OmniGraffle
Diagramming and vector drawing app for Mac, iPad and iPhone
What is OmniGraffle?
OmniGraffle is a diagramming and vector drawing app from The Omni Group for Mac, iPad and iPhone, used for flowcharts, wireframes and other precise diagrams. Documents are built from stencils, shapes and connected lines across multiple canvases and layers. It is sold as separate perpetual licenses for Mac and for iOS, each in Standard and Pro editions, or as a yearly subscription that covers the Pro version on all three devices.
OmniGraffle is a paid product with a free trial, starting at $59.99 one-time for iPhone and iPad; Mac from $149.99 one-time. See every plan
Good for
- Mac, iPad and iPhone users who want a native diagramming app
- Designers drawing wireframes and precise vector diagrams
- Buyers who prefer a perpetual license to a subscription
- People who need to open or hand over Microsoft Visio files
Worth knowing
- OmniGraffle runs only on Mac, iPhone and iPad; there is no Windows, Android or web version.
- Mac and iOS perpetual licenses are sold separately; only the $129.99 yearly subscription covers all three devices.
- Visio import and export, shared layers, artboards and automation need a Pro license or the subscription.
- A perpetual license covers one major version; the next major version is a paid upgrade, offered at a discount.
Key features
- Diagramming tools
- Shapes connect with straight, orthogonal, curved or Bézier lines that stay attached, and on the Mac an outline tab builds a flowchart from an indented list.
- Stencils and templates
- The Resource Browser on Mac holds a collection of stencils and templates and searches Stenciltown, the vendor's library of stencils shared by users.
- Canvases and layers
- A document holds several canvases in fixed, flexible or infinite size modes, organized with layers. Shared layers and artboard layers are Pro features.
- Wireframing and vector drawing
- A pen tool, a point editor, and grouping, snapping and alignment tools support wireframes and vector graphics. Pro adds shape combinations and blend modes.
- Visio import and export
- Pro reads Microsoft Visio files, templates and stencils in formats such as .vsd and .vsdx, and exports diagrams in Visio's XML format.
- Automation
- Pro runs JavaScript automation and plug-ins on both Mac and iOS, plus AppleScript on Mac, and objects can trigger actions such as switching canvas.
