Ratings and reviews

I really truly like the simplicity and brush selection of this app as someone who wanted something realistic ish to get into digital drawing from traditional, but I'm not sure if it's because my tablet is about 6 or 7 years old, or if they stopped updating the app for older devices, or both, but the saved project files are off calibration with my pen when I open them, and adding just one layer will allow the app down even more and I get the too many layers warning. I wish this app was better.

EDIT: Dec 28, 2025 This drawing app used to be good, not great, it was never great because it would glitch out a couple of times back then. But now it glitches worse than ever, I used to be able to save my drawings to the gallery and now it doesn't work or confirm that it's been saved, nothing shows up in the gallery at all. Not only that, but it erases my drawings, literally wipes the canvas slate clean. And the sync feature is horrible, it doesn't sync anything, doesn't sync to another device.

This app used to be great, but it has a new bug that severely diminishes the value of the app. It will compeletly erase your drawings when you enter them. I've also had it erase a drawing without me needing to enter it. It also forces all layers to visible if you leave the app and come back to your drawing. I'm really sad because this is my main digital art app, my only one, but now I have to go looking for another.
