Noteworthy new app releases and updates, handpicked by the MacStories team.
Deckset, an app for creating presentations from Markdown files, has been around for a long time. This week, after a decade as a Mac-only app, Deckset debuted on the iPhone and iPad. The benefit of a text-based presentation app is it allows you to build a slide deck from an outline, which, for many people, is a more natural way to organize their thoughts.
The iPhone and iPad versions include 22 themes, image filters, animated transitions, and support for formulas and tables. Presentations can be exported as images or PDFs, and although it’s not a replacement for a full-featured presentation app, Deckset has the benefit of being fast and easy to use for creating simple presentations.
