About this app

Trace any drawing on real paper using your phone camera. No light box. No projector. Just your phone, a pencil, and DrawLens.

Whether you are picking up a pencil for the first time or speeding up your tracing workflow, DrawLens turns your phone camera into a transparent drawing guide — so you can learn to draw, sketch portraits, copy reference photos, and finish drawings you used to give up on.

🎨 HOW IT WORKS

1. Open DrawLens and pick a template — or upload your own photo
2. Point your phone camera at your paper
3. Trace what you see. The AR overlay aligns the reference to your paper in real time
4. Done. Save a photo or video of the finished drawing

No projector. No tracing paper. No expensive light box. Just your phone and a pencil.

📚 2,000+ DRAWING TEMPLATES, 38 CATEGORIES

Find a drawing for every skill level and interest:
- Animals: dogs, cats, dinosaurs, birds
- Portraits and faces — perfect for learning proportion
- Manga and anime drawing
- Landscapes, nature, flowers
- Cars, motorcycles, architecture
- Lettering and calligraphy
- Holidays, cartoons, kids drawing
- New templates added every month

✏️ DRAWING TOOLS DESIGNED FOR REAL ARTISTS

- Opacity control — make the overlay faint enough to trace, vivid enough to follow
- Flip horizontal/vertical — mirror any reference instantly
- Zoom and pan — focus on fine details
- Grid overlay — improve proportion and alignment
- Undo/redo — step back without restarting
- Lock mode — freeze the reference so it never shifts mid-stroke
- Timer — track your drawing sessions
- Dark mode — comfortable use in low light

📷 CAPTURE YOUR DRAWING

Photograph or record your drawing session without leaving the app. Built-in pause lets you stop and restart capture at any point — perfect for time-lapse drawing videos.

🖼️ TWO DRAWING MODES

- AR Camera Mode: overlay a reference image onto your physical paper using the live camera
- On-Screen Mode: draw over a reference on your device screen — no paper needed

📁 USE ANY PHOTO

Upload photos from your gallery, use your own sketches, or pull from the built-in template library. DrawLens is a complete drawing app — works with whatever you bring to it.
