"Good app and really easy but it miss some options"

What do you like best about Acorn? We bought it because it was a cheap Image editor app and it's really easy to use. Before we had the 2 weeks free try and it made a big difference so we bought it. Everyone in the office knows how to use it and we are not even Designers. Also we are a PRO-MAC company, so having an app done for a MAC makes a big difference. What do you dislike about Acorn? Not enough options to edit your pictures when you come from an app like PHOTOSHOP but to be able to use ...

"Very competent and bug free photo editor"

What do you like best about Acorn? It's almost as fully featured as full commercial applications but at a fraction of the cost. What do you dislike about Acorn? It doesn't have the level of community that I can talk to as Photoshop. That said, that's a very minor problem Recommendations to others considering Acorn: The product is very fully featured, it's easy to use, and it does the job a lot better than freeware. What problems is Acorn solving and how is that benefiting you? I need to ...

"I used Acorn to do photo editing for my manuscript "

What do you like best about Acorn? I like Acorn in a way that it is easier to use and Mac friendly. The price is pretty good. I was using Photoshop before, and Photoshop costed me $180 for my PC. When I changed to Mac, I have to buy a new version of Photoshop since it was not compatible (i was not happy about it). So i decided to try Acorn. It is very similar to Photoshop and it is cheaper. Therefore, the price is a big plus. What do you dislike about Acorn? The trial free version did not ...

"A Basic Image Editor that can be a Great Tool for Hobbyists "

What do you like best about Acorn? I originally purchased acorn as part of an app bundle way back in 2009. I have used it multiple times and it seems to fit the need of a comprehensive photo editing app, without the huge price tag. In fact, Acorn is even more affordable than the majority of the other lower cost photo editors. What do you dislike about Acorn? The interface of acorn provides powerful, customizable tools, however today the interface feels a little dated and uninspired to me. ...
