All Versions of Procreate

5.3.10

June 13, 2024

Say hello to the exciting new features for Apple Pencil Pro in Procreate. Apple Pencil Pro with Procreate unlocks new ways to customize your favorite brushes, introducing new possibilities for your workflow. This update releases support for barrel roll, squeeze and haptic feedback. Brush Settings for barrel roll Barrel roll supercharges Procreate brushes in Brush Studio, providing a new way to control shape rotation, stroke jitter, color dynamics, grain rotation, size, opacity and more. You can add barrel roll to many other settings in the Apple Pencil tab, or by tapping the numeric entry button on the slider and switching on barrel roll. Squeeze Hover over your canvas and squeeze to select the layer you wish to work on, speeding up navigation on even the most complex projects. Squeeze to pick colors with Eyedropper or use QuickMenu to activate shortcuts without ever touching the screen. Assign squeeze to custom actions with Actions → Prefs → Gesture controls. Haptic feedback Haptic feedback provides a more tactile experience when making selection masks, transforming layers, using ColorDrop, drawing QuickShapes and more. Try turning on Snapping on the Transform toolbar to feel the layer snap to the canvas edges. Liquify Twirl with barrel roll You now have full control over rotation in Liquify Twirl. Twist the Apple Pencil Pro back and forth to bend your layers exactly how you want them.

Reviews of Procreate

  • Fantastic App, Tricky for certain disabilities

    I use this app all the time for everything I need to design. I’m especially grateful that Procreate is not based on a subscription model, which is the reason I left Adobe products behind.

    I also teach an Intro to Digital Illustration class where we solely use Procreate to learn about concepts like layers, masks, selections, and effects. The students overall have responded positively to the ease of use in the app and its capabilities. However, I have had a few students with disabilities, both physical and technological. I teach that there are usually multiple ways to accomplish your goals in illustration and using the app. I have shown them where they can modify settings to smooth their brushstrokes, switch the Size/Opacity panel to their preferred side, etc. In that I am really grateful to Procreate for designing with accessibility. However, the gestures are what these students struggle with the most. Their hand/ eye coordination paired with already shaky hands makes it next to impossible to move a brush into a folder or a layer up or down the list. Even students without these issues struggle to understand the feel of touch and drag controls. As far as I know, these are designed from Apple’s gesture controls but there is no way to bypass them in the app. If the next development comes out with other ways to move these things around I would absolutely give it 5 stars.

    Hey rccobler - Thank you for using Procreate and for sharing your experience as well as feedback with us. We will for sure note it down as a reference for future development and we look forward to making Procreate even better in the future.
  • I FINALLLY see what the hype was about😊👌🏿🌌🌟

    I’m always seeing shorts made from this app and I’m like-“don’t tell me this is all it’s good for.” BUUUUT, now I’m using it daily and it helps me make my Webtoon, it helps me make my character sheets (and shorts) and it’s actually… not actually just straight up best. A con of the app? I think the only thing that annoys me is that the canvas size determines how many layers u have. On Ibas paint, I could have up to 200 layers on a big canvas and it wouldn’t care. Sure, maybe lag every now and again, but I have a generally laggy tablet. I would like to have more than 2 layers on a character sheet, or more than 7 for my Webtoon. The app overall is still really great and the amount of brushes overloaded MY system. I’m gonna say right here I’ve never left a long review before this, but this app deserves one. It’s so perfect in a lot of ways, but like anything, it has cons. Either way, no matter what ur doing, this app helps and I say this from a comic designer, a shorts maker, and a devoted artist. I hope you like this app 😊 like, kudos to the developers 🙌👏 KUDOS 2 U- I mean, a app that you can make it look like a REAL PAINTING or like those trends you always see, I mean CMON THATS A STEAL! Sometimes I think that “huh…did I waste 13 bucks?” But I’m also saying “NAH MAN, THIS APP IS WORTH IT!”

    Developer Response

    Hey Tasokei - Thank you very much for taking the time to leave us a thorough review! We are glad that you found Procreate handy and we appreciate you for all your kind words. In terms of the layer limit, it was introduced to ensure the fastest and most stable performance in Procreate across all supported devices. That being said, allowing more layers is something we are working on and definitely looking forward to in the future. 🙏
  • Accessibility questions and concerns

    This is a very good app! It's probably one of the best digital art apps on the iOS market, but I have a few extremely minor complaints/suggestions for how you could improve. Can you please add a feature where you're able to change the layout of the program based on which version you prefer? I have no idea when the last time I updated Procreate was, but I had the version where there wasn't a menu for arcs, and you could just pick and choose whether you wanted a line, quadrilateral, circle, etc. without making two clicks to go into a menu. I haven't seen any other apps do this, so I think this would be a very interesting and revolutionary thing to do, and it would be really helpful because a lot of people have a hard time adjusting to updates and just want to have all the patches that come with an update without having to deal with new layouts or dramatic changes from what they're used to. I'm super into this app, and I use it all the time for art and animation, so I'm willing to adjust to the changes, but I'm just throwing this out there as a suggestion because it would really help me and a lot of other people because I've been in a lot of digital art classes, and I CONSTANTLY hear people complaining about software updates and how it changes the layout and makes it difficult for them to use 😂😂😂
