  • Diagrams Look Nice, Super Buggy

    App is just generally buggy. Connections between notes are really tough to get to lie correctly. Routing is often really weird or just completely broken until you wiggle stuff around. Placeholder text sometimes shows up on the diagram. Undo queue is often totally wrong.

    I've played with lots of UML tools, and this one really stands out. It's both simple and fun - this makes it a tool I want to come back to, where I can just focus on accomplishing what I want. Really appreciated how fast it was to lay out and manipulate designs.
  • Great UML - Cannot Save

    This is an awesome UML board to do quick sketches of models with all the features you need in the moment. However, I cannot save a project. So for me, this is crucial for the amount of clients I have. Please fix these issues and it would easily be a five star app.
  • cute & useful class designer / notepad

    This is a clever little app that knows what it shoud focus on - class diagrams and explanatory text around those diagrams. you can almost treat it a bit like a word processor with embedded diagrams, i find i can construct nice little design explanations with it. It would be nice if it did multi-page or something equivalent, so i could hold a larger model, but in it's current form it's very tight and useful so it's hard to complain!
  • A Great Start

    This little app shows a lot of promise. It's great for sketching quick UML class diagrams with a minimum of effort. There are two areas where it badly needs improvement. First, it does a very poor job of following basic macOS file management conventions. For example, if you double click one of its documents, the Finder launches the app, but the app refuses to open the doccument. The only wan to open an existing document is from the File menu within the app. The second area where this app badly needs improvement is in the routing algorithm for class associations. The app sometimes routes these in crazy ways and the user has no way to nudge the lines into a more sensible position. Despite these two flaws, this is still a useful tool and is worth the 99 cents price. I hope the author continues to improve this very nice little app and addresses the issues I noted above.
  • A lovely little app

    Hold control, tap anywhere, and you get a thoughtfully designed modal to add an object. Do the same on a class object to add properties. And of course a simple drag to connect objects. It's limited on features, and the results look as disposable as an ink drenched napkin. Exactly what I wanted!
