Android, I was and have been looking for a Vector etc. app... *TL/DR: CONCEPTS was and seems LEGIT when i test drove it and vetted it for my use case (geometric, vector work ideas i think (i have not studied graphic design so i do not know very much if at all (presumably) regarding appropriate apps or lingo for my use case). PROS: PRIVACY RESPECTING - NO TRACKERS ADS ETC. - The Company responded to my review on Google expressing their value importance in respecting User Privacy etc. - they seem motivated by tgeir Craft, Quality, and doing & providing Transparent work/app & service. No hidden agendas from what i read, sensed, and gathered per that Concepts Employee or Dev...

UPGRADES - PAY OPTIONS: -NOT SUBSCRIPTION LIMITED -Various Sets of tools one can purchase a la carte (as needed); IIRC $2-$12± (tool bundles)

  • bundles available
  • total cost for ALL the tools etc was IIRC $50 which, ... I dont know if I could express well how much I am BROKE, PREFER FOSS (ESP. for Non-proprietary lock-in prevention (MY DATA IS MY DATA & I DO KOT WANT TO LOSE IT because some Proprietary company changed policiea, code, software stopped functioning, etc.), avoid paying for software UNLESS it is worth it, used, of value (i.e. I will happily pay or aponaor devs for FOSS apps...)... MY POINT IS: If I were remotely active even as a hobbyist doing Grqphic Design (what I recall Concepts being great for me was in Vector-related functionalities it included, featured, etc. ...)

$50 seems like a (relative) STEAL–

  • Open File Formats (IIRC) - Import, Export, etc.
  • Privacy respecting
  • Company Values prioritize quality product and service, active development, and no shady data harvestimg sharimg etc. (Tho, VERIFY in case that has changed)
  • Cost - VERY FAIR (IMHFO (IMHFrugalO))
  • Tablets, S-Pen and Stylus (Wacom etc.) Android, support ...

I am Looking up Inkscape for Android right now and realized Concepts was not.listed as an alternative and, I dont know why Injust really like the app and company and devs based on my little experience. *[TL/DR FINISHED]

...AutoDesk is cool and great and fantastic for what it is, i dont think it is geared for Vector work primarily at least (i am not versed in Graphic Design, was trying to get some geometric ideas with ratios etc. Down on "paper" and, I imagine Inkscape is probably a more-fit-for-purpose app for that(/my) use case.

Super flexible, infinite canvas. Natural-looking vector strokes can be manipulated anytime, even pencil, watercolor, etc. Really freeing. Fast and stable.
