This concept is novel because it replaces the need to "design" the app in a separate piece of software (and learn yet another UI). Although I like Balsamiq sometimes sketching is quicker, and more convenient. I think ideally having both options would be good as sometimes the urge to sketch an idea arises, but normally I would use the software. Also Idea: They should sell app mockup paper/pads as a side business.

Agree on the idea. Pads and colored pencils that allow for more intricate interactions when recognized by the app.

Ah, paid plans for the mobile version, too. I wonder why that isn't linked on the home page.

Hi this is Wraecca from the POP team, we're sorry that we're not ready for the premium feature, but it will be released soon. Thank you!

The plans on these pages are different, btw. The first one indicates a 'private' option, but that all looks cleaned up in the parent link.

"Why is it free?" Would that be a bad thing? Why everything has to be paid for?

Potentially, yes. You want products you like to have a business model so that they are kept alive.
