Let me do other things! ### 2/5 — Pls be free *2026-09-06, version 5.3* Just have every thing free ### 2/5 — Ads *2026-08-13, version 5.3* To many ads every second and it does not work 😢😢 ### 3/5 — Well *2026-08-06, version 5.3* I was trying to draw my sister using the ai and it kept saying there was no human face in the picture I was using. like hello? My sister is a human! Also it is hard to use the projector on an I pad. The rest was okay but I’m not using that app again. ### 2/5 — Not that great *2026-08-03, version 5.3* They do teach you how to draw some pretty goofy animals but other than that you have to subscribe to a membership and you can’t draw anything else ### 3/5 — It is good *2026-07-29, version 5.3* I think how to draw is very good because it gives you different step by step instructions however it sometimes Is hard to get the right details but also it is good because you can change step whenever you BUT you can only draw about like 10 animals for free you can redraw them as well and if you want to unlock everything else with is eyes flowers and cute drawings then you have to pay £2.99 monthly but you can do free trials but I think it is better simply draw money wise as simply draw gives you better tips and techniques for drawing and shading however for a month you have to pay £14.99 and for a year you have to pay about £199 so I would say if you want realistic drawing steps either have the money for simply draw or watch a YouTube video on how to draw well or if you want easy drawings for less money get this game how to draw or again look on YouTube specifically at my fav YouTuber draw so cute ☺️ ### 3/5 — Stuped *2026-07-21, version 5.3* Omg it looked like a normal drawing game but know it is so stuped it is like a baby game ### 4/5 — Good app *2026-07-07, version 5.3* I have a request that they do videos instead of the blank steps ! But overall I am pretty happy with the results ### 2/5 — Money *2026-06-30, version 5.3* I downloaded this app thinking that it didnt need money. But when i first used the app i didnt need to pay because I was in the section of animals. But then when i tried to draw something else, it asked to pay money. ### 4/5 — Bast app! Just a few suggestions.. *2026-06-23, version 5.3* When I read the reviews of this app, It was either really good. Or really bad and this was making me curious. So I downloaded it. Ok I started at animals and the animals were so cute! Somehow someone said they were ugly and weird. OPPOSITE!! I started with the penguin. It looked so good!! But when I went into the cute section. I had to pay.. But the animals were so so cute that I don’t care about the payments!! Keep up the good work!! Oh and the suggestions, Was that I would like more animal paintings!! Kitten is cute 🥰 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Money *2026-09-08, version 5.3* My only complaint is that I do not like that you have to pay for the cute or cool drawings why can’t it be free for kids ### 1/5 — Why??? *2026-08-24, version 5.3* This sucks. Really. I got this thinking it was cute and looked fun but all you can do is draw a bunch of stupid looking animals if you don’t pay a bunch of money to unlock the other stuff and there’s not even a lot to unlock anyway. DON’T GET THIS APP!! TRUST ME! IS TRASH!!! ### 1/5 — Penelope *2026-08-06, version 5.3* Dude it doesn’t even show u right it just shows u picture The only better thing is that it doesn’t cost money to do some of the things ### 1/5 — What the heck! *2026-08-03, version 5.3* Now I have been going through a lot of drawing apps lately. I wrote a review to Simply Draw, saying it was too much money. But when I looked at this, you can only draw this wonky stuff. And, everything else you have to pay for. It's like why is every drawing app you have to pay for it? I I'm starting to get mad. I might be the first person to write a review to every drawing app in American history. But please look at this. I mean, do not download this app ### 1/5 — You can’t even ask for help on it. It just shows you and it’s so complicated. It is not good. *2026-07-30, version 5.3* It’s horrible ### 1/5 — …… *2026-07-12, version 5.3* Literally just wow basically the only thing you can draw r the animals so yeah I do not recommend this app ### 1/5 — 😡😡😡 *2026-07-10, version 5.3* This was trash 🗑️ i tried this app and it made me cry it wasnt hard but my drawing looked like trash after this app should never have existed people that are about to get this dont get it ### 1/5 — Not good *2026-07-10, version 5.3* This doesn’t help my child get better at drawing at all. ### 1/5 — Suckish *2026-07-09, version 5.3* This app sucks from the start you have to buy the art lessons🙁☹️😭😭😭😡don’t waste your life on this app pls ### 1/5 — Absolute hate *2026-06-27, version 5.3* This app attempted to make me pay to draw anything that wasn’t an animal and it failed miraculously but that doesn’t matter what matters is that this app sucks and I 100% do NOT recommend if you get this be prepared to waste money just to draw a popsicle if I could make this have 0 ⭐️s.
