Leave a Review Inspire
Eh heh
I have far too many drawing apps on my phone so when I saw this one I couldn't help myself. The interface is simple and with the option to tap the corners to bring up the menu I no longer have the problem of accidentally bringing it up. The blending option is unique and really what makes the app worth it. I don't find it as smooth as Sketchbook Mobile app but again, the blending you can achieve with Inspire makes it worth it.
Great developer support too! Any suggestions or questions are addressed quickly and professionally :DShow lessCode Classified
Very impressed
It might not have as many features as other drawing apps, but it's certainly the most enjoyable and fluid. It would certainly benefit from even just one extra layer, a larger canvas setting, and an airbrush, then I would certainly delete sketchbook pro. Highly recommended.mbedd
Pretty Cool!
This app is really awesome in the way you can blend and add texture to your work and that's what sets this app apart from others and the reason I purchased it. A few suggestions would be to add like a maker/pencil tool or atleast the option to make your brush stroke continuous, add layers, better transparency scale, a playback feature, and another brush or two.Show lessFrostybojangles
Not happy
Despite it looking like a professional, easy to use app, Inspire is very difficult to paint with. The 'oil painting simulation' means you have to stop and reload your paintbrush. Very hard to pan and zoom in. Would not recommend unless you love a challenge.meblemm
Mehhhh.....
It's ok. Needs more tools. The zoom is a little clumsy. Compare it to sketchbook pro. The picture quality is not too great either. Once you zoom you can see alot of pixalation. This needs to handle higher resolution to be a 5 star rated app. For now it's just ok. Not worth the $5. Needs work. I'll give it a better rating once I see some updates. Otherwise 3 is too much...Show lessMadsculptor#1
Lives up to its name
Do we need another painting app for iPhone OS? When it's as good as this one, the answer is a resounding "Yes!"
Inspire effectively gives you a portable easel, canvas and a full set of oils and brushes without the mess or toxicity.
Corel Painter users will be familiar with the natural media feel, and will pleased to know that this app offers much greater stability and elegance than Corel's clunky offering.
The only thing Inspire lacks is layers, a feature which will no doubt be added in a later version. Canvas rotation would also be handy. To be very picky, I would note that the typeface on the opening options screen is very cheesy: please change it!

Even Better
I have used this app since the previous (first?) version and this has some nice improvements; the colour picker used to be VERY tedious to use and now is much quicker. The ability to email a much larger file is great too. As others have mentioned the ability to truly blend "paint" is fantastic. I still paint traditionally and this is as close as I have found to the real experience. Highly recommended.Show lessLensman888
Another Excellent Painting App
This app is right on par with programs like Brushes and Colors! in terms of abilities though there are some tweeks needed. The eyedropper tool should be more brushes like, allowing you to simply hold down to activate the dropper. The controls for the brushes are a little odd. You select the brush type and size in one window, and the rotation, paint load, and other aspects in a totally separate window. It could save time to have all brush controls in a single area while you paint. The other issue I have is the lack of TRANSPARENCY. It really needs this to be a completely usable app. I do love this apps brushes though and especially the dry brush effect that allows you to smear paint together in a fairly natural manner. Nice work.
UPDATE: now that Layers, Brushes, and Sketchbook Mobil all have layers, this app has fallen behind a bit. For an update, layers and a more professional looking splash screen and UI would catch this app back up. Still a great app though, just not quite as good as the top any more.Show lesskylekane
Excellent painting emulation
This is an excellent painting simulation app. Although you only have a choice of four brush styles/shapes, the effects that you can achieve with each brush are comprehensive, I am particularly a fan of the blending capabilities of the 'dry brush' feature. The colour selector is very good, and the interface is extremely well planned out-the intelligent toolbar hiding is excellent. My only tiny gripes are the 'low system memory' messages I sometimes get using this app (although so far it hasn't locked up or crashed...) and the way that the toolbar can sometimes pop up needlessly if you make two brush strokes in quick succession. Minor gripes and really nothing to hinder the usage of this app significantly, so five stars from me! N.B. A true 'fill' function tool that fills specific portions instead of the whole page would be a brilliant edition to a future update! Thanks! :)Show lessFuturemrsquinton
"This is a must buy!"
I read the reviews for inspire. They sounded quite good. i didn't want to waste my money, so I read the reviews through again and again. Finally, I bought it. It is a must have. If you switch your brush or color, it doesn't exit out! This application blends and paints like a brush! Also, the brushes are awesome. There's a normal brush, a fan brush, a pallet knife, and a round brush. You must get this!Show lessIpods r awesome
