Logoist overview

With Logoist you can create impressive images and vector graphics - from simple layouts to sophisticated designs. Logoist offers everything you’ll need to make your creative ideas come to life or to spark new inspiration. Developed for both professional designers and graphic artists as well as beginners, Logoist provides not only a plethora of templates - ensuring an easy start for users without any prior experience with vector applications - but also offers powerful tools for professional users not found in other software.

The app’s large variety of comprehensive shape, style, preset, clip art and effects galleries are easy to appreciate. With a clean interface and powerful tools, including pre-made design elements that can be combined as desired, Logoist offers incredible ease of use - even including versatile path editors useable to create any shape you want.

Logoist is equipped with functionalities not available even in high priced suites. The Vectorizer converts any graphic element into a resolution-independent vector format for further editing, while preserving paths and even gradients. Logoist utilizes Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, allowing users not only to remove JPEG artifacts, image noise, and other image errors, but to also transform even the smallest and most pixelated graphics into high quality images.

Need to view a graphic or logo draft in multiple variations? Then use Artboards to create multiple workspaces within one document. Not sure whether to go for the blue or the red version of a graphic? Logoist helps to compare them side by side. You can also align graphics for different purposes - create reduced versions for use in a letterhead, larger ones for posters, and detailed graphics for magazine covers.

Need to create a quick draft? Simply use one of the template wizards which place you just a few steps away from finished cards, business cards, collages, and logos, which can then be further refined and edited. The "1-2-3 Logo" feature is another convenient tool, as it allows you to create completely different logo ideas for further editing or direct export with a single click.

Logoist in a Nutshell:
  • Clean user interface (including Dark Mode)
  • Dozens of combinable styles, effects and filters
  • Thousands of clip art and hundreds of fully customizable style templates
  • Non-destructive boolean operations while preserving all vector information
  • Suitable for pixel graphics, web, and resolution-independent print products
  • X-ray mode for editing complex object and layer structures
  • Pixel mode to create pixel-accurate designs
  • Flexible group management and innovative layer management features
  • All filters and effects are non-destructive and can be modified anytime
  • Vectorizer: Converts any graphic element into a resolution-independent vector format
  • Vector export file formats: PDF, SVG, EPS, PNG, JPG, HEIF, layered Photoshop PSDs, layers as separate PNG files
  • Batch export: Export multiple formats and resolutions simultaneously

i like this app. used it for some design and did not have any problems with sending my designs to the print. There was some minor glitches here and there periodically but i worked without any major problems and finished my work successfully. There is only one major minus (for me) - you can not export your work in vector format. .svg export is not supported. if you save in .psd - layers becomes rasterized after saving. i saved all my works in .pdf and it was useful for sending to the print but i need .svg export too for modern web graphics and to be able to continue my work in other software (like Affinity Designer or Adobe Illustrator). So, this is very nice and fast app (and i see no lags on my MacBook Pro Retina Late 2013 connected to the Non-Retina Apple Cinema display) but lack of .SVG export leads to 4 stars rating only.

Well, I love this program and bought the MAS version. (As they note, it's currently offered at an upgrade price.) This never version seems a lot faster, and I think they made a number of useful improvements to the UI. That alone was worth it to me. As for features, I've compared it to comparable programs and feel that it has a lot more to offer. For the most part, any graphics work I do are "amateur," so I don't use Photoshop and such. I've found, nonetheless, that I've been able to create quite a few really great images with the effects features in Logoist. If they are offering a demo (I think they are), take it for a spin. It's really quite a nice program.

Unfortunately, Logoist 2 is strictly MAS and there is no upgrade path for exiting users of Logoist. There is a demo version, but I would have really appreciated a choice between MAS and the standard method of app purchase.

Looks like an excellent app, and the demo version confirms that, but I can find no way to group objects in order to apply effects to various, no way to merge layers and no way to ask questions to the developer. On the support site, this program isn't in the popup list for questions for some odd reason. Overall, the interface is very good, though it needs better support for some type, like Tibetan, and also a way to UNDO your last change in the "gear" menu that pops up the options. Definitely it's an app with lots of potential, but I see no manual or way to get support for it.

I eventually downloaded it but I wish the developer would include an easier way to update this app. While on their product database page the word "Logoist" doesn't even appear on the drop down menu. Ditto similar results when it's used as a search term on said site.

This is odd: on MacUpdate Logoist costs $19.99. Apparentely the developer AvisNocturna Software is taken over by Synium which made Synium double the price to $39.99. From a mail from Synium: "Synium Software is very proud to announce a new product: Logoist!" To celebrate this new product, it is available for the 'introduction price' of $19.99 until the end of the year after which the price is $39.99. Yeah, there is a difference: on MacUpdate Logoist's version is 1.1.1, Synium offers version 1.1.2. Wonder if this minor update justifies the price hike?

One of the main reasons for buying this app was the hope of an efficient, quick collage feature, just as it reads on the website (albeit at the bottom). Unfortunately, neither the app nor the website explain how this can be done. I would have searched the blog there, but there isn't a search feature or window to do that with. Dev, if you're out there, would you please point me in a direction where I might learn more about creating collages?

This is an absolutely amazing app. I love it. The developer seems committed to it, and has been very responsive to me with a pre-sale question. So easy to use, and at a fantastic price. I never really do write reviews like this, but felt compelled to do so about Logoist. Well done, dev! This is so many different things in one, including fantastic background pattern generator. Dev -- keep it up, I suggest adding more presets, and even possibly letting users save theirs and post them for free download at your site -- that'd be great and really enhance the appeal. (4.5 stars is my highest rating, since nothing's perfect -- but 5 stars for value, and for stability as I've had no crashes or glitches so far after a couple of month's light usage).
