Sad lack of diagram / drawing applcation in iPhone

While there are many great apps for the iPhone, there appears to be a lack of quality drawing apps.

There’s 101 painting apps, but very few vector drawing apps – and as an engineer, that’s something that would e very useful for me. Of those that do exist, they tend to be very basic – not created by experienced programmers – and are at the mercy of the accuracy of your finger.

What would be great would be a vector-based diagram creation program, where you could move and edit shapes, create objects, and drag them around. Snappable grids and zoom for fine editing should also help overcome fat-finger inaccuracies.

And – export to a format where you can continue editing on your PC or Mac – rather than only exporting as a photo (although that’s still useful) would also be great.

But… For the moment, the best on offer is iDrawing. And the author’s own screenshots in the App Store show what a long way this has to go!
