Thank you so much! We're really glad you're enjoying the app.

Good

Super good once you start tracing and the drawings turned out amazing, until the subscription came up, £4.49 a month, but i am going to either pay it or delete the app. Overall if you have premium its amazing.

Response from developer

Thanks for the review! We are really glad you're enjoying the tracing experience and the results. Just to clarify, a subscription isn't required to use the app. You can create unlimited projects for free. Premium simply unlocks additional features such as all drawing tutorials, AR tracing mode, and other advanced tools. We appreciate your feedback, and we hope you continue enjoying the app whether you choose the free version or Premium.

Excellent app to learn how to sketch

This is a great app if you’re just learning how to draw as it helps develop the muscle memory necessary to draw, and it improves upon your spatial recognition so that your hand is forced to sync with your eyes and vice versa, helping you to be more accurate when you are placing an image on paper that you are seeing with your eyes.
If you’re a self-learner, I highly recommend giving this app a shot.
Be patient and allow yourself to make the necessary connections between your hand and your eyes. It doesn’t happen overnight, but if you’ll be patient, it will get easier each time you do it, and your drawing will inevitably improve.
We’re not all Picasso’s, but we can all improve.
I’m lucky, if it wasn’t for my total lack of natural ability and absence of talent, it’s quite possible I could be one of the greats.
