Love this app

Have used this app for about 3 years to adapt my water Colour paintings into products. Find it intuitive and very easy to use.

too often

you have been asking for approval stars far too often. Polling the same people so often may deceive newcomers. Please stop it. Meantime you will get one star instead of five. - Your choice. also Oct 26

Thought it would be different !!PLS READ!!

It wouldn’t let me save my work unless I paid for a subscription which I thought was really dumb and I think that I kinda got scammed when I downloaded it so this is just a warning to whoever downloads it but using the app it seems that it's overall a pretty okay app it's just the pay to say that I really dislike about it. I get it but can you please let us save without having to spend real money especially for those who aren't allowed in app purchases or subscriptions like me and many others. It does have an fair amount of brushes though but more layers is also put behind a paywall aswell as many other features that i find pretty important in digital art. I dont do digital art anymore but my friends use ibspaint and recommended it to me so maybe try that if you want a alternate choice.

I hate it

I literally worked on a drawing for two straight hours and then my thing crashed since i was using the free version i cant recover it

One of the best painting apps out there

I’ve been using this apps as one of my main tools for professional work and oh god I love it. I still pretty amazed in how is not as popular even when it’s one of the most complete ones.
