So if you’re a professional go find another app I guess. This app doesn’t have a copy and paste or flip button which was very annoying because I usually want to do that with eyes or arms or legs so I’m hoping they have that. It’s also free which is really nice. So it’s basically a normal art app but simplified. ### 3/5 — Eh *2026-09-02, version 36.8* It’s a very good app but EVERYTHING costs money ### 4/5 — Drawing *2026-08-29, version 36.8* I really like this app it help encourages people to draw and if you wanted for other people to see your drawing you can just take a screenshot of it bye ### 3/5 — Not worth it *2026-08-28, version 36.8* At first I was hooked with the minimal and clean look this app has, it definitely can satisfies people with a knack for that traditional feel on a digital device. But the default brushes are a bit lacklustre, and there come this HUGE bug I just encountered: If you undo with the 2-finger tap too fast too many times, it erases everything on my current layer, even redo-ing can’t bring them back 😭. Even if this bug is fixed in the future, I don’t think I will still come back to this app. There are many small things here and there that just aren’t pleasant to use, but it would be too long to write it all out, so my ADVICE is: DO NOT subscribe to this thing right away, use the free trial to make a finish art piece and see if you are willing to put up with some minor pet peeves that come with it lol. p/s: subscriptions are greedy and this thing definitely isn’t good enough to charge people that much money, period. ### 4/5 — Really good *2026-08-28, version 36.8* I reacently got this new app and it was the awnser to all my problems. The money is a lot though maybe take it a bit down. That is all from me, 4 stars! ### 5/5 — Never mind *2026-08-27, version 36.8* My subscription appears to be reinstated. THANK YOU ### 2/5 — Good and bad *2026-08-25, version 36.8* I love the materials it has but the thing is that I can’t do other drawings. They have to deal with the same one. ### 5/5 — It’s good *2026-08-24, version 36.8* You have to pay for most of it like most of the brushes but still, it’s really good app ### 4/5 — Just *2026-08-22, version 36.8* I love this app everything is fine but when I get into the app it lags a lot and glitches and I don’t know why so yeah thx for reading ### 4/5 — It’s good *2026-08-22, version 36.8* You have to pay for most of it like most of the brushes ### 3/5 — You have to pay for everything *2026-08-21, version 36.8* You have to pay to change the size of the tool and you have to pay to use some of the other tools it is really go for everything think you do not have to pay ### 5/5 — Wow *2026-08-21, version 36.8* Its very good ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — ..& -- -Lee *2026-09-07, version 36.8* Sve ### 1/5 — It is a Scam *2026-09-05, version 36.8* You have to pay for each week 3.99 and for a year 69.99 ### 1/5 — nowhere near as good as it used to be *2026-09-04, version 36.8* ive been using this app for years (since around 2017), and now it is very confusing to use whereas before everything was straightforward and very accessible. it’s just not the same ### 1/5 — Not free *2026-08-31, version 36.8* Cannot use without paying ### 1/5 — DO NOT BUY!! *2026-08-24, version 36.8* This recent update genuinely takes the piss, i paid 7+ dollars for the whole premium plan forever when the app was free!! I was using this app for YEARS as my main art making platform, mind you, AND NOW WE HAVE STUFF LOCKED BEHIND PAYWALLS AND PREMIUM PLANS??? Yeah no, this BLOWS, your owners are greedy beyond belief. ### 1/5 — sucks now tbh *2026-08-23, version 36.8* i paid for this app multiple years ago and it is now asking for a subscription. stupid price. don’t start asking for a subscription after making someone pay for an app. ### 1/5 — I DONT RECOMMEND.❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️❗️ *2026-08-20, version 36.8* You can only use a few brushes unless you pay, like WHAT 😭💔 ### 1/5 — $69 a year vs $15 for Proceate? *2026-08-19, version 36.8* This app started asking for $69 a year subscription, where Procreate costs one time payment of $15. Not to speak how much better Proceate and Procreate Pocket is compared to Sketches. So I’m really not sure what prompted the developer to ask for so much money. ### 1/5 — They steal *2026-08-17, version 36.8* I purchased this App years ago. As time went on, they changed the terms, and gradually (at first) made it more difficult to use the App by requiring the user to either pay for additional services/capabilities or reject the offer. Eventually, they denied access. Don’t do business with companies that take money and then change the deal. ### 1/5 — This SUCKS *2026-08-17, version 36.8* There’s not much to do I’m confused with the stuff are and it keeps kicking me out DON’T GET THIS ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Good app *2026-09-07, version 36.8* I really like this app and you should try it too ### 5/5 — It’s great *2026-09-06, version 36.8* It’s easier than procreate and kid proof ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-09-06, version 36.8* It made drawing feel sooo fun ### 5/5 — procreate *2026-09-05, version 36.8* The bestt t ### 5/5 — great *2026-09-03, version 36.8* super satisfying especially with the ruler and its so good already even without the subscription. Who would imagine it with the subscription ### 5/5 — Great tool and fun for my kids *2026-09-01, version 36.8* Ive used this programme for years, for work, photo editing, art, and design. And my kids use it to scribble and paint and have fun.. it’s intuitive and simple for all ages.. of course it continues to improve also.. ### 5/5 — Anonymous *2026-08-30, version 36.8* It is wonderful, many tools make much progress.
