Grafio turns 10. Its been around for a decade already - polished, efficient and with more features than ever before.

Grafio is not a tool for professionals only. Its smooth learning curve allows everyone to convey their ideas visually and with ease. Hundreds of thousands use Grafio worldwide, due to its simplicity and affordability.

There are no ongoing subscription costs or upgrade charges. Once you purchase it, you have access to an ongoing number of libraries (shapes and symbols) and a multitude of new features with every update.

Since Grafio was released 10 years ago, there have been 3 major upgrades, including dozens of new object libraries and a fresh new look to the layout.

To begin, simply draw a rectangle, circle or an ellipse and see what makes drawing with Grafio so easy and fun.  Grafio can recognize and replace any of the shapes mentioned with a perfectly looking one for your diagram or schematic, ready to be used over and over.

Drag and drop objects on the canvas for more complex diagrams. Make connections, add text labels and images.

SHAPE RECOGNITION
The shapes you draw are automatically closed and straightened, all basic shapes are instantly recognized. The lines you draw between shapes are automatically turned into connections thanks to our shape recognition magic.

STENCILS
Some diagrams require more advanced objects. Grafio provides thousands of shapes that you can easily drag in from the library. In addition, you can embed images from your Camera Roll into shapes and connect them to your other shapes.

AUDIO RECORDINGS
Recording audio notes to your shapes can be a way for you to collect your thoughts and include them in the finishing product, or as a reference.

Pros and cons of Grafio 4 - Diagram Maker app for iPhone and iPad

Grafio 4 - Diagram Maker app good for

This is a great tool. probably the best on iPad. i use it everyday. i am now waiting for gdrive integration like with dropbox and also synchronisation mechanism like ithoughts. a desktop application at least viewer or web viewer could be great.
Shame that gifs cannot be imported or pasted. Would also be good to have A1 and A0 paper format....
This application simply works and let me build pretty graphs easily for more than a year now ! Is it possible to have support for stylus : - adonit pro - pogo connect ? There are connected via bluetooth to the ipad and they have one or two buttons which could be used to change between the write mode and the selection mode for example. Or for undo/redo... These stylus have an API for developers. I use Noteshelf app which supports these stylus. It really saves time.
Very good app, easy to use and possibility to do a lot of configurations. For a 5 stars, need the function to link a shape into a diagram to another diagram, and secondary to manage all diagrams in folders and sub folders Waiting for next updated versions!
Français: (Anglais plus bas) Après avoir essayé de nombreuses autres applis de création de "Flow Charts", Grafio est SANS AUCUN DOUTE la meilleure... Elle vaut largement son prix. -------------------------------------------- English: After trying out many other "Flow Charting" apps, I can honestly say that Grafio is - by far - the ABSOLUTE BEST ONE !! Worth every penny and more.
This app helped me a lot during my studing in university. I could to make many diagram and fluxogram. Nowadays Im still doing some tasks with this app.

Some bad moments

This software is very complete and beautiful. It will be very useful if you want to make sketch for a presentation. I dont like it at all because I use this kind of apps to sketch "on the fly" during meetings or to think about complex stuff I want to clean in my mind. Make ontology the most of time. I think this app is more to finish the work, a sexy way more than to think about stuffs. Like most of the time, an app to "visual" design, not to JUST really "design". :(
O aplicativo é muito bom, mas está cheio de bugs chatos. Tem que ficar abrindo e fechando a todo momento. Por favor arrumem isso! The app is very good, but is full of boring bugs. We have to keep opening and closing all time. Please fix is asap!
Theoretically good, BUT the last update causes my most important file to crash when moving elements. The app also crashes when trying to send support email, contact on website doesnt work and support link here shows a 404. Great, right before the exam.
The new version doesnt open on my iPad Air! When I tap on it, it looks like it is going to open then almost immediately it closes again. What gives?
I find the interface for this application very well thought of with a lot of flexibility and very intuitive to use. Very powerful tool if you intend to use it for personal needs only. However, its inability to export to any format other than its own renders it useless in a work environment where other iPad flowchart applications are excelling. Maybe the back-end layer is totally incompatible with the other formats. If it is the case, it is very unfortunate. With that ability, 5 stars would have been the minimum rating I would have considered.
The interface itself works great. The tool is well thought out and user friendly. However, the connection points for the graphic items often tend to be in very weird locations that are off centre, making it difficult to align items properly. Furthermore the export quality to JPEG and PNG is dismal and leaves a lot to be desired. I personally cant use these in my presentations given how awful they look. The concept is great, but it needs a serious update for anyone wanting to do any professional looking work to port it over to programs like keynote or PowerPoint. Offer better compression settings, even if they take a bit longer to produce quality results and this would be a great program. Otherwise this is only good for personal use and useless for professionals.
