Editors’ Choice

Virtually limitless in its potential, Concepts is the perfect home for ideas big and small. Its infinite canvas is as capable for doodling as it is for diagramming, and support for layers and custom objects can transform a basic brainstorm into a detailed document.

Smooth App

I don’t write many reviews, since I never have time. But this app is so smooth on my iPad Pro. I actually just do light sketching for work (i study Physics), I don’t even need all its advanced features (e.g. layers, brush creation, etc.), but theres something about the automatic color palettes for your strokes that makes me feel I can quickly sketch something that I can understand (color coding for me is important), and I cannot do this on OneNote. I used it for one semester for note-taking, and it was quite nice, but I think sketching ideas is the best use for this app. The rules is very intuitive to use, and the best one I’ve seen in an app, and it’s something I need for my work (precise ratios u know); I wish the measurement setting was a bit easier to access rather than having to go into the same sub-menu over and over again, but I really appreciate what this app is doing. Though I don’t even need the pro version, I would love to get it just to support the developers (we’ll see).

I have rarely had issues and the rendering of the strokes is so much better than OneNote (I still admire OneNote, but I always feel my work looks ugly in it). The fact you can control smoothness of your stroke is another thing I love of this app (I would like to see a quick slider on the side, instead of having to go into the submenu evverytime, but still, it’s pretty decent).

I’m sure the UX can improve, though it will take time since it’s already so good.

Amazing app, one request on new update?

Concepts team, I am constantly stunned at how you just keep making this app better and better. It literally qualifies under “such a joy to use that it actually inspires me to want to go into it, and make things.” THANK YOU.
I do have one request in regards to the newest update, which is amazing: when I pull a drawing into a different “section”, I cannot pull that drawing out of that “section,“ (and then it is stuck there), and put it into a different section, the way you used to be able to grab any drawing/file and just hold to the left or right, and it would go into the differently swiped section when they were on separate pages.
It would be oh, so nice if I could take a drawing from any group, from any section, hold, and drag it up to “on this iPad,” and place it into a different section, or perhaps, long, pressing a drawing/file, and within that little drop-down menu, not unlike, say, Goodnotes, they would also be the word “move,” aside from just copy, allowing you to move it anywhere you..
Or is there a way to do this and I am somehow missing it?
Thank you again so much, I hope you are able to respond to this question, is the only thing that has been hanging me up just a little bit with the new update, but it is otherwise, so absolutely amazing. It is usurping Procreate for me in my professional capacity in many ways, particularly on the creative process flow, to be sure.
