Waste of money

Do not buy this app!!! I bought it because I was so excited to use my new iPad pencil. The app doesn't work at all. None of the buttons will work so you can't create a new page, erase or select the pencil. Can I please get my money back?

FAQ

What does Pencil Doodle do?

Pencil Doodle is a digital sketching application that allows users to draw various sketches. Its unique feature is a "Stick Man Recognition Engine" that can bring drawn stick figures to life, allowing them to move and interact on the screen.

How do I make a stick man come alive?

To increase the chances of your stick man coming alive, follow the included instructions and demo video. It's recommended to draw in landscape orientation with pencils and the eraser at the bottom, and ensure arms, legs, and the body are drawn as separate, simple straight lines.

Is Pencil Doodle free to use?

Yes, Pencil Doodle is a free application. There are no in-app purchases or advertisements mentioned in the provided description, indicating it is entirely free for users.

What drawing tools are available?

The app provides an "HB pencil" for lighter sketches and a "2B pencil" for darker effects. It also includes an eraser that allows you to erase only parts of your sketch, or you can shake the device (on compatible devices) to erase everything.

Can I move the stick man once it's animated?

Yes, once a stick man is recognized and animated, you can move it by 'grabbing' its head. You can also double-tap anywhere on the paper to guide the stick man's movement.
