AR Drawing: Trace & Sketch turns your phone into an AR drawing projector. Pick any photo, hold your phone over paper, and trace what you see on the screen — the image appears over your paper through the camera, so you can sketch anything with ease. No artistic experience needed: if you can trace, you can draw.
HOW AR TRACING WORKS
1. Choose a picture from your gallery, or pick a template
2. The app converts it into a clean black-line outline you can trace
3. Place your paper and hold or mount your phone above it
4. Follow the lines through the camera and trace to sketch your drawing
5. Save, record, and share your artwork
Works with or without a phone stand — freeze the camera frame or lock the overlay, and trace at your own pace with a crisp full-screen image.
TEMPLATES FOR EVERYTHING YOU WANT TO DRAW
Want to learn how to draw anime? Explore a template library grouped by topic: anime, people, animals, cars, flowers, food, nature, music, mandala designs, tattoo art, kids drawings, and beginner shapes. Practice anime drawing step by step, or import any reference picture and start tracing.
PHOTO TO SKETCH IN ONE TAP
Turn any picture into a drawing. The photo to sketch converter transforms your images into clean, traceable line art. Adjust opacity, zoom, rotation, and mirroring so the outline fits your style — perfect for portraits, pets, and gifts.
TRACE TEXT AND LETTERING
Type any name, word, or phrase and turn it into traceable text. Choose Block, Script, Outline, Handwriting, Serif, or Shadow styles — great for hand lettering practice, calligraphy, posters, cards, and signs.
