About this app

Turn images into drawing guides and learn to draw with your camera. Draw and Sketch: Trace Images helps you trace pictures onto paper, practice sketching, follow drawing tutorials, and create your own artwork.

Whether you're a beginner learning how to draw or an artist practicing new subjects, use image tracing and guided templates to work on outlines, proportions, shapes, details, and shading.

🎨 TRACE IMAGES WITH YOUR CAMERA

Choose a drawing template or use an image from your gallery. Place your phone above your paper and use the camera view as a visual tracing guide. Adjust the image to fit your drawing surface and trace the lines at your own pace.

You can resize, rotate, move, and adjust the opacity of the tracing image to make your reference easier to follow.

✏️ LEARN TO DRAW STEP BY STEP

Practice drawing through guided stages instead of trying to complete everything at once. Follow each stage to build the outline, add shapes and details, work on poses, and finish your sketch.

Step-by-step drawing guides make it easier to practice consistently and understand how an image is built.

🖼️ DRAW ANIME, MANGA, CHIBI & ANIMALS

Explore drawing templates across different subjects and styles, including:

• Anime characters
• Manga-inspired drawings
• Chibi designs
• Animals
• Poses and figures
• Other sketching templates

Choose a subject, place your paper underneath your phone, and start tracing.

📷 DRAW FROM YOUR OWN IMAGES

Bring your own ideas into your drawings by selecting images from your device. Use a personal photo, reference image, or another picture as a visual guide for sketching and tracing.

🎨 SKETCH, COLOR & FINISH YOUR ART

After tracing your reference, continue working on your artwork with drawing and coloring tools. Add lines, colors, shading, and details to turn your sketch into a finished drawing.

💾 SAVE YOUR ARTWORK

Keep your finished drawings in your personal gallery so you can look back at your artwork and continue building your collection.

🎥 RECORD YOUR DRAWING PROCESS

Record your drawing session while you sketch, trace, or create art. Capture the process as you draw anime, animals, sketches, text art, or other artwork. Save the drawing process from start to finish.

📸 TAKE PICTURES WHILE DRAWING

Take pictures of your artwork or drawing setup at different stages of your drawing process.

🔦 USE FLASH FOR DARK DRAWING CONDITIONS

Use your device's camera flash to illuminate your paper and reference when drawing in darker conditions.

🔒 LOCK YOUR REFERENCE IMAGE

Lock your reference image in place and keep it fixed to one pose while you draw.

📝 CREATE TEXT ART

Create text art from your own words. Enter custom text and choose from available fonts to create a design for drawing, lettering, and creative artwork.

🖼️ TRACE WITH A WHITE SCREEN

Use the dedicated image tracing mode to display an image or artwork on a white screen. Place your paper over the phone and trace the reference directly onto the paper. This tracing mode is separate from camera drawing and works for outlines, shapes, lettering, and other artwork.
