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. ### 1/5 — Only accesses some of my photos *2023-02-06* 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. ### 1/5 — Won’t open photos *2018-11-29* I gave permission to access my photos, but it won’t open. ### 5/5 — Thanks for the update *2018-05-16* 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, **Developer response:** 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! ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2018-05-04, version 3.4* 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) ### 5/5 — Finally updated!!! *2018-04-29* Love this app and really glad it finally got updated!!! **Developer response:** fe3fl3e, thanks for the rating! ### 3/5 — Needs update *2018-01-15* Need update to work again on my iPad Air. Hope you see this and make it happen. Thank you. **Developer response:** brolla1, thanks for your feedback! I'm happy to let you know an update of uSketch is now available. It should work on your iPad Air, as long as you have iOS 10.3 or above. This update contains a modern, refreshed interface so make sure to give it a try and let us know what you think about it! ### 5/5 — Need Update! *2017-06-01* I love this app is so easy to use and have made great projects with it. But I had a warning on my ipad that with the next ios update, it will no longer work!! Please update it!! **Developer response:** Thefalkor, thanks for your feedback! I'm glad you let you know that an update for uSketch is now available. It has the same ease of use that you are used with, but in a new, modern interface. Give it a try and let us know you think! ### 1/5 — Not Worth even being Free *2015-11-21* It’s nearly Thanksgiving 2015. This app is still on v.1.0. You can click on Save but nothing happens except for the fact that the app freezes and doesn’t recover. I’ve tried it on my Macbook and on my iMac. Same result. Both computers are on El Capitan. Thus, I conclude that this app is not designed for El Capitan and that the developer has abandoned it. Sadly, I’m removing it. I’ll pay for an app that functions on the current OS. ### 4/5 — Better than expected *2014-05-06, version 3.3* Having tried other similar apps this, with a suitable photo, does surprisingly well ## Frequently asked questions about uSketch ### What does uSketch do? uSketch is a tool designed to transform your existing photos into sketches.
