Reviews of Sketchbook®

Amazing

For my first drawing apps ever this is amazing I thought that people only use ibis paint and I thought about getting it but when this popped up when I searched art I just downloaded it without looking. And I’ll tell you that it’s best thing I’ve ever done with my eyes closed this app has many different brushes and tools you can use to make your ideas come to life only flaw is that when you use bucket even the smallest gap it will escape but that’s it it’s an amazing app and I highly recommend it I’ve owned it for 3 and a half years and I still have it
Thx

Would rate higher but problems

I want to start this review off my just letting everyone know that I’ve loved this app for years. I think it’s a great alternative to apps like Procreate. However, I’ve noticed something wrong the last couple times I’ve used the app. I will be quite a far way into my art when I’ll go to save and the app will kick me out, and when I reopen it my last drawing will be ruined or just not there. The first time this happened the image I was using as a reference was duplicated in a grid all over the canvas and I was unable to undo or get any of my original layers back, thus destroying over two hours’ worth of work. The second time I was working on a commission, went to save, and it kicked me out again. My heart immediately dropped, since I was a good 3 hours into this piece and was very nearly done. When I reopened the app the drawing was gone. Not in the trash folder, not corrupted, just gone as if I’d never done it. I have tried updating the app, restarting my iPad, restoring my preferences, anything I could think of, and nothing has worked. Until the issue is resolved I’m afraid that I’ll have to use a different app, since I can’t afford to have hours worth of art disappear any time I try to save it.
