Eh ok

Sometimes this drawing/sketch pad is awesome and works really well and other times it sucks. When I am drawing the pencil does not stay the same thickness. It gets really annoying. I will have to move my hands in a weird position just for the thickness to stay consistent. Then sometimes when I try to just move the picture a random line goes across my drawing that I have to undo after I am done turning. With the thickness issue and the issue when turning my work causes me to hit the undo button a lot which gets really annoying. But when it isn’t doing that I am able to draw great pictures.

a bug bug in the game and it’s MAKING ME CRASH OUY

i can’t draw bcuase it vanishes i crashout 😡😡👿👿🗯️🗯️🤬🤬😡😤😖😖😖

OMG

5 stars. This needs an oscar. This is the BEST drawing app ever. Pls upgrade it a little for better quality like being able to get more pages in one sketch page bc my sister complains about that 24/7

Would be a 5 if ONE PROBLEM was solved

I like this app, currently looking for something like IbisPaint X or Procreate for free, and yes, I found this, but the one problem: (not sure if it’s just my iPad, but) when I draw, there’s a slight delay in my finger (yes im a finger artist) and the actual drawing appearing on the iPad. Please check this out, and is anyone else getting this problem?

Really good, but…

Been using sketchbook for like 5 years, and haven’t had any issues for the most part. Could use some more features though, like lasso stabilization and allowing clipping masks onto folders (it only allows individual layers atm).

I don’t usually write reviews, but…

This app had been working perfectly fine, up until this past week. Every time I open the app, instead of seeing my saved drawing(s), being able to use the tools, or being able to open the main menu, I only see a blank canvas and cannot draw or view any of the tools. The Tool Bar is visible, I am able to click on a few buttons, but nothing opens. That is all the app is allowing.

I hit the undo button a bunch of times. Nothing. I click on layers. Nothing, but the blank canvas and Tool Bar. I click on the Color Wheel. It doesn’t pop up. Same thing with everything else!

I have tried pressing down on the canvas for the shortcut that usually annoys me. It’s usually pops up way too easily when I draw, my finger usually slips, and I am usually left using a tool or a color I don’t remember choosing on purpose. Not this time. It did not work.

What do I do? I have no idea how this even happened in the first place.

Excellent

Just need support to keyboard shortcuts

Nice app

Before I had no drawing paper but now I do

I love it but just a few problems

Ok everytime I use the pencil and the pen while I am drawing it just stops working and when I was using the pencil it draws like tiny dots and the pen won't let me use the color I want to use with it but after all this is really fun so 4 stars.

Not optimised for duo

Surprised this app hasn’t been optimised for the Duo now there’s Apple Pencil support. Disappointing.

Animation

It’s really cool but I wish I could animate on this app and it would be cool if I could add music if you end up adding animation

LOVE IT

I USE THIS APP ALL THE TIME ITS INCREDIBLE AND EASYYY NO BETTER DRAWING APP <3

Myself as a gamer :)

Art a choice gaming too :)

Best I've used

The interface is so easy to navigate. The tools' positions feels completely natural and I never forget where anything is. It's completely free and has no ads but the premium is STILL a good purchase. 5/5 drawing program. Would be cool if there was some way to animate in sketchbook though...

I love it!

I use this app to color pics i find on the internet, you don’t need premium to use almost every brush (ibs paint cough cough), it doesn’t scream the premium features down your throat either, and no ads! It’s very simple and easy to use. I use this on my iPad all the time! Thank you for creating such a wonderful app! (I use an Apple Pencil which is not required obviously but it will add to your experience!!)

too many glitches

when i tried making a circle with draw styles it wouldn’t make the circle and also when i tried reversing a mistake it didn’t work and it changed nothing this is just horrible the tools barely even work

THE BEST DRAWING APP EVER 🥳🥳

This is the best app I ever downloaded on my phone 📱 thanks so much who ever made this app its so good 😊 I can mix colors and so many tools to use 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥰🥰🥰

No ads

This is actually so good! I honestly use it almost every day. There’s layers and great coloring textures and pens, and even better, there’s NO ADS!!! Absolutely none. Honest! Not even banner ads. It also saves your artwork every time you draw on it. All in all, I recommend it to every single artist who is bored.
