What our customers say

    • I used PopChar 15+ years ago on the Mac, but they now also have a Windows version, and it is just so much more powerful and useful than CharMap.

    • PopChar is so much easier to use than Apple's character viewer. It is a 'Mac Essential', the full-featured, well polished, champion of its class.
