For TREE structure only?
Yes, OrgChart app is for tree structure of organization chart only
(OrgChart is help to create the organization chart super efficiently, by avoiding drawing. For non-tree structure of organization chart, the computer has no way to know how to draw them in correct position, before the AI technology be improved much, we have to draw the non-tree structure using the drawing apps)

How to input departments quickly?

Or try "batch input" to enter or paste multiple lines of text and create multiple departments at once. (A useful approach is to prepare text on a PC or Mac, send it to your iPad via email or another third-party app, then paste it into the batch input view.)

Enter department names line by line. Add spaces at the beginning of each line to adjust hierarchy, and separate unit properties with “/” in each line. For example, if you need to add sub-departments under department “A”, create the hierarchy below:

– Long-press unit “A” to display the function menu
– Tap “Batch add sub units”
– Enter text (or copy text prepared on another device, such as a PC, and paste it here) as follows
1/Job 1/People 1
1.1/Job 1.1/People 1.1
1.2/Job 1.2/People 1.2
2/Job 2/People 2
3/Job 3/People 3
(Please note that there is a leading space at the beginning of the second and third lines to define the outline level.)
The key is to reduce slow typing on iOS devices.
