It takes a long time to load and I still can't access it. ### 2/5 — Lưu file trên icloud app *2026-04-20, version 28.20.2* cứ lưu vào file vào icould trên app là mất miết ### 3/5 — Too many ads! (also doesn’t save anything for me) *2026-04-04, version 28.20.2* it’s really easy and fun to use, but the ads keep interfering with everything. I accidentally went out of the app before saving, and for some reason it wouldn’t let me exit the ad. I had to restart the drawing because it didn’t save. ### 4/5 — Nice App! *2026-03-01, version 28.19* I have used this App for about two years now and honestly, it‘s nice! There is Lots of Features while drawing and they help a LOT. Even if you don’t understand all of them, with some knowledge on the App you can make amazing Art! I can‘t live though, the ads get in the way sometimes. But turning of my wifi fixed that! 4/5 ### 2/5 — app doesn’t work now *2026-02-26, version 28.19* this app used to work and i had a lot of drawings saved on here but now it no longer works and wont let me click on anything when i open the app ### 5/5 — 짱 좋음 *2026-02-18* 일단 너무 좋음 광고도 조금만 보면 바로 유로 모드 3시간동안 쓸수있고 편함 근데 텍스트는 무조건 유로 모드로 해야함 그부분이 좀 아쉬움 근데 사용하기도 편하고 가성비도 좋고 해서 굳임 ### 2/5 — Berbatt *2026-02-06, version 28.17* Eskiden daha iyiydi şimdi küfür yemek için zaman kaybı özellikler getirmişler Herhangi bir telefonda tahmini 2 gün kalır bu gidişatla eşki medibangı istiyoruz 🖤 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Waste of time *2026-08-24, version 28.25.1* Way too many adds, I wanted to use black, it kept giving me pink. You have to watch more adds just to get another brush. Don't get this, I'm disappointed. ### 1/5 — 图层移动有bug！！能不能修一下啊 *2026-07-30, version 28.23* 修秀秀 ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-07-28, version 28.23* I heard many good stuff about this app. but now that I try it doesn’t let me even draw. What’s the point of having a app that supposed to be for drawing when I can’t even draw? Dissapointed. ### 1/5 — Used to love this app *2026-06-24, version 28.23* It has become unusable due to the sheer amount of ads, if there was a one time purchase to permanently disable ads I’d do it but the one thing I despise is subscription services/models, the Medibang version on my old iPod only has one ad when you first boot the app but you can use anything and do anything even closing and opening canvases ect without infuriating pop up ads, it’s a big shame since this used to be fantastic free app I used to recommend but now it spams ads in your face most of which are unskippable ads every second I feel it is frustrating and infuriating, I would rather have a one time payment of a paid version with no ads like Firealpaca SE but Medibang version with no subscription models, even if it was expensive for a one time permanent purchase that removes all ads completely I’d be happy. These devs have made this app a really awful experience for a free app TLDR: - app is now so full of ads it shoves down your throat which it never used to have - the only way to stop ads is with an expensive subscription model - app is borderline unusable and unbearable and infuriating to use due to there being more ads and more features locked behind the subscription - this app would be better off with a one time but more expensive purchase to permanently remove ads to make this app more usable or using the option below - make a paid version of medibang with more features than this free one that’s a one time upfront cost to get the app but has no ads and all the premium features unlocked with the purchase of the app ### 1/5 — app doesn’t work now *2026-06-01, version 28.23* this app used to work and i had a lot of drawings saved on here but now it no longer works and wont let me click on anything when i open the app ### 1/5 — Overmonetized *2026-04-03, version 28.20.2* To use any feature that used to be free in the you now ether have to pay for premium or watch an ad to get only 3 hrs of use. That’s insane. ### 1/5 — Дизайн *2026-03-26, version 28.20.2* Оформление,дизайн очень наворочен,сложный и неудобный, года 3-4 назад было лучше,намного приятнее и проще ### 1/5 — Neither the expand nor the outline functions are available. *2026-03-02, version 28.19* Neither the expand nor the outline functions are available. ### 1/5 — 新版本不好用 *2026-02-27, version 28.19* 不要ios26玻璃的樣子。。改成以前的 放大鏡的確認鍵也沒有了？ ### 1/5 — 更新後難用 *2026-02-25, version 28.19* 廣告多。界面設計垃圾超級難用 ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — O bebê gosto mais de você do que de mim *2026-08-14* Eu adoro esse app. Eu literalmente desenho sempre nele hehehe ### 5/5 — 먼지없는 완벽한 먼지의 메디방 리뷰✨ *2026-08-03* 프리미엄을 안하면 원하는 펜을 마음대로 고를수가 없어서 좀 아쉽지만! 원하는 퀄리티, 메디방 초보 도서관이나, 선택항목, 어떤사람의 그림도 구경할 수 있어서 참 좋은 앱인 것 같다! ### 5/5 — It’s so simple to use I only had one problem and it was because I’m bad creating accounts *2026-08-03, version 28.23* No words just admiration ### 5/5 — My 2nd favorite art app. *2026-07-08, version 28.23* I used to always draw on this app, and today i am redownloading it. It is a great art app, even though I switched to IbisPaintX a while ago. If you are thinking about getting it for a beginner art app, do it! It’s easy to use.-AS ### 5/5 — Bro *2026-07-02, version 28.23* It is better than any thing ### 5/5 — Enak *2026-06-06, version 28.23* Bagus banget ### 5/5 — 흐음.. 나는 심사위원 *2026-05-19* 진짜 좋은뎅 테블릿으로 그릴때는 가로가 안되는것이 단점이에요. 또 로그인을 하면 괜찮은데 안하면 광고도 많고 못 쓰는 브러쉬가 너무 많아요. ㅠㅠ 근데 사진추가는 어떻게 하는지 아시는분 있나여? 저는 몰라서.. 하지만!! 장점이 얼마나 많은지! 저는 추천드려요! 처음에 앱 시작할때 사용방법도 알려줘요! ### 5/5 — 캔버스 사이즈 수정 버그 *2026-04-13* 안녕하세요. 메디방 몇년째 사용중인 유저입니다. 기존 무료 브러쉬들이 광고로 바뀐것이 아쉽지만 잘 쓰고 있었습니다. 그런데, 최근 그림을 그리다 중간에 캔버스 사이즈 수정을 하려고 하면 사이즈 입력칸이 이상하게 떠서 입력할 수 없습니다. 아이패드로 사용중인데 저에게만 나타난 버그일까요? 빨리 고쳐지면 좋겠습니다..ㅠ ### 5/5 — Wow *2026-03-08, version 28.19* Despite using Ibis paint more often, when I come back, this still shocks me how well I could draw with this Though I do have a possible idea for a new add on, make it so we can make custom brushes but we don’t have to pay! I believe that will get you a lot more 5 star reviews and more attention!! - Xavier, a frequent young artist (mainly traditional) ### 5/5 — 有bug望抓紧修复 *2026-03-07, version 28.19* 选择扩大、描画边缘后没有确定按钮，无法使用这两个功能。望抓紧修复 --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
