What is up with that?! ### 1/5 — My opinion *2026-08-23, version 1.6.9* I feel like it’s very limited for free 2 draw artists I don’t recommend plus plz add size adjustments to every brush pencil strokes colour and eraser ### 5/5 — Artist *2026-08-23, version 1.6.9* 10 out of 10 ### 3/5 — Great app, but some things could improve *2026-08-21, version 1.6.9* I wish there were more free tools so we can enjoy more while buying less ### 5/5 — I love it *2026-08-19, version 1.6.9* Just love it cuz I’m an artist ### 5/5 — The BEST *2026-08-18, version 1.6.9* It’s a REALLY good drawing app. I constantly use it ! ### 4/5 — Nice *2026-08-14, version 1.6.9* Hi so it is amazing and I love it but… I think what you can add is to able to change the size of the brush or easer.
