## What is Grafio 4?

Grafio turns 10. It's 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.

### 1/5 — simple functions too hard to find

*2026-03-01, version 4.3.28*

I couldn’t figure out how to get a text in a textbox in one line and that should not be that much difficult at all. normally, you would expect to tap on the window and then it should be sizable in a way that treats the text, depending on the size of the letter to be in one line or not. not so with Grafio. instead of that you get this eight dots full of functionalities. confusing app, no thank you.

### 5/5 — 很好用

*2025-03-02*

希望有更多的功能给我们惊喜

### 3/5 — CORREGIR

*2024-12-07, version 4.3.28*

Cuando se toca dos veces con el dedo fuera del lienzo se abre una caja de texto/capa aún debajo de las flechas deshacer/rehacer. Aunque no se escriba en la caja de texto aún así se forma una capa invisible que se puede evidenciar en la herramienta capas. Ademas debería poder deshabilitar/habilitar el doble toque con el dedo. Habilitar funciones para Apple Pencil y Apple Pencil Pro.

### 5/5 — The best app to draw in iOS

*2024-11-13, version 4.3.27*

This is the best App to draw in iOS

### 2/5 — Sporo błędów

*2024-07-15, version 4.3.27*

Aplikacja posiada sporo błędów a jedynym plusem jest równie spora ilość dodatkowych ikon. Łączenie obiektów to koszmar.

### 5/5 — Benutze sie nicht oft.

*2024-07-01, version 4.3.27*

Aber gerne. Gute Bedienung. Schöne app

### 1/5 — Can’t unsubscribe!

*2024-06-14, version 4.3.25*

There’s no way to get your money back! Subscription doesn’t even show up on the Apple subscriptions site.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2024-03-29, version 4.3.25*

Best chart program on stock!

### 5/5 — Três pratique

*2024-03-28, version 4.3.24*

Un vrai plaisir à utiliser avec le pencil Apple.

Update 2024 : plusieurs années que j’utilise cette application et elle reste ma préférée pour un prix modique ! 
Utilisée actuellement pour des wireframes

### 3/5 — Changing my rating

*2024-02-28, version 4.3.24*

I gave it a low rating due to the issues this app previously had. Gladly most are resolved. I appreciate developers who listen and work to improve a their product. I love this app and have for years.  That Could use some improvement. A big market and one that I’m currently in is architecture and interior design. I want to ask and encourage developers to add furniture(chairs, tables, couches, kitchen island etc) elements for doors, pocket doors, swing doors, windows, kitchen appliances, etc. everything that would accommodate an average floor plan. This would be great to do a quick sketch. Just wanted to put it out their. Could even be a paid 1.99 feature. Thanks for the great work. ——————————————————————————————————- ————————- Some icons don’t import properly. They often are off the screen behind the undo button. A terrible wastes of time. Doesn’t work. Occasionally, the app just closes while working. This was a great app, I hope the developers continue to support this app through all of the iOS iterations. I hope that for all of their products. Ven diagrams don’t work. UX Doesn’t work, marketing section doesn’t work, etc. so basically everything I need no longer works. Please stand behind your product and fix. *REVISED* This last update did the trick. It had that secret sauce and now all is working perfectly. Thank you to the developers for supporting their apps. Wonderful! If you could give some attention to Vidra that too would be amazing. Enable the ability for elements to move independently in any direction, and overall enhance the functionality. Much appreciated. Great job! Thank you
