This is probably the best sketch app that I have come across. It's very easy to use, there are many style choices to choose - from different styles of pencil sketches to crayons to colored pencils to watercolors to cartoon, etc. Each style has a slider bar that allows you to fine-tune the amount of the style you apply. The app also includes Filter and Editor functions. I like this app so much that I paid for the version without ads, which was reasonably priced. I would definitely recommend this.

There are lots of different options to change your pictures into drawings or color art! There are ads and if you want to save your picture in HD you need to pay with credits, but the free option looks just fine to me. For a free app, I can't complain. I just gave 4 stars because of the ads and charges (only if you choose to pay, NOT required!) I'd definitely recommend this.

I tried a picture of a pet and human to see the different effects. I wanted a coloring book effect. I like the fact that the App is easy to use and select the different filters that's close to the sketch effects that you like. The sketches look great and seems to capture the images well. You can see what the sketch looks like before you actually save it. What's also great is that credits are not involved, no pressured sign ups, and no penalizing for trying different images.
