About

SpinCanvas

Read full description

SpinCanvas is a painting app where you lay color onto a spinning disc, like a pottery wheel. Touch the disc while it spins, and even a still finger draws rings and arcs as the disc turns beneath it. Move your finger to make spirals. Turn on symmetry mode and you get kaleidoscope-like patterns. You don't have to try to draw well. Just touch, and it becomes art. WHY YOU'LL LOVE IT • Relax and let your hand move without thinking • Create geometric and mandala-style designs in seconds • Draw together with kids • Make your own profile icon or phone wallpaper DRAW • Just touch the disc. Hold still for rings, move for spirals • Pause the disc to draw carefully while it's still • Symmetry mode mirrors every stroke into 2–12 segments • Eraser turns painted areas transparent again • Undo removes your last stroke COLORS • Six palettes: Standard, Japanese, Pastel, Neon, Monochrome, and Earth • Create any color with the color picker • Recently used colors are kept automatically BRUSHES • Round, Soft, Spray, Dry, Square, and Star • A "Speed" brush that gets thinner the faster the disc spins • Adjustable size and opacity DISC • Rotation speed and reverse rotation • Base color: white, black, any color, or a transparency checker • Wood and ceramic textures • Concentric, radial, and grid guide lines EXPORT • Save as PNG to Photos or share directly • High-resolution export at 2K, 4K, or wallpaper size • Transparent, white, black, or custom backgrounds • Choose whether to include the disc base SPINCANVAS PRO One purchase unlocks every feature forever.
