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.
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.
Great app for productivity
I have been using this app religiously for the last 6 months while I have been in my masters program. It has been really useful to import slides from lectures and have such a large space to work, take notes, make shapes (actually just anatomy drawings that I store in there to use in different drawing pages) etc. There are only 3 things that I can criticize about the app. 1. Probably the most annoying issue I have dealt with is that you need to import slides one by one. Typically this isn’t a big deal but in a time crunch it can take away from study time just to import them all. 2. While I am actively using a drawing I like to keep the grid on and once that unit is complete I turn the grid off. There is something satisfying about it I can’t explain but lately when I do this it crashes the app and whatever changes I made to the drawing just before turning off the grid gets wiped. 3. Probably the most unreasonable gripe I have is that there is a cap on how much you can use one drawing. I totally get that this is due to the vectors and technological constraints. I am aware there are workarounds but I would rather just adjust how I use it than go down that rabbit hole. Overall it has been a great app that makes studying enjoyable and generally very easy. If there could be a way to import an entire pdf at once that would be awesome and if the grid issue could be fixed that would save some of my sanity.
