Acorn Reviews

Acorn is a stand-out product I recommend all the time, to anyone who needs to do simple illustration or photo editing on the Mac. It's my go-to image editor, one of only four apps that sits in the toolbar of my Finder.

Whilst it renders to bitmap images, Acorn's internal format allows you to preserve vector layers of shapes and text over the top. So it's a replacement for simple vector editors - I reach for it ahead of Sketch.

As a technical achievement, it's very impressive (speaking as a dev with 40 years experience). The Acorn filters and operations are blindingly fast. Often, you forget it's doing something complicated because the experience is so smooth.

I'm someone who has to dive into using a tool suddenly then often doesn't get back to it for weeks. Acorn's highly usable and intuitable interface makes this easy.

I struggle to find fault as it's such a thoughtfully polished product. The only complaint I'd have is that their App Store strategy is to release new versions with a limited time 50% upgrade. I'm pretty sure this is an Apple limit that they cannot offer a discounted upgrade directly to users of previous versions.

I use it for image editing, simple fixups, logo bitmap editor, and minor page layout with text and shapes.

How easy everything is! It is simple to use, especially for beginners. I really enjoy using this application regularly.

I have note found any dislikes. This is a great app.

It is affordable and easy to use. Try acorn first.

It works great with marketing. It works great for posting pictures.

Of Acorn I really like the ease it provides when editing, it is a simple editor where I can edit minor projects whenever I need to. I love the circle text tool and the text on a path tool, make it easy to get my text exactly how I want it to look like. Basically, Acorn has all the photoshop tools, but less complicated and cheaper, which is amazing because if you have experience on the design fields, you can have amazing results with a simple software like this.

I think my problem with Acorn is that it is not available por PC's and there are times when working on my cellphone is not the best option, I think they should expand it to PC's too.

I would recommend Acorn for three simple reasons:

1-Easy to use, to set up and to acquire. Not expensive at all and give you the best results.

2-Doesn't have to be a professional to use it and lear how to.

3-It is simple but not basic, which is great since offers professional tools that turns out in professional, elaborated and creative designs.

Acorn is so simple to use, that it has really helped in my designs, since it complements my other more complicated design softwares, giving me innovative and creative results in a fast way. With Acorn, I can even give my clients the option to create the basis of what they want in their social networks or web page, and since it is so simple they can do it without much hassle, helping me to work more safely in the extensive design of the image. Also, when there are sudden publications to be made, with this software I do not worry at all about it, it is quite easy to create them and upload it to social media. It has brought me many benefis as a freelancer designer, it has facilitated my work and expanded my ability to work with any kind of editor.

I like how simple Acorn is, it really is not complicated to use but it is not basic either, it has the exact and precise tools to create professional editions that are very useful to me. The circle text tool and the text on a path tool are amazing and very useful, make it a lot easier to get your text exactly how you want it to look. The file suppot gives me a lot of confidence since I know my editions are safe, and the streamless editing tools are great as well. It is very cheap for all it offers, i love the ease it offers for creating editions, it is quick to open the software, customize the image, save it and use it!!

The free software doesn not include the best tools, and I think that if someone is testing for the first time the software, they can get desmotivated since the software does not show what it actually offers.

I would recommend Acorn because with this you can develop your brand or company image in a easy, quick and cheap way, you don't need to have professional designers to create your own images, you can adap everything you put on the software and be original and unique.

Acorn benefited me and my company image in a great way, other image editors were very complicated and expensive, and I really needed an image editor to create advertising images in a fast and uncomplicated way, for which I need a software that would contribute to the image of the company in a simple way and that other members of the supermarket could use in the same way. So when Acorn entered my designs life, I solved all those problems, I forgot about difficults and complicated softwares like Photoshop and whe I had to edit an image for the social media of the brand or even to make publicity for printing, I do it with the program having a very good result, so I can save money and time. Acorn satisfied my design needs on the editing field!!!

the best thing I like about it is that it has many tools found in other similar editing software such as selection, resizing, cropping and brushes but it has more! In this one, you can actually add some texts but the outstanding part is that it has much more such as altering the color, you can change the texture even adjust the shadow. With acorn, you can process many photos at the same time but one thing I even love more is that you can crop or process many photos at the same time. I am not gonna mention how you can make your own HDR and more. It is just easier to use and convenient than many out there

One thing I don't like about it is that I couldn't use it on my window computer, I hate that restriction. Lacking photo organizer is also one bad thing I did't like

Just prepare to pay some $30 and be using Macc computer, couldn't work with my windows OS

I like that it's a "scalable" software, meaning that for someone like me who doesn't use it for high-level projects, I still feel like I can operate it. Sometimes the "bigger" programs out there feel out of my league, but Acorn lets me get the simple stuff done with zero problems and a lot less confusion.

Because it is a little more basic, there are some instances when I want the software to be able to do something, and I feel like I can't figure out how to do it - at least not easily.

It is inexpensive but can handle a lot of grunt work, especially for small businesses. That's primarily where we use it.

We post a lot of content online, so we're always making images for that content. This often means overlaying text on an image, resizing images, or even designing images from the ground up by combining icons and other items into one cohesive set. Acorn is quick and easy to use for this purpose, meaning I don't spend extra racking my brain to figure out how to get everything in one place. Speed and ease of use are of the essence for what I do.

Acorns lets you invest your money in small amounts periodically.

Acorn charges more fee ($1/month) for smaller investments below $5000.

Will definitely recommend to family and friends

Acorn lets you invest spare change from your credit card transactions.

Of Acorn I love the ease it offers for editing, it is quick to open the application, customize the image, save it and use it. You do not need to have more knowledge and the images look really professional. It's totally cheap for everything it offers, much more than other complicated software. As I only work with Mac devices, it's great that this works perfectly on them.

The Free version doesn't have the most special tools, and I think they should show the customers with free trial what the software offers so they would feel animated to purhase the whole software. And the interface can be more modern, it looks old and the program is really good.

I would recommed Acorn to all those people that are not interested very much on being an expert on image edition, but they for some reason need to look like one, this software really offers proffesional and good options to work with. It's easy, it's quick, it's affordable and it's good.

Acorn helped me in a great way, other image editors were very complicated and expensive, I really had to focus my design area in other ways and I didn't need to be an expert in image editing, but at the same time I had to find a software that will help me look professional without much mess. So when Acorn entered my life, I solved all those problems, I forgot hard software like Photoshop and when I have to edit an image for a brand or a client, I do it with the program having a very good result, so I can save money and work. Acorn satisfied my design needs on the image editing field.

It's easy to use, affordable, has a great feature set, and has excellent support.

Nothing. I love this app. I recommended it to someone today, in fact.

Buy it. It's great.

I use it mostly for simple resizing, image optimization, cropping, and light editing.

It's the most straightforward way of creating and producing great projects containing images.

The tools available in this image editing application are so quick and easy to implement. It also has a fantastic processing path tool.

There are also features for adding text style, size and color. You can customize it according to your needs and interest.

It is an affordable tool with all the benefits and features compared to Photoshop's expertise.

It is best for working on medium and high-level projects; fewer expert users can use it easily with just a few training hours.

Acorn software provides you with a good and innovative result, which will be unique too.

It would be a blessing for graphics designers to implement tools for producing high-level work.

The UI is fully customizable and well-arranged and can be changed according to the user's interest.

There is no option for directly paying for the software via cards. The software purchasing feature is quite out dated and time-consuming.

This software has been a blessing for me in my organization as it allows me to edit images in large quantities so quickly and produce higher results in less time. This is time-saving software. Completes tasks so quickly and significantly.
