PlayMaker Pro for iOS is available from Apple's App Store for free as a PlayMaker Pro document viewer for iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad. This product lets you display PlayMaker Pro documents and animate plays. Use it to take your drawings to practice or share them with coaches or players who have an iPad, iPhone or iPod touch. The app works with documents for American Football, Canadian Football and Basketball. Those documents could come from the Macintosh or Windows versions of PlayMaker Pro.
iPad users can purchase the ability to create and edit PlayMaker Pro documents for $49.99. You can try out the editing features for free, but you'll need to purchase editing from within the iPad app to save or print your work.
You can move documents from Macintosh or Windows computers to an iPad / iPhone / iPod Touch using the File Sharing feature of iTunes. You can email a document whose name ends in ".fbd" or ".bbd" for football or basketball. Apple's Mail app will hand off the ".fbd" or ".bbd" document to PlayMaker Pro. You can also work on documents that reside on iCloud or other cloud providers such as DropBox.
Drawing plays on an iPad works similarly to drawing plays with the Macintosh or Windows versions of PlayMaker Pro, you just draw with your finger instead of with a mouse. You may want to use a stylus so your finger will be smaller.
Compared to the desktop versions of PlayMaker Pro, the iPad version does not have the Library feature, does not export jpg and png files, and text objects have one font and size. Otherwise, its all there. You can draw players, lines, boxes and text in color or black & white, copy and paste, flip plays, reverse plays, enlarge / reduce plays, zoom in on your work, align, animate and present with player notes.
You can display your drawings on a Projector either using Screen Mirroring (requires iPad 2 or newer) or as a 2nd display. You can animate plays similar to the desktop versions of PlayMaker Pro. You can display player notes in a presentation.
You can print a page or a whole document from an iPad, iPhone or iPod Touch.
This is what PlayMaker Pro looks like running on an iPad. It lets you create, edit and view PlayMaker Pro documents. You can also view PlayMaker Pro documents that you have created with the Macintosh or Windows versions. Currently, it supports American Football, Canadian Football and Basketball.
PlayMaker Pro for iOS is a Universal iOS application. It works with iPads, iPhones and iPod Touch devices running iOS version 5.1 or newer. Your documents will look much better on an iPad than an iPhone because it is much larger. The iPad screen shot above was reduced to fit on this web page. The iPhone screen shot below is at actual size. PlayMaker Pro for iOS looks the best on Apple's Retina Displays (better than Mac or Windows versions). You can not edit plays on an iPhone or iPod Touch.
The example above can be scrolled up and down to reveal the entire contents of a page. You can also hold your iPad / iPhone / iPod Touch in the portrait orientation to see a full page.
PlayMaker Pro documents can have a Landscape Page Setup. This feature is often used to draw really large plays for cards for practice. A play card on an iPad would look like the example below. Don't take a pile of paper to practice - just take your iPad.
