I hadn't heard of Workflow so looked on iTunes for the iPhone app.
There seem to be so many ridiculously positive reviews that I smelled a rat (read a few and you'll see what I mean).
So I looked at the "most critical" reviews, and found some very interesting comments.
People are upset with:
- privacy - app won't work unless you allow access top camera/other. why?
- not all features available unless you pay for them in-app.
- very limited functionality
- most workflows are gimmicky and not really useful for power users.
So, my question: are there any power Automator users out there who have used workflow and think it's really good and useful? (And no, not just for adding a button to my home screen to call my wife - whoop-de-doo!)

Personally, I think they should offer a demo version with an in-app purchase. Id wager that many potential customers are simply reluctant until theyve actually tried it. 3 is a relatively steep price.
Every time I come across this app, I think about grabbing it but none of the examples given seem useful or relevant to me. I'm either not looking at enough examples, or perhaps I am a boring person. People seem to swear by this app and think it would make a good Apple purchase.
Yeah, I just don't see the appeal. It seems too complicated for simple tasks that you can do without the app. Maybe I just don't understand.
I'm interested, but how does this differ from IFTTT?
Not an attck of you - this is one of my huge bugbears. When people with an $600-$1000 Phone and potentially a $1000 iPad and potentially a $1000 Laptop wont buy apps for $3 or consider that price expensive. I pay that for a coke.
What this has driven is the rise of in-app purchases and free aps that are awful.
Back on topic _ i have heard about this app a few times and it is the sort of thing I would like but I can't get into it yet. Maybe the Watch version will make it more relevant. I like the idea of a quick tap to send a standard message. More to exlpore on this I think.

I have a friend who buys the new iPhone every year, eats out for lunch every day, will go to a bar 1-2x per week [these examples are all normal things to do for many people, but my point is only that he's not exactly penny pinching], but don't ask him to pay $0.99 for an app though - if it's not free, he doesn't download it. The only exception is when he receives an iTunes gift card or I gift him an app because I can't stand it, lol. Yes, people like him are to blame for your last sentence.
