Unleash Your Creativity with Ideate
By 
The iPad helps promote lots of ideas across different market segments. One that comes to mind is sketching. Think of it, a sketching app can help people collaborate and bring new ideas to life. Sketching is often an overlooked component in the creative process, especially where any sort of design is concerned. This is exactly what EffectiveUI set out to resolve with their iPad app called Ideate. This is one of the first apps created specifically for your iPad.
The app reproduces sketching in a way that is simple, intuitive and engaging to give as good an experience as possible without a physical pen and paper. The app comes with a large number of starting background objects, called Templates. It also provides a large number of UI-related backgrounds, including a variety of grids and monitor resolutions.
This app can be used in industries other than UI design. Industries such as fashion design, anatomy, music composition and landscaping. Physicians could use different templates to illustrate diagnoses to patients. Fashion designers could sketch next season’s hottest fashions to life. The goal of each template is to ignite your creativity.
To facilitate your work, photos and other images can be uploaded from your photo album, the Web and used as templates or additions to sketches. Sketches can be shared with others via e-mail or by uploading to Flickr.
The application is available on the App Store for $3.99. If you like to spark your creativity, or need a way to show it and communicate it to others, this app can do the trick for you.
