** look at the video tutorials put online on our site **

iPocket Draw is a vector drawing program comprehensive (CAD 2D), which offers to you total control over your drawing.
This Lite version includes a limitation on the number of objects (50) by drawing.
Of course all the simple drawing tools are available: line, rectangle, oval, arc, polygon, text.
But also tools of free line with vectorization option (recognition of simple shapes), spline, regular polygon.
All attributes of each object can be edited and changed: line color, line thickness, background color, dotted, arrow, font ...
But also the coordinates of each object because iPocket Draw lets you draw with a scale chosen and modified.
iPocket Draw also has a cotation tool simple and multiple.
And functions of attraction powerful and accurate on the ends of objects but also the centers and on the intersections between all object types.
The drawing area is not limited.
The number of objects either.
The zoom in and out either.
The number of undo either.
You can draw on several layers and create configurations of layers.
You have an object library that you can complete as you want.
A comprehensive menu command allows you to: select all, copy, cut, paste, group, ungroup, lock, unlock, duplicate, move, mirror horizontally or vertically, rotate, align, distribute, create parallel, divide, change the scale, converting in lines, polygon, send back, put in front of.
You can insert photos or images or pdf files in your drawings.
iPocket Draw has a file manager from which you can send your drawings by e-mail format iPocket Draw (RealCADD) or DXF or pdf or jpg image.

### 1/5 — Does this work?

*2025-11-02*

I can’t get any edit tools to do anything. No fillets or chamfers no trimming no anything. Why would anyone buy this?

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2025-02-06*

Works great on my iPhone 11 running iOS 18.  
I was able to draft up a router template for woodworking and able to print it to scale.

### 1/5 — Schrott

*2023-04-01, version 3.50*

Schrott auch hier beweisen die Programmierer mal wieder, dass du Schwachkopf wir sind. Nichts funktioniert vernünftig. Ständig kommt die Werbung, so dass wir nicht mal ausprobieren kann ob man sich vielleicht die Vollversion gekauft. Selber schuld ihr Idioten lernt mal vernünftigen abzuschreiben Jan van der Freudliche spielt auch nicht so viel an den Füßen.

### 1/5 — What’s the point.. app freezes before even getting started

*2022-10-01*

I am on an iPad Pro trying to plan out a 2D backyard garden.. when I set the measurements to Ft and Degrees THEN zoom out, the app freezes.

**Developer response:** Sorry Tombspawn for this problem.
Do you have it only with one drawing?
Can you send it to me, please?
My mail is in the screen "About" button "©Eric Pousse..."
Thanks.

### 4/5 — Good 2d technical drawing

*2021-08-26*

Good complement of tools executed in iOS using a magnified selection window (to see behind your pointing device, finger), indication of basic snap points, and a combination of tap, double tap, drag and long tap gestures. You can define a user library. The lite version interrupts with ads,  but seems to have all the features of the full app. Read the manual on the website and watch the tutorials to understand the functions and appreciate the value. If you liked Claris Cad or Ashlar Vellum, and need it to work on iOS, you will like this. And, it is compatible with the Mac OS app Realcadd.

### 5/5 — DXFビューアーとして最適

*2021-08-14*

DXFファイルの閲覧だけなら、これが1番無料アプリの中では容量食わないかも。

### 2/5 — 50 is your limit on the lite version

*2020-04-30, version 2.06*

Played around with this app and initially reasonably pleased, created a few simple drawings and found the app relatively user friendly. Decided to use the app to draw a network schematic, spent a couple of hours creating my drawing, however when I came to save, you guessed it, sorry can’t save - max items 50. Opps. Perfect opportunity for the dev to make some money, I would have signed up straight away... but, all my work disappeared apart from the first 50 items. Okay my fault I should have twigged about the limited save function but to delete all my work without warning was pretty annoying. 

Will I now pay for the full version? No. Currently too frustrated to give money to the dev. 

 Let this be a warning to others.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2019-04-12, version 2.06*

Don’t waste your time with this! The help is non existent and the tutorial is just there to make it more complicated. It took that long to try with it at work on site I found it quicker to drive back to the office which took an hour and do it there correctly anyway. It’s a shame you have to put a star at all !!! RUBBISH!!!!!!

### 5/5 — Super logiciel de dessin

*2018-06-13, version 2.06*

Je viens de découvrir iPocket Draw, et je suis bluffé ! J’ai essayé plusieurs logiciels de dessin 2D sur IPad, et je n’ai jamais vraiment été convaincu.  Je pratique Acad depuis sa version 13 ( il y a très longtemps).
Je trouve enfin avec iPocket Draw une logique de dessin pour les dessinateurs, avec toutes les possibilités d’accrochage ainsi que la précision dans le dessin. Je l’utilise avec un Apple Pencil, et c’est tout bonnement génial. Je vais probablement passer à la version complète, et tester aussi RealCADD, car passer de la tablette au mac et inversement, c’est super quand on a toujours un projet en tête.
Bravo pour votre boulot.

### 4/5 — Great CAD app

*2017-12-19*

I use PocketDraw for all my precision drawings. Snaps need more options, and trimming-extending tool can be tricky. Otherwise, I think it's one of the best drawing apps available so far.
