Thank you Tomato ### 1/5 — Not worth paying for *2018-12-04, version 2.718928* No control whatever on drawing. If you’re happy enough tapping a screen to see what happens - go ahead, if you want to do something deliberately- don’t bother. Waiting for the invoice to claim the refund... ### 1/5 — Crashes when trying to save image *2017-12-17, version 2.718923* Crashes everytime since last update. iOS 10 ### 1/5 — Dissatisfied unfortunately *2017-08-13, version 2.718291* I have the other Silk and love it.

This is great for those that struggle with anxiety or stress. Trust me this is one of the best purchases you’ll ever make. So thank you all developers for making Silk 2 - Generative Art. ### 5/5 — Pretty good! *2026-06-12, version 2.0.23* You can change the brush settings at the top right which is really cool and useful for your drawings. There’s straight ➖➖➖, wiggly 〰️〰️〰️, cloud / watercolor ➿➿➿, and you can even make the straight and wiggly lines have cloud / watercolor, too! But there’s more. You can choose patterns in the bottom left corner as well! There’s so many to choose from. You can have mirrored lines or one line, and even complex geometric like shapes. There are many different colors, as well. White, black, rainbow, or single colors too. You can mix the colors to make it fade from the two. I rate this one 10 stars out of 5, but unfortunately I can only put five :] ### 5/5 — Gorgeous and captivating! *2026-04-24, version 2.0.23* I’ve had this app on my phone for many, many years. I just came across it again while organizing some apps. Each time I rediscover it, I end up spending a lot of time with it and always come away noticeably calm and satiated. It’s meditative, relaxing, beautiful art anyone can enjoy with a single finger. You don’t need to be an artist. In fact, I expect not being an artist is probably beneficial; you will be amazed! Great job, keep it up! ### 5/5 — Nice *2026-04-22, version 2.0.23* Simple to use and enjoy. ### 5/5 — Wow *2026-03-15, version 2.0.23* The skills are amazing and so beautiful and pretty I love it ### 5/5 — The best *2026-02-28, version 2.0.23* I do not like any people that say that this game is trash because i loved it.😀👌🏻🫶 ### 5/5 — just so great!! *2026-02-24, version 2.0.23* so this is an app that keeps me occupied especially when I’m sick. other than that, I have no idea how to put my love for this app in words. I saw another review say the same thing and I agree. it’s such a great app that if I had to choose if this app had a job, it would be a model. also, it also creates an opportunity for me too, share my artwork with my friends without having to take a photo and send it. I can just tap the share button! thank you!! I hope this helps!!!! ### 5/5 — Excellent Drawing and relaxing tool *2026-02-02, version 2.0.23* Easy to express one’s artistic skills and inspiration. Many thanks ### 5/5 — Calming and beautiful *2026-01-07, version 2.0.23* I am not joking when I say this app is the most calming and beautiful app in existence don’t get me started on the music either and the way I discovered this actually wasn’t through the App Store or through an ad or anything actually in the school we were allowed to play this on a website which was free and then I started playing the app and I love it 10 out of 10 five out of five whatever you wanna say it is the most calming and beautiful lap in existence and for only three dollars, I mean it’s worth it ### 5/5 — GET THIS *2025-12-15, version 2.0.23* This is so good and relaxing --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
