Leave a Review Linea Sketch
Amazing with some flaws
I love Linea sketch it’s the only app that really works for me when I draw on my iPad and it’s great that they update and add more features but sometimes it glitches like one time I bought a feature and it was great I loved it but then after I used it for a while I had to buy it again (thankfully it was fixed once I updated the app)Show lesslipartLOVER
Didn’t download for me sadly :(
I was looking at the views and i decided to download it because it seemed cool, i clicked the download button, did my touch id thing, and exited the app store to see it, but when i checked up on it affter a few minutes it wasnt loaded at all, not a single speck of that sign of downloading on it, i deleted it and tried again, same thing, it might be me, but i would have loved to draw on this app.Show lessKara M.Q
Color palette
It’s a really great app but I downloaded it and once I got on I couldn’t find the color palettes. It kept telling me to click the color palette icon but there was no icon. Otherwise it has really good tools and is a great app.art.person
Still my go to drawing app
Update:
This is and will always be my favorite drawing app. I do almost all of my client work in here because it just works the way I expect it to. I forget that I am using an app because it just feels so much like a real sketchbook. over half of my client work is completed using this app because the output matches my style so well. not to mention the addition of layer masking has eliminated the few pain points that I still had with the app. if you’re not using this as an artist my only question is why not??
original review:
I am an artist and illustrator and I find that no matter how many different drawing apps I try I always come back to this one. The pencil and blender brush are great and the fact that they finally added text and a watercolor brush make it indispensable for me as an artist. I know subscription fatigue is real but if I really like the app supporting it’s development is ok by me. And it’s is only 99 cents a month … most people spend more on a cup of coffee daily. I know this is an overly glowing review but it truly is one of my favorites.Show lesslynk;)
Cloud storage
I absolutely love Linea sketch and have been using the free edition for a few years. I reached some limit and was forced to subscribe if I wanted to keep using it. Not expensive so I bought it. However, it forced me to save everything I had to the cloud which blew up my allotted cloud storage forcing me to spend even more money than the purchase of Linea. I could not find setting to turn off cloud unless I wanted to lose everything previously saved.Show lessDarlene price
Long Time Linea Sketch User
Just wanted to take time to compliment the Icon Factory dev team for doing a great job with the new 4.1 enhancements. The masking feature is extremely helpful as well as the “clear Ink” for subtle erasing / shading.
I appreciate how you’ve integrated in these enhancements without cluttering up the UI. It’s still clean, simple, and easy to use. I enjoy using Linea because it’s the closest thing I’ve found to emulate an analog sketching experience. The limits you have are a good thing in my opinion (like only 5 layers). This forces you to focus on actually sketching and not fiddling with dozens on layers, layers settings, drop-down menus, and 100s of brushes and other distractions. It’s more like breaking out a paper sketchbook with a pencil.
There are other apps like Procreate I love too, but all my initial drawings start out in Linea. If I need the advanced filters and layer modes I can quickly export to other apps.
I’ve seen some folks leave negative reviews about the limited tools in Linea. But to me it’s a nice balance. You provide all the essentials and nothing more. And everything works perfectly even on my older iPad. I just like the simplicity of this app and appreciate the attention to detail you’ve given it.
And I almost forgot to mention collections. That’s another great addition since I have so many drawings. Will help me organize things much better.
Thanks for an awesome upgrade!Show lessiPhoneography App
Developer Response
"Sometimes less is more." is the exact philosophy behind Linea, so thanks for recognizing that. We'll continue to work hard improving the app while striving to keep it as dead easy and simple to use as possible. We appreciate you taking the time to leave your review and from the whole team, thanks for using Linea Sketch!Linea is the Underdog of Art Apps
This update catapulted this app to a whole new level. I’m an illustrator and as many with the same profession we use powerful apps to achieve our projects. Linea has been the brainstorming, conceptual art, note taking and pre-sketching needs app we can’t live without. I realized I use it too much when I found struggling organizing and searching for artworks inside the app. Suddenly I was screaming to have pro features in my brainstorming app and now I can say that Linea is no longer a companion app. Linea app is a pro illustration tool as good and useful as Procreate is for hard core sketching needs. Congratulations!Show lessA.Kinng
Best lightweight, intuitive drawing app
I have tried them all: Procreate, Sketchbook,
Illustrator, ArtRage, Zen Brushes and several others. Linea Sketch gets my vote for the best lightweight and intuitive drawing app. If you are a serious artist Procreate is probably worth the time and effort to master, however if you want a drawing app that is easy to use and includes several more advanced features, Linea is a great choice!Show lessCRJSCI
Previously paid for this but now it needs a subscription
I previously bought this app when I bought an iPad mini and pencil.
I ended up selling my iPad but recently picked up an iPad Pro.
After installing Linea Sketch, that I had previously paid for, I see it now has limited features unless you fork out a subscription or pay a one-off purchase that is about 7x what I previously paid.Show lessKyver1
It’s better than motionbook
Linea sketch is a great game even tho I hate hate HATE drawing with my hand (p.s it’s so fricken hard to draw the masterpiece in your mind) so I’m getting an apple pen for Christmas but linea sketch is a great game because so far I’ve drawn huggy wuggy from poppy playtime (it turned out ok but I could do better) and some other random pieces of art I am proud to own this game and it’s better than drawing in the notes app on my iPad I love this game ❤️ -sincerely- Two phases are better than oneShow lessdogeygrl123
