User reviews

2025 and iPad version “sketchy.”

Cannot delete photo from gallery. Cannot share or print from Gallery. Line drawing from photo decent, though. Will try taking screenshot and going from there. Hope improvements coming because other apps perform better at least on iPad.

Only accesses some of my photos

Not the ones I want. I deleted and reloaded the app. It didn’t help. Buggy. Apparently I am not the only one with this problem. Won’t be using this app.

Won’t open photos

I gave permission to access my photos, but it won’t open.

Thanks for the update

I love this app and was disappointed when it no longer worked on my iPad, but the developers have now updated it and I am a happy camper,

Response from developer

Zeppy Z, thanks for your feedback! I'm happy to let you know an update of uSketch is now available. It works on the newest iPhones, iPads and iOS versions and has a modern, refreshed interface. Please give it a try!

Easy to use

Nice way to do headshots if photos are not your preferred option but still need to have your face in there (ie I used it for my profile image on Skype & Linked In)
