Don’t get

There are only a few choices to pick from and none of them look good. Big disappointment

Useless

App pretty much does nothing, don’t waste your money 👎

App turns your photos into real art. We're not sure what you meant.

App turns your photos into a real art. Did you expect something else ?

Does not work

I have tried numerous times to access my photo library with OS, however each time it locks up on a blank white screen. I have to delete the app to “unlock it”. I have reinstalled OS at least 3 times with the same end result. I am using a 7Plus. Also, when going to tech support you are required to use Twitter... I don’t use twitter and have no plans to install ... so, I guess I got the shaft 2 ways!

This issue was fixed in the latest update. If you like the app please update the review :)

Not good

Oil Sketch seems to have only one oil paint setting, and it isn't even good quality. Then you have some color variations. Applied each to a camera roll photo--very blah. There are many apps (JixiPix, for example) that do an amazing job turning your photos into art. Deleting now.
