What's New in Inkling

3.1

September 17, 2026

Meet Curved Weave, a rebuilt Line Cut, and new ways into Inkling from the system. · New Curved Weave: two plates of ink lines interlace along one family of flow lines and bend around the subject, like a banknote engraving. Adjust density, line width and curl. Federal Blue with Fluorescent Pink by default. · Line Cut, rebuilt: contours thicken in the shadows, midtones are carried by hatching and cross-hatching, like a woodcut. Rough paper bites the lines. · Press Room: any print can be opened as an editable copy, with its photo, inks and text intact. The original stays as it is. · Shortcuts and Siri: "Print a photo with Inkling", "Open my press room", "Shuffle the look". Your prints show up in Spotlight. · The sample print now carries gold-foil lettering, with a nudge to tilt your phone once it is printed. · The paper panel preview follows the tilt too. · Text darkens and thickens when Increase Contrast or Bold Text is on.

Can’t purchase full version, support email doesn’t work

I’m hoping someone from the dev team sees this since the last update was only a couple days ago. When I try to pick any of the premium options, I get taken to a purchase screen that says “The purchase isn’t available yet.” When I tried the support email address on the app website, it bounced back as “couldn’t be found, or is unable to receive mail.” If these issues can be fixed, I would be happy to update my review.

Response from developer

Thank you for taking the time to report this — and I'm sorry you ran into it. You were right: the unlock wasn't being offered properly in the App Store build. It's fixed in version 2.6.1, which is now live — updating should sort it out. If anything still looks wrong, write to me at hello@nooption.xyz and I'll look into it right away. Thanks for trying Inkling, and for the patience. It's a one-person project, and reports like yours are genuinely how it gets better.

Love it

Amazing, super recommend to all of you guys
