Pros and cons of Gfx Hotkeys app for iPhone and iPad

Gfx Hotkeys app good for

i have a 3d studio, and as a professionnal i can only advise you to take it !!
Very handy and easy to use, but to be perfect it should include older versions of the software since not everyone is able to get/run the latest version of everything. Despite of that, highly recomended! I dont know if it is possible but it would be great if it could turn into a remote control for the shortcuts too.
really great tool for all gfx artists, i only hope the latest version would be available for ipad - ios 5.
I´m a big fan of Gfx Hotkeys App. Thanks for that! I think it is time to update the app. May I wish to get the Baselight Hotkeys in your App.
This app is a bit expensive but it contains a huge library of shortcuts...pictograms of the tools or tabs would be appreciated to increase the speed of shortcuts localization when looking through the list. Hope this will be added in a future update but great app anyway I recommend it. Also adding Premiere Pro shortcuts would be great so please consider it:)
I never give 5 * but best app out there It just lacking a way to add ur own short keys to it or if u know a diff way to sent to them to add to next up date

Some bad moments

I like it but I would love it if they had it more customizable and be able to download the hot keys for other programs to
simple yet great app. I contacted the developer to add a few programs...pf track & syntheyes specifically and they were added in the next release. I would love to see Vue added to this list, as well as mocha.
Great app all shortcuts is organise and not run to look in books or online very usefull
Highly recommended for anyone in the 3D, graphics, or film/video industry. Would be even better if an extra layer was added once you select an application. For example: you click on 3DS Max, then click on a category (modeling/ uvMapping/ materials/ trackView etc..), then a list of specific shortcuts appear- would be much more time efficient.
Really comes in handy! Great work. I do however wish there was an option to only see the Mac or PC key commands individually instead of always having to see them both at the same time. Either that or at least be able to change the order in which they appear. Being a mac guy its slightly annoying to always have to see the windows command first, and then the Mac version next to it. Its even more noticeable when the command is so long that it gets cut off on the screen, and I have to now click to see the full text. Other than that I hope they continue to update and add other programs to the app on a regular basis.
Great app. I only wish you could set a preference for Mac or Windows. Another reviewer already mentioned this, maybe the developer will update for this option. That is the only reason I didnt give it 5 stars.
