I used to always be bored and I didn’t know what game to play on my iPad until I found doodle. Doodle helped me so much and it is a very fun game to play,it can help increase my art skill as and at the same time, I am having fun! I really appreciate doodle so thank you. ❤️ ### 5/5 — I love drawing on this app *2026-05-29, version 3.2.0* One complaint is that it sometimes doesn’t draw ### 5/5 — E.er *2026-05-27, version 3.2.0* I lol ### 4/5 — I love doodle but…. *2026-05-16, version 3.2.0* Let’s start up with the bad stuff there isn’t a lot, but I wish that there was an undo button by the trashcan. If you actually threw away something I also wish there was more like maybe you could do shapes. Or just pick shapes out to make your drawing easier and also I love this game. It’s just so nice and fun and there’s so many different things we could do. You should definitely buy it. ### 4/5 — 𝙒𝙞𝙨𝙝𝙚𝙨 *2026-05-10, version 3.2.0* 𝙄 𝙬𝙞𝙨𝙝 𝙞𝙩 𝙝𝙖𝙙 𝙡𝙞𝙠𝙚 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙄 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙈𝙖𝙗𝙮𝙚 𝙟𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙪𝙥𝙜𝙧𝙖𝙙𝙚 𝙞𝙩 𝙝𝙤𝙬 𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧. ### 2/5 — Nope *2026-05-10, version 3.2.0* Not the best app it is so hard to control and keeps moving my screen also.

There is some things you could add like: 3-D models, more pens and a way to animate your drawings. I know there is doodle pro but I don't have it so idk what is different. This is a really good app and I would recommend but it would be good if some of these feturures were... featured, if you know what I mean. Edit: there's also this bug where the colour palette freezes so the only way to change the color is if you delete the drawing that you spent 5 hours doing 😞 Please fix this ### 5/5 — dubistgutgenuuuuuuttttt *2026-06-14, version 3.2.0* love it love it love it ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-06-12, version 3.2.0* You should really get its a super fun and there is no ads💯👍😆😃 ### 5/5 — Cool App *2026-06-10, version 3.2.0* Awesome and cool! ### 5/5 — I love this app💓 *2026-06-10, version 3.2.0* I am so glad that there is a app where you can show art work 💻 ### 5/5 — AWSOME *2026-06-07, version 3.2.0* I love this app 🥰🥰🥰🥰 ### 5/5 — Bob *2026-05-31, version 3.2.0* So so so good for making diograms and brawing --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
