Ink Space is a small experimental drawing tool which uses the accelerometer on your android device to move the drawings you make in 3d. It's part of the android experiments initiative.
The project itself it fairly straight forward you can draw, move the phone by tilting in different directions, adjust line that you are drawing, create an animated line which pulses and re-draws itself and record an animated gif of whatever you make. Double-tapping (or hitting the trash icon in the menu) clears the app.
As an artist I'm experimenting with new types of drawing tools, and what does drawing in the 21st century look like ? -- ink space is research in that realm. If have a drawing basically in your hands, what does it look like to move around that drawing and experience more as a dimensional form that requires you to both draw and move.

Keep up the good work! As a fellow artist I thoroughly enjoyed your app. This has sooooo much potential though so please keep working on it. I wouldn't mind paying if you release a paid version with more features. It seriously is one of a kind but needs more. For example a freeze option to freeze a position when tilting the phone so we can draw precisely where we want. Cheers!
Absolutely fabulous, awesome..... I Frds ,creativity comes from the minds of genius...this app is application of those programmed it. I cannot even express how wonder full. We can make magics from this. We can even make motion pictures of any other drawing. I wanna see the team of this application. Frds if u were a engineer or any person who try to explore new things it suit us. Finally this application is the up most of all .I thing the programmers have no idea what they made.... How engineers use it for. I will give 5 star and more as well

I really enjoying playing with this app and seeing what new ideas I can come up with to sketch. My 7 year old son also thought it was pretty cool, especially the fact that you can record it as a gif! I've gotten some of my Google+ artist friends to use it as well, with some crazy cool results. I do have two requests, though (these are also from other users I've chatted with): 1. Undo would be awesome 2. Invert the colors/different colors. Great experiment! I look forward to seeing more.

Missed! I was so excited, until I opened the app. After the App is opened, you find something likened to a empty box! Pretty on the outside, but void of capability. I believe the designer could fill up this App-making it very exciting! To be used with photo galleries; having the recorder work, as well as be saved!

Lots of fun, even though I'm kind of rubbish at using it! Certainly captures the artistic improv style of drawing. Distinct lack of instructions leave me wondering if there's a way to draw in a deeper or shallower plane, but otherwise I've figured it out. Lots of fun. Some colours would be good too.

Very Cool Concept 4 stars for good execution, cool idea, and simplicity to use. Not a tool, as it's very limited in options, (you can adjust size, and delete the whole image), but it is a really fun toy. The most fun I've had yet is writing my signature and moving that around in 3D space. Oddly veeeery satisfying.

Amazing concept! What sorcery is this?! Only ONE Permission for this app? That is super awesome! This app is only missing an undo button & the icon might also need updating to attract attention. A little polishing here and there and this app might become very useful for a lot of stuff! Great work dev!
Great Concept Executed Poorly The main problem that I found so far is that while drawing a 3D drawing on a 2D screen, depth at which the line is drawn can't be determined until the angle is changed. If there is a fixed depth, there should be a zoom in/out function so that the user could at least estimate to account for it. But as with zoom, this "tool" lacks even the most basic of functions, such as undo or redo, and lacks alterable brush color but that's minor in comparison. Uninstalled until a modicum of functionality is presented.
Awesome Such great concept.. Never seen any app like this 😍 Keep up the good work. Please keep updating it. Also it would be helpful if you give full resolution saving of the gif file. Hope to get it in future update.
Love it love the concept! Unfortunately, not all phones have gyroscope, or whatever it is that is being used for the camera elements. I'd suggest u guys to start considering another option for the element. Otherwise, some ppl (like me) may find this app, unusable.
Very cool First of all... One of the coolest apps i think I've seen. Tricky to use, but there's a ton of potential. If there was a way to manually change your viewpoint, then lock it in place, this would be near perfect.
✌😊 Best out of the box thinking. Feels very 3 dimensional. I would like to also add that it's also feels like incomplete. For example undo or erase, calibration for positions, zoom in/out, 360° movement and in Last Colors.
Excellent app! Played with it for hours. You can make 3d shapes whilst drawing as you tilt the device - brilliant. One problem: once I'm in the app I cant get out. How do I leave the app?
IS THERE NO UNDO FOR A MESS UP!? This is one of the greatest apps I've ever seen, but you guys ruined it because if I make one mistake I have to restart! As a Graphic Designer that renders the app useless to me. I mean, Its an amazing idea. So im gonna keep the app, and ill rate you guys 5 stars when I see an undo and a redo option.
...omfg... YOUR APP IS AMAZING!!! Years ago I downloaded an app that rudimentarily utilized a phone's accelerometer to create true 3d creations. It fascinated me and without a doubt your app puts my memories of that other app to shame. Thank you, please keep developing and sharing your talent with others.
Fun but lacks precision So it gets boring pretty easily. Add alternate methods to rotate using controls on screen. Colors, and option to save the project! But the flowing light effect is very cool!
Like magic I've never used my phone in three dimensions like this before. It'd be even cooler if you could walk around and draw in different areas, although I guess drawings would be difficult to share in that case. The lightning tool brings this to a whole new level.
Pure beautiful joy Like a child playing with bubbles or finger painting, this app captures the pure joy of play. Rare to find this natural and interactive experience in an app. It's brilliant, simple, beautiful--thank you! Would love to see some color selection options.
So awesome!! Would suggest two things. 1) an undo button as opposed to a full out delete. 2) the ability to work in landscape mode as a start, as opposed to starting in portrait only.
Frustrating little problems but otherwise WOW !! Installed successfully on Samsung Galaxy Note 4 Edge. I predominately use the S-Pen just for detailed work but have noticed if I remove the pen from the screen to start another detail the image erases itself and I have to start again. Or I remove the pen from the screen and start to fill in open areas, like colouring in, again the image disappears. Would be great if you could utilize the Note 4's Edge. Look forward to future updates. Rock on bro !!!

you might be accidently triggering double tap (which also clears the screen) Useless and utterly majestic. Just what I need to have fun. Undo would be nice, but there was zen in trying to get something just right too..
Its an amazing idea but my drawings keep dissapearing at a random time which is really anoying. (experia z5 premium) Thanks for the app hopefully issue can be fixed :)
A Fantastic & Truly Innovative App I love this simple, totally innovative app. Kudos you the developer! Can't wait for future versions to incorporate different colors and and new drawing tools! Keep up the great work!
Using it on Asus Zenfone 2, Z00A. App crashes on launch plz solve it Update- No need to say sorry for this. Take your time. It is an awesome app.

I am looking into this right now... so sorry, this is happening on some devices I wasn't able to test on. Very cool A little buggy and inaccurate when it comes to warping the drawing based on phone position but that could just be my phone. Nexus 4 5.1.1
WTF? Its witchcraft... Seriously a really cool drawing app. Keep up the good work, and I'm curious to see what else you do with it.
Kid flashbacks!!! Your app made me feel like a kid again. So simple, yet so awesome. I can't stop giggling, for some reason.
Creative & Fun 5 stars for the idea & creation. Work well on my LG G4. If it can adjust the speed & more color would be more useful. It would be great, if it can draw on the a still picture to make a still picture more alive & fun with special message...etc
Crashes on Intel-based ASUS Zenphone 2 The only app I have that consistently force closes on this phone. I really want to try it...
Interesting fun good....but can be better Plz include an option to erase...its annoying to restart every time And include a button to save....to continue later
Really fun and creative app! I'd love to see a non-sensor dependent version that could be manipulated with possibly 2 fingers or scroll wheel for more precision. Maybe also the ability to control the speed/pulse of the animated drawing too. Just a few thoughts. Love, love the app though! Keep it up!
Possible updates If you added color palette, postional locking to edit certain angles, and possibly analog manipulation I could see this as the greatest protyping and artistic app on mobile devices! Please take these into consideration, I think a majority of consumers would defiantly pay for such usability.
Neat creative app. Could be used to create rough 3D models for people who aren't adept at drawing.. Add undo as option, that would be nice.
WTF!!! Unfortunately..this force close itself!!!terrible. Im so excited before. U ruin that!!
people who whine about open source software should be burned alive. MAKE YOU OWN GODDAMN UNDO BUTTON!
I ❤ inkSpace great stress relief and a simple yet fun easy to pass the time... 👉I'd really like the ability to change the color of the background or use one of my images. 😌 you're awesome
Fun app, but sharing doesn't work great idea, but I can't share anything neat. Too big for txt msg, nothing is animated for emails and snapchat.
Outstanding Whoever thought of this is great creative person XD I don't like drawing cause I srsly sux at it lol but I really enjoyed it worth trying nope this app is must try XD for all drawing lovers
It just blew my mind off!! Great work developer, would love to see your future experiments.
Truly impressive But no way to close it? I hope I'm being blind but seems somewhat of an oversight.
