Thanks both for your replies. I realise that it is an add-on product, but the problem is that the way it is displayed as being included in MS365 E3 is completely misleading.
In Australia, and no doubt other countries, consumer protection law makes misleading advertising illegal. This is clearly misleading advertising.
I've also rasied this with MS Support in a related ticket, but no one there seems to care.

Feb 22, 2024The page and flyout promise a service called Visio which allows you to create and view flowcharts. And this is what you get when you subscribe to E3. It does not promise that you get a local, Win32, standalone app. And no local app is needed to perform the tasks called out on the flyout. Not a lawyer, but I don't see this as 'clearly misleading'.
