  • Highly recommended.

    I’ve been using this app for about a year and a half, and it hasn’t disappointed me once. As a person who has used multiple drawing apps, I have to say this is the best one I’ve used yet! I enjoy using the brushes, as they are very high-quality, and specific ones can be very helpful. I enjoy the fact there are canvases that are already made and ready to have your next masterpiece put on to. There are only two things that I have small issues with, whenever I use “color balance” I can’t get out of that mode and I have to restart the app, which gets rid of the adjustments. And also the FacePaint feature can’t be found. I may be doing it wrong, but I don't know. Other than that, this is a great app, and I’ll be using this for a long time.

  • I like it but it could be better

    I think it’s a great app. I also think that it’s a bad app. I do make mistakes a lot, but that’s not why I think I it’s bad. I think it’s bad because I use a phone and yes I’m not the best artist and I don’t know what each button does exactly, but on a phone when I make mistakes I can never seem to find the undo button. I do know that procreate is much better. Yes this is a great app ,but to me I think it was a waste of money. I definitely think that this app could be much better with its features. What I think you can improve in this app is a lot. I definitely think that a new feature could be when you get a smaller spot the size of the marker changes when you change go a different spot of the picture. I do know that your probably not going to do that ,but that is just a suggestion. Even tho I don’t really like this app I’m still going to keep it because it keeps me busy. 🙂

  • Awe-dropping

    To start out, I’m not much of an artist. But I'm still interested in art. When I saw this app and the amount of features it had set in front of me to use, I couldn’t wait to buy it. It has amazing things and textures to use whenever needed. Calligraphy has been something I’ve been focusing on and it has plenty of styles for that as well! I would give this app a 7/5 but of course they don’t have that. It’s SO worth the 5 dollars you find in the couch. The developers of the game thought of every single thing one artist might make and set the tools to prepare them for it right in front of you. You can modify, warp, touch up, and so much more. I can’t keep myself off my phone anymore! All I have to say is thanks so much developers. This app is a life-saver and I don’t know why you haven’t bought it yet cause your missing out!

    (One minor problem- I noticed that I will accidentally make a mistake in my work. However, there is no back arrow, or at least that I know of, that is available. If there is I can’t seem to find it. However there is a lot of area of things to learn about this app and I’m still getting used to it.)

    Hey there - thank you for such an amazing, heartfelt review! It's lovely to hear how you've been enjoying Procreate Pocket, especially with the Calligraphy brushes and capabilities. 😇 If you make a mistake in Procreate Pocket, you can tap two fingers on the canvas at the same time to go back a step (Undo). You can also tap three fingers to go forward a step, too (Redo). We hope this helps! If ever you need any assistance, please don't hesitate to contact us (support.procreate.art) and we'll be more than happy to help out!
  • Feeling ecstatic with this new update 4.0

    I have been procreate user for years now. First of all kudos for the entire time for a job well done. You guys have been amazing and leading developers in the industry, who always listens to user requests and try to bring life to them in every update as possible as you can, after being used to procreate on iPad Pro, I kinda felt unhappy about pocket app and uninstalled it for some time now.

    After hearing again on media about pocket, I reinstalled pocket app today and it literally blew my mind. You guys are so amazing that you bought life to this app having all the same functionality as iPad Pro, now I feel like I can potentially use it all the time whenever I don’t have my iPad Pro. Granted iPad Pro have bigger screen and have Apple Pencil, but using pocket on my iPhone 12 Pro Max bigger screen making me feel ecstatic and bringing boundless joy to my heart. I can’t wait to see, what the team is planning for all future updates, ‘you guys ROCK’, keep up the good work. Please accept my sincere THANKS from the bottom of all my heart. 🥰😄

    Hi JJeevan - Your review literally made our day! 🥰 This is such awesome feedback to get after so many weeks of long hours that went into developing the latest version of Procreate Pocket. It's just nice to see the appreciation from our user base for the effort we put into making these apps. ❤️ Thank you!
  • Thank You Very Much :D

    I'm so very grateful for this amazing new 4.0 Procreate Pocket update. I was already thrilled when you guys brought so many of the iPad Procreate features over to this Pocket edition not that long ago it seemed. Yet, I'm just ecstatic now with you giving us even more of them. Really, you gave us all of them it looks like to me. Thanks a million!

    It's very hard to see much of difference between the iPad and iPhone version of Procreate anymore and that's something I've always dreamed of and wished for on this iPhone edition. To be able to finally have the awesome Animation Assist, the full brush creator, which is truly stunning I believe, you can even sign your brush creations. Also to have all of the many, many other new features is so wonderful I think. I'm flabbergasted by all the new items brought over to Pocket, thank you, you guys are the best ❤️.

    Again, Savage Interactive, you have my sincere thanks and gratitude for this newest update and for all of the hard work and time you no doubt put into bringing all of these amazing features over to the iPhone app. Thanks for everything and God bless all of you at S.I.

    Hi Joshua D. - We have no idea how much this amazing feedback means to us! The team has worked so incredibly hard on making this update the best for our users, and hearing that we’ve succeeded is all the reward we needed for weeks of sleepless nights. 😀
  • Mixed feelings :/

    I love this app but there are a few problems. First of all I don’t like how for example you cannot make a color changing brush on pocket but you can make it on the regular procreate. I thought this app was going to have the same exact features as the one on regular procreate. And for me it’s not just the brushes. Soooooo much other stuff I can complain about. Another example is where you can do a marble effect with liquify. On my phone it only does an abstract painting. On the iPad it does an actual marble effect. Most of the other stuff is fine. Another thing I want procreate and pocket to have is where you can send the color palettes or brushes in iMessages. I tried it with my friend but it didn’t work. She got it from Instagram and I couldn’t find the brush. It would really help if I had a response from the developer, thank you ✌🏼:)

  • Great app to bring your imagination to life!

    I thought on this app for about a week. When I get the itch to draw it’s more convenient than having to look for a pencil or paper. Easy to use once you play around, the kids can use it too. I am so happy with my purchase but there is one major thing that needs introduced, the REASON for a 4 stars because I feel it’s a big one. Other than that I would have given a 5!
    Do not close out your drawing if you are not finished. Ugh, I worked hours on a drawing and needed a break and closed out only to find I could not go back in and undo anything I had just done. Such a disappointment and a waste of time. The edit history really needs to be fixed. It’s enough to throw in the towel especially when you worked so hard on something to just trash it.
    Overall if youre into this kind of thing, just buy it, you really will not regret it and it’s only $5. 👍🏻

  • I don’t know how I feel about the app yet.

    I am just not quite sure if it’s worth the money yet, I have only had the app for about a day but still, I spent money on it. I had VERY high expectations for this app because I have heard so many good things about it, so I paid the $3.99 for it (which I thought was a little expensive). My cousin got the app and absolutely loves it, not quite sure if it’s on an iPad or a phone. She has made some incredible art with it. I got it and was kinda disappointed because 1. I have no idea how to work the app (maybe include a tutorial or something?) 2. I wanted to recreate this art that my cousin made and just couldn’t figure out how to edit the photo.

    I do have a question though- Why is the Procreate app for the iPad and the Procreate Pocket for the iPhone so different? I feel like I can’t really do anything on the Procreate pocket. I like doing lettering and stuff but I can’t fit it into the screen. Wouldn’t it be easier to just have the exact same app on 2 different devices?

    I can’t do anything! Please help me!

    Hi there – thanks for reaching out. To learn about the different tools and features in Procreate Pocket we recommend checking out our Procreate Pocket Handbook through Apple Books, as well as the introductory videos on our Instagram channel. (https://www.instagram.com/tv/B4PZDSnhHqX/?igshid=8lq5rokrzg1) There are a few differences between Procreate and Procreate Pocket. The main one being that Procreate 5 is designed and optimised for the iPad whereas Procreate Pocket is designed and optimised for the iPhone. Price wise, Procreate is available for US $9.99 and Procreate Pocket for US $4.99, both exclusively on the App Store. This is a one time cost with no in app purchases.  Procreate 5 for the iPad has a few features that are not yet included in Procreate Pocket. Some of these features include Animation Assist, Clone tool and Dark Interface. We plan to continue updating Procreate Pocket to bring in some of these new features and better performance. If you have any queries, please don't hesitate to get in touch via our Support Form. We'll be happy to help. 😄 (https://support.procreate.art/)
  • Wonderful but...

    I really am liking Procreate and it’s very good to make different types of paintings and bring out your creatively amazing mind! But I have a few problems to share.. For example I don’t want to have to make every single thing a layer! A redo button would be good for it like FlipaClip and I think IbisPaint has one. Another is that we’re it says Previous colors you can make the previous color right? Well I am rather clumsy and I would click on the wrong color so I changed it to get another color then I need the color before the accident color. So basically I did Purple then didn’t mean to click on Orange so I thought I was done with Purple so I clicked on Red but then I needed Purple but on previous colors it only goes back one. So please for people like me can you make the previous color go back more then just one?!
    Thank you for your time and I love you app!

  • Awesome app but...

    What I love: I’ve been drawing on my phone for a while and I decided that I needed an upgraded app. I had been using other free apps that you had to pay for the full version to get everything. I saw a lot of people saying to get procreate (not pocket), so I decided to get it! It has a lot of brushes, and YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN!!!! I love that aspect of it!

    To make it better: I love watching people draw and do tutorials, and I get so excited to do them. I go into the app and then I follow along until I get to a spot where it doesn’t have the same features of the iPad. Maybe you could make them the same and by doing that, make them the same price??

    Overall: I’ve never drawn on an iPad or tablet, so this is a good experience. I highly recommend getting this if you ever want the best drawing app. 5 BUCKS FOR IT!! THAT IS AMAZING!! As I said before, I wish it had the same features of the iPad, but I would love to see what the creators can do next!!
