Something new. It's still in Beta but with time and support could be worthwhile. Enjoy and spread the word.

Your comment is useless if you don't point to the problems you encountered. You did encounter problems using the application, right?

First of all, its reaaaaaaaally slow...
Second, it has no part editor, so, you have only resistors and diodes in the library for to build your project.
Third, the user interface is very uncomfortable and unpractical; it's intuitive but, again, so slow.
Fourth, the way of tracing tracks/placing planes is very unintuitive: you can mess and f#ck up the whole project in two "clicks"...

Something good: you can export the image in PDF format.

True dat. I hope in time app will be better. At least someone started something new that might be very good in the future. I hope. :wink:

It's not a bad idea to have a different usefull program in the cellphone to play with...
But, for now, we keep waiting...
