Ratings and reviews

Could be a bit better by adding the symmetry ruler to Simple Mode (if it's there then I really cannot see) and maybe also have less time lapses? A really annoying bug is that if I was idle for too long in a project(though at this point it just does this because I'm using too many tools), it would make it so I couldn't edit my work anymore. I had to restart an animation THREE TIMES because of this. Aside from that, great app for drawing. Also, my phone is a Google Pixel 6a, if this happens again.

I was trying out a few different mobile phone painting programs, and once I got a handle on the odd interface, forgot I was supposed to be trying the other options I had downloaded. Great program, great brushes, and feels so good with a pen! I downloaded this to teach myself to paint after a lifetime of professional retouching, and this is the first time I've ever actually been able to commit to getting over the learning curve that comes with translating retouching skills to actual painting.

Okay, so I don't know if my app was glitching or something happened but, when I add a new layer, it's like a completey new canvas. I also find this app hard to navigate and confusing(kind of but not really). It has potential but I'm not sure if I can even get to see it.
