Amazing it’s worth the price

Procreate is one of the best digital art app I have come across of, It gives you many brushes and canvas availability and an animation tool, I have used it for over a year now and love it I have made so much progress on my artistic journey with this app it has given me the confidence t r harder in not only digital art but in classic to. Definitely recommend to any artist.

Awesomee

I love this app a lot, ive been using it since 2022… tbh i only bought an ipad for this app and it has paid off!! Though there are a few issues, like theres been an issue for me where ive been trying to reorder the layers but it just glitches and doesnt, other than that awesome app keep it up!!

Best drawing app ever

This app is so easy for me and I’m only 11 I like to test all the different brushes and it’s fun.

Decent

I mean from ibis paint to procreate? It’s alright it’s confusing, lack of tutorial, but the brushes are free and along with effects. (After you buy the app of course) Pretty decent for 12 bucks.

Procreate review

I have been using this app for 3 years! It’s great! It’s easy to use, and has lots of features like different sections for brushes, and others too! I highly recommend. It’s so worth it for the price. Great app! 🌟💫

Amazing app

I love this app and how it’s a one time purchase!

iOS 27 - apple pencil doesn’t work now

Opacity and size sliders do not work as they did previously. 100% size creates no visible mark on the page. Previously, this was a great app. Hopefully this will be an easy fix.

BEST ART APP EVER

Ive tried so many different art apps and when i switched ti ipad last year i was a bit spectical beacuse its paid but it has changed how ive drawn ever

The perfect app

It really does it all if you explore enough, the brushes and ability to not only create but import sets is brilliant and simple

Animation is major bonus
Pixel art is even possible

AMAIZING

I have used this since 2 years ago and I use it ALOT. I have started animaiting with this app. This has improved my skills and creativity which dogs >:D. I love this app, and will never stop using it.

I found a bug

5 stars it’s the best thing ever but for some reason no brush would follow my finger or Apple Pencil correctly it would create a straight line I could tilt that’s it.

New update sucks

The new update makes the Apple Pencil 2 useless and no longer records pressure data, works everywhere else on the screen so the pencil isn’t the issue…please fix

Was amazing until the iOS update

After my iPad updated, the app is basically unusable with my Apple Pencil. And it somehow deleted all of my files, which I had backed up but I can’t get them back. It was an amazing drawing app, but now it’s unusable.

Almost perfect

Two things I want to see:

1) posterise filter (allowing me to adjust number of levels and thresholds)

2) This is the big one.

I would like to see ‘auto flatting’, I.e. given a layer of line art, it should:

a) Apply a threshold to remove feathering, making a new layer that is two tone only (to be deleted after the next stage). Then using that layer
b) create a new layer with each area defined by the line art assigned a random colour - importantly, the regions should expand until touching (no gap due to the line).

The end result would be the original line art, plus a layer of colour underneath.

This is really useful for comic style art, as you generate the line art, then you can easily drag and drop solid colours onto the flatting layer.

At the moment you can flat, but by painting manually, or using a reference fill (which sometimes gives issues if line art feathered)

Whatever you do, don’t uninstall the app.

My app was bugging out and I had no choice but to uninstall, thinking my art was backed up. Unfortunately I was mistaken, I lost all my art and have no way to restore it. You pay $13 for an app that can’t even store your artwork.

favorite drawing app

i rlly love using this app i wish it had an android version!!

Really good but INFURIATING!

It’s a really great app ive done so many good drawings,bur I have a pen that i use sometimes to draw and on its clicker it has a soft bit that’s used to press buttons on phones and stuff but whenever I use it UGHHHHH it just deletes everything it’s so annoying,never rest ur hand on ur screen cuz it all deletes.Otherwise it’s peek and worth $13 I guess but only if u use an Apple Pencil otherwise it’s pointless x

PLEASE FIX IT - unable to move layers in current version

This is a 5 stars drawing app, have been using it for years BUT, the last update is buggy, I can no longer move layers in the hierarchy making this app really hard to use.

Great but…..

Why are my brush’s saying active why I spent 13$ on this like what??

okay

i used to think since other complex apps are more expensive than it justifies procreates lack of features and quality but no. it crashes rarely but glitches quite often for me such as merging a layer and then all the layers open for no reason. no organization other than stacks and its tiring to drag and hold, drag and hold. i have a lot of artwork and i have to constantly scroll. funny that you can name a canvas but not search for it. there's no recently open either. they dont have a draw a fill tool in one. what else.. oh yeah they also dont have accounts to back up your stuff so if you dont backup the entire ipad youre cooked! and backing up an ipad literally takes forever. and to be honest 10 dollars isnt even the whole price what youre paying for it $110+ because you need a genuine apple pencil to actually draw with pen pressure.
