Could be great!
Brushes feel really nice and smooth, works well with the Apple Pen.
BUT… the tools feel really limited. There is no blend/ blur, or hard marker or pen. The pallets is a nice touch, creative and special, it can force you to be creative to challenge and limit yourself to using just 5-8 color range. But if you want to get a specific shade or color it’s still a process to get to the exact shade you want: You have to open up a menu item to change the palette or use the rainbow one. Then you have to spin the wheel for color and swipe up or down for shade. It would be great to have the option to use the universal simple color dialog to choose from, and to make your own color palette and save then.
All in all, the Artwork is amazing, large selection, even the free version where they do limit artists and popular items, but you still you find something you’ll like. You select your preferences upon opening but I can’t find a way to change those preferences. I chose too many because I wanted everything but I realized it’s just for the home page, there’s a whole tab to browse all artworks.. whoops.Show lessReally love the app, there could be some improvements
I love using lake. I’m not an artist but I love being able to relieve stress while colouring and I’ve felt very proud of some of the pieces I’ve finished. I use the app on my iPad but also have it on my phone and have found that they don’t sync well even though they upload to my iCloud. Also there doesn’t seem to be a place for me to turn off the starting sound. I think there was a way to turn sounds off with the older versions of the app…maybe I’m making this up but I have to turn my volume all the way down before starting the app if I’m in a very quiet place like a library. Last one - I wish there were more options for mood for the daily journal. I’ve often felt “tired” or “neutral” or “cheeky” yet these haven’t been present as options and I’ve felt disappointed by the Color palette. Please, please, please add more options for mood beyond the 12 that are there. Other than that, I love the app and highly recommend!Show lessDeveloper Response

I really love this app and has helped me so much through the hardest time of my life. I absolutely adore the entry, to draw, because I have had horrible days and drawing it out really helps. I love the different genres of drawing and how unique each drawing is. Love the watercolor tool and the color wheel. I don’t have the subscription, but is still a great app, and is easy to use once you get the hang of it (like one drawing and you know where everything is). I love the feature that you can listen to music while coloring because I am very sentimental when it comes to music and drawing so putting them together really seals the package. One thing that might be just my device, but I went into the app on day and all my drawings were gone. They were there but weren’t colored. It was bummer, and I had spent hours on some drawings. I didn't it dwell on it, because I though of it as an opportunity to draw them again with different colors, or styles but it was still devastating. If there is a way for me to get my drawings back please respond creators. Still get this great app though! Thanks for the amazing work the creators have done, and if there is anything that I can do to get the drawing back, can you please let me know!Show less
