My Go-To Drawing App
I have multiple drawing apps but this is definitely the one I find myself going back to the most. Yes, I know Procreate (which I also own and love) has a lot more functionality and, if you need those extra features, go for it. But Sketches has everything I need most often, without the clutter of a bunch of additional options I’m probably never going to use anyway. The interface is straightforward and friendly. The app is rock steady and unbuggy. And it’s just damned fun to use. I even like the sounds. In fact, I almost always keep the sounds turned on with the volume up just loud enough to hear, without disturbing others. It’s heartbreaking whenever you find a favorite creative app that eventually gets discontinued. Sadly, that’s happened to me more than once. But it seems the developers of this app are really committed to it, which is just one more reason I’m glad I fell in love with this one. I plan to use Sketches for a long, long time. And I can’t endorse it highly enough.Show less🪲🪲🪲🪲🪲🪲
I used to use this app to make most of my art until it updated and got rid of the community. The features are fine mostly, sometimes if there are too many layers it will crash. I don't know about others experiences but its always saved my work when it crashed. Now it doesn't have the community and you have to pay for more things? I had Sketches Pro before it updated so maybe I just didn't have to I guess? Also I noticed Pro is more expensive now, also not cool. And the community thing, I understand it was difficult to moderate but it was a safe community with simple features and not a lot of ways to give negative comments on others work. People mostly just had art contests and complimented each others work if there were any interactions between users at all. It's on instagram now, but most people who used the community aren't on there. Most people who used it weren't even allowed on instagram. So while I appreciate the updates to tools, I miss the simplicity and positivity of the community. If you do manage to improve the features enough to a point where you can put in the effort to bring back the community, please do because I think me and a lot of others would appreciate it.Show lessIt's good but it needs some improvements.
Sometimes the app will freezes up. Every time I try to delete a color in the color palette the app shuts down. The eyedropper needs to be improved particularly when you touch the screen it will show up when you don't want it to, when you touch the screen and hold it there and don't move it there should be at least one second delay before the eyedropper appears on the screen. When you're in the main menu and you want to open up a painting you have to touch it about four or five times for it to open up. One more thing this is with the watercolor brushes, when you're painting a medium to large size areas you get these cauliflower and other similar patterns and it depends on the color and the opacity level, I usually set my opacity level at 50% and I still get those patterns and it can be a lot, it would nice if those patterns were toned down quite a bit. I'm using a iPad Pro 12.9 inch and it's got the latest update.Show less
