  • Love it but,

    I wish it had a speed paint feature, from what I’m seeing there is no speed paints and that’s the main reason I didn’t switch to this app. I really do enjoy it and it’s a great app but I think ibis is better just because of the speed paint feature.

  • Excellent, but could use some work with checking the layers!

    I am in love with the pen pressure and the brushes in this app!! But when I check the layers, specifically looking for the background, it’s usually buried at the bottom, with me being unable to find the background layer unless i remove/delete my other layers to find it. It’s very tedious to me, as sometimes I’d want to export my drawing to be transparent!! I’m in love with everything else, but I believe that a fix in the layer system and perhaps a reference window could definitely help.

  • Add new features

    I love this app but the only problem is is that you need new features like you can add animations, add vector layer, add more filters, and add this feature in a layer where you can change the color of the lines

  • Selection/transform tool issues

    Enjoying the app so far, and I love the brushes. Some of the only issues I’ve been having is with the selection tool, and extreme difficulty with transforming/reshaping/resizing the selected area.
    First of all, I’d love to see a feature where you can add to the select area. As of now, you can only select one area at a time and if you try to select another part, the first selection gets deleted. Its extremely inconvenient if you want to select very precise areas, to make a new selection every time you want to change the parts you select.
    I don’t want to completely redraw the selection every time I want to add like 5 pixels.
    Most users need to select their entire lineart, which requires a super precise selection and a lot of attention to detail; it’s unrealistic to perfectly outline your lineart with the selection tool all in one go without every moving around, zooming in/out, and fixing mistakes. This is the only part which I find significant subpar to other drawing apps.

    Additionally, after you do select something, the transforming process is quite laggy. It often glitches and is hard to control. Ex. I wanted to lengthen a selected area, instead, the selected part shrank in the other direction, and often doesn’t respond to touch/swipes. This happens with both finger and stylus. I think there should be more than one transform mode too, like a mesh transform mode so you have more flexibility and control.

  • Need ability to assign shortcuts and gestures + image reference feature!!!

    I’m a new iPad/ tablet user trying out different art apps. So far! I’m loving the experience with Pastela because it reminds me much of Paint Tool SAI, a drawing program I’ve been using for 8 years.

    i only wish for the ability to change and assign shortcuts, plus a built-in image reference window. Thanks

  • Chronically underrated app

    Very very good! It’s very easy to understand and use. Can customize your brushes and pretty great for drawing in general. Highly recommend.
  • Great but not friendly.

    It’s an amazing drawing app. Compare to others this is far superior however every app has it’s own flaws. I kind of wished this app was versatile towards other devices because as a apple and android user, I would love to be able to use this app on both devices. A friendly suggestion, please consider adding this app to allow android users to have their fun too not just the apple users.

  • Love it!

    Very useful features and easy navigation. I especially love how you get to customize your brushes, the panels, and how organized it all is. Has everything an artist needs and more! :)
