but Affinity is lacking the ability to draw dimension lines and insert measurements. So I’ve ended up having to look elsewhere for floor plans, and I didn’t like any of the “super automatic” floor plan apps.If you want to do general artwork, get Affinity Designer or something else because the bezier curve handle editing UI in TouchDraw is pretty badly designed. You have to use the press-and-hold context menu for this. In general the app relies too heavily on context and pull-down menus to be convenient, and the “modifier key” idiom is too slow. It also has touch zones for handles and such that are way too large for use with a stylus.People who only use this to create flowcharts and conceptual diagrams will likely have a much better experience with this app, but floorplans are awkward to create and artwork would likely be more awkward along with missing a number of features (like fill patterns and stroke brushes).

I’ve been using Touchdraw since 2011-ish (first version). I think it’s the best app out there to make diagrams and I’ve tried many (from Inspiration, Visio, and others). I’m a teacher and I use it mainly to make graphic organizers for class and for personal use (I’m a very visual learner and I like mapping out what I learn). I like the app because it’s powerful- it has a lot of features like different text formatting options, visual element options (arrow heads, shadows, etc), and editing options (like grouping objects, connections). I also like that you can create libraries so you have your most used formatted objects easily accessible. There is a slight learning curve because it’s powerful. But, once you have a work flow down, making diagrams is really easy.Anyways, I writing this review because I want to support the developers. There has been too many times that a good app that I regularly use no longer get updated and becomes unavailable. I hope that doesn’t happen with this app. The developers came out with a new version after about 10 years and I appreciate that they haven’t gone to a subscription model. I will gladly pay for new versions, even across different devices types (desktop).

I have used the original TouchDraw for about five years. It has been so useful that last year my company bought iPads and TouchDraw for all of our locations. We recently needed an additional copy and found that the original TouchDraw has been replaced by TouchDraw 2. The person responsible for this in our main office saw a review stating that drawings created in TouchDraw 1 could not be moved to TouchDraw 2, along with a couple of other complaints. The developer’s response to that review confirmed what I suspected. I downloaded TouchDraw 2 and easily moved our drawings and libraries to the to the new app. I had a few questions and minor issues so I emailed the developer through the “Send Feedback” selection in the app settings. He responded promptly and in a series of emails over several days he addressed all of my questions and issues, and even released a new version of the app that included a new feature that is very useful for us. This is a 5-star app. The developer’s support deserves a 10!

It is inexpensive. No test drive (?)Its been an OK app, fairly simple in features that had gone a bit mundane as others catch up. N real update in a long time before this, but its also one I’ve rarely used. The app itself has had more of a controlled draw feel to it than many & that ain’t bad if you’re coming from an engineering or vaguely drafting environment. If you’re looking for something like this, its a nice to to support a developer who isn’t on the subscription train. I got this update, only to discover it involves a one-time, “lifetime” fee (* much preferred to a subscription model *). The dilemma: I’m not sure this app is useful enough to me as I have several others. I like the idea of the app more than use it, & I bought the iPad version because it was not by subscription. * I should have noticed “TouchDraw 2,” for my part in this. *It showed up as a “update” & replaced my earlier version.
