I can’t stress enough how Apple’s Freeform is a joy to use. Is this a sleeper hit? If you don’t use it, do yourself a favour and try it. It’s the most intuitive, frictionless diagramming app out there on the Mac. And the iPad.
@numericcitizen Thanks. I'll have a play around on my iPad Mini tomorrow and then look on my MacBook.
@numericcitizen I’m curious what other apps you’ve used as I do not find it intuitive at all. Certainly less buggy than when it launched.
@BenSouthwood I do find some lag in content update when working two people on the same canvas, 1-3 sec, max.
@ChrisJWilson Diagrams for Mac. I find Freeform to be intuitive... for example: when selecting an object, you get the tools to popup at the right place with intuitive suggestions and right placement. It's subtle, and I'm not sure my reply really convery my feelings here.
@numericcitizen I suppose I'm comparing with other whiteboarding applications like murral and miro which both feel far more intuative from my experience. There are some really nice touches connected to sharing via imessage and stuff (in your message chat it says if someone's made an edit) but I can't see a way to see what they have changed. To me, it's fine. It's like reminders to other to do apps. You can share something simple with a friend. But I'd far rather use miro or mural.
@numericcitizen It’s brilliant, especially for quick brainstorming. I’ve also seen guys use it in the classroom for discussion and stuff as a whiteboard.
