## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — This app is useless, it’s either updated or take it off the App Store

*2024-07-04*

This app always crashes when I’m trying to generate and it won’t generate costume designs that I want to make or portrait of characters as real people and I am a very artistic person so if you don’t fix this, you have to pull it off the App Store because with 3.7 stars, that is not good. You have to do something about that.

### 1/5 — Crashed iOS

*2024-05-03*

Does not work at all on my iPhone 13. First the app crashed. I opened it and tried it again. It said "loading" for several minutes and then my phone rebooted.

### 1/5 — The Ads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*2023-01-05, version 1.0.27*

I tried for nearly 10 minutes to generate n image but never got that far. Just do every time I hit generate. A complete waste of time.

### 1/5 — Don’t buy! It just doesn’t work on iPhone

*2022-12-26*

I’ve bought the app but it just doesn’t start on iPhone 13 Pro Max

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2022-08-08*

I got this game thinking it would be good but the screen just keeps loading. It wouldn’t let me do anything except Watch the screen load. Ps I am using a iPhone 6. Pls don’t get this game.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2022-04-27*

You can draw stuff according to the labels the app gives colors but it turns into completely random stuff. Don’t bother

### 1/5 — From Bad to f'ing rip off

*2021-06-13, version 1.0.13*

This AH dev added a subscription so you can get the colours I had already paid the premium upfront price for in the previous non working pos version. And he ads them AFTER purchase.
Total scammer. Stay away from this stank.

### 1/5 — Not Generating. Just Canceled My Subscription

*2021-06-04*

Just canceled my subscription. Still have it for a year. Since the recent update, it freezes on “Generate”.
Not asking for a refund, but please update!
(And replace the useless opacity slider with “Upload Segmentation Map”)

### 1/5 — Drea

*2021-03-29*

The app does not load: the star cursor keeps turning, nothing is loaded. I am using  iPhone 12 Pro and iPad 6th generation.
I tried the app again after completely removing and installing again. I am using IPhone pro 12 and latest iOS 14.4.1 
Did you upgrade the app to work with new iOS ?

### 1/5 — Bad app

*2021-01-02*

Crashes a lot and doesn’t work well

### 5/5 — Very nice and runs on device!

*2024-10-24*

I've been using SmartPen for a few weeks now, and it’s been a game-changer for my digital art. The scribble-to-image feature is incredibly intuitive—I can start with just a rough outline, and the AI turns it into something beautiful. The drawing interface feels like I'm using real paper, which makes sketching a joy.  I love how I can customize my creations with text prompts, adding details and styles that match my vision. It's really impressive how my initial ideas evolve into complex artworks with just a few tweaks. Whether you’re a beginner or an experienced artist, SmartPen makes the creative process fun and rewarding. I highly recommend it!

### 5/5 — Really recommend!!!

*2024-10-23*

This app merges intuitive sketching with powerful AI, turning simple doodles into stunning visuals effortlessly.  The scribble-to-image generation feature is fantastic, allowing my basic outlines to evolve into captivating artwork. The drawing interface feels natural, making it easy to adjust line weights and colors.  What truly stands out is the AI-powered refinement, which elevates my sketches into intricate pieces. The ability to customize with descriptive prompts adds endless creative possibilities.  Overall, SmartPen is a must-have for artists of all levels, encouraging exploration and enhancing creativity. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Incredible Digital Art Game

*2024-04-12*

As a digital artist. SmartPen caught my eye, and after giving it a whirl, I'm impressed.

The Scribble-to-Image Generation feature is a game-changer. It took my rough sketches and turned them into polished pieces in no time. Plus, the interface is super intuitive – it felt like I was drawing on paper, not a screen.

SmartPen's AI refinement is pretty cool too. It smoothed out my lines and added depth to my work without me having to lift a finger.

Overall, SmartPen has earned its spot in my digital art toolkit.

### 5/5 — Very Impressive Results!!!

*2024-04-02*

As someone who's always enjoyed doodling but never considered myself much of an artist, I was blown away by what SmartPen can do. Seriously, this app is like magic!

I downloaded SmartPen out of curiosity, expecting it to be just another drawing app. But oh boy, was I wrong! The moment I started scribbling, I could see my doodles transforming into beautiful works of art right before my eyes.

The AI technology behind SmartPen is simply mind-blowing. It's like having a virtual art teacher guiding you through every stroke, helping you create stunning compositions effortlessly. And the stable diffusion feature? It makes everything look so smooth and professional, even if you're just drawing random shapes.

### 5/5 — Best art app ever

*2022-04-28, version 1.0.21*

This is my first experience making digital art, and I've not had any issues. The fact that they offer numerous brushes and that you can also create your own made me feel at ease using it from the beginning. It was extremely simple to use and user-friendly and I quickly learned how make use of it. A side note I'm not sure whether this is the case for everyone, but when my iPad crashed was crashing and had to turn it down (this was not the blame on the app, it was purely my ipad) it was able to save my work.

### 5/5 — This app is very good

*2022-04-28, version 1.0.21*

The best mobile digital art software I've tried. It includes all the basic tools I'd require on a desktop. The UI is extremely user-friendly. The tutorial is not overly intrusive and clear. The advertisements on Free version of the app are simple to work with. We highly suggest SmartPen to anyone wishing to create digital art using your mobile.

### 5/5 — Finally i become digital artist

*2022-04-28*

This is an absolutely stunning drawing and editing application! I had an awful one, but then I saw someone using it and after I downloaded it, I was in the love. I highly recommend this program for those who enjoy digital art or only for beginners. The one thing that isn't a problem however, I would prefer perhaps you didn't need to view an advertisement to purchase specific brushes, but I'll not take a star off for this. In any case, I think this is the most effective drawing and editing application I've ever used. 5 stars!

### 2/5 — Crashed iOS

*2024-04-20*

On my iPhone 13, I tried to generate something. First the app crashed. I opened it and tried it again. It said "loading" for several minutes and then my phone rebooted.

### 2/5 — Bad app

*2022-08-10*

I have an iPhone 12 Pro and it doesn’t work for me at all
