Blows other presentation apps outa the water!
PowerPoint, Keynote, and Prezi can’t do presentations like this!
Being able to easily animate data visuals in the presentation saves hours of time than PowerBI, Qlik, or Tableau at a fraction of the cost.
Good to see indie developers outperform the old “productivity” apps.

Download for Dediu
No reviews in the last 4 years. Huh. Well 4 years later, Horace is even more of a legend than before.

Hope to see more investment and growth in this soon.

The future of data-rich storytelling
Watch the examples in the app. Asymco has been leading the way with great examples.

Disappointing
The idea is great and I had/have high hopes.

But it’s confusing and difficult to use. It also seemed to glitch out and wouldn’t allow for re-login after I upgraded to Pro.

Turns out I had to re-download and they charged me twice, for which I am actively pursuing a refund.

I’m a fan of Dediu, I went to the Airshow and I believe in the concept of Perspective. But it’s been a rough experience so far unfortunately.

Great App and Service
it's pretty amazing to be able to use an app that you click with. Looking forward to great things to come from this app and company.

It works just as it says and actually the more.

Great app
I've been using this to watch Horace Dediu from Asymco's perspective presentations now that its finally come to the iPhone. Absolutely blown away by how great it is. I see why Horace is excited about it. Will definitely be looking to get the authoring kit when I have a need to create a presentation like this.

Question
Who do you erase a powerpiont? Because I didn't buy the pro because it cost 49.99 and I don't have that much money!

… towards "Knowledge Navigator"
I set aside some pretty serious time to play with this app and am really impressed with what founder Farshad Nayeri and his team at Pixxa have created in Perspective...

— a fantastic iPad only tool to author (create) and present (distribute) clear, concise and highly visual stories (well, they're more like 'experiences') using data

— a full 'platform' (consisting of a versatile application + robust backend infrastructure) to distribute/deliver those stories in a variety of ways

— core technology that enables authors / educators / presenters and their intended audiences (delivered either live-in-the-room or to iPads after-the-fact) to physically interact and explore data in highly engaging and visually interactive ways (simply by touching the iPad screen)

It's not for everyone.

— you need to be chill with the obvious constraints of "iPad only" authoring but you can use a variety of other tools and platforms to create and collect all the assets you need for inclusion within a Perspective presentation / "experience".

— my guess is that early adopters and innovators in the graphic & visual arts, educational/ontological design (you know, those TED-type story tellers ;) and corportate communications & training fields will embrace this puppy in fairly short order. Not everyone will author with it... but everyone can consume, experience, share, replay and present Perspective content and experiences that are created by others (authors, specialists, scientists, experts, sales trainers, instructors, gurus, etc.)

Perspective goes way beyond what Keynote and PowerPoint can (and should) do for telling highly interactive, engaging and easily distributable stories based on complex data. I think it's destined to become the defacto iPad app (and platform) for creating, telling and distributing these kinds of stories to iPads far and wide (as well as "real-time-live" by presenters in rooms — whether they were the original authors of the content or not).

Call me crazy but I think what Pixxa has done here goes more than a couple of giant steps forward towards what Apple originally envisioned in that "Knowledge Navigator" video produced oh so many years ago… or at least, towards key elements of it.
