Drawtopia vs Krokito

Drawtopia teaches kids 4–10 how to REALLY draw — step by step, shape by shape — and they can do it all by themselves. WHY IT'S DIFFERENT Most drawing apps just hand kids a blank canvas. Drawtopia is a teacher. Doodli the pencil draws each step first — a glowing line shows exactly where to go — then your child copies it at their own pace. No reading required, so even pre-readers learn on their own. It's the difference between "I can't draw" and "look what I made!" FREE TO TRY. FAIR TO FAMILIES. Your whole first week, EVERYTHING is unlocked — no account, no card, no ads. After that, Animal Land's 19 lessons, Free Draw and the Daily Doodle stay free forever. Drawtopia Pro unlocks all 21 lands — including ABC, Arabic and Bengali letter tracing — plus every studio, with a 7-day free trial: $2.99/month or $19.99/year, Family Sharing included. Bought Drawtopia when it was a paid app? You keep everything, forever — no subscription needed. WHY PARENTS PICK DRAWTOPIA • A real curriculum: circles → shapes → curves → drawing from memory. • You see the progress: a Skill Map and weekly recap in Parent Corner. • It ends on time: set a daily limit and Doodli gently wraps up the day — no bedtime battles. • Screen time that makes something: every session ends with art your child is proud of. • Private: nothing your child makes ever leaves the device. No ads, ever. HOW KIDS LEARN • 337 step-by-step lessons across 21 themed lands — animals, dinos, space, sea, food, monsters and more. • Doodli reads every step aloud — in English, Spanish, French and Portuguese — and speaks Arabic and Bengali letters in their own language. • Shape Land: 30 one-minute warm-ups — lines, circles, boxes, triangles — the on-ramp before lesson one. • Watch Doodli draw each step first, then draw it yourself at your own pace. • Friendly "why" hints that teach how shapes fit together — not just tracing. • Now You Try: redraw from memory to earn gold stars — proof it stuck. • Pencil Gym warm-ups for steady little hands. GROWS WITH YOUR ARTIST Older kids get the Artist's Studio: proportion, shading, perspective and gesture — plus the real technique challenges art students do. Five Strokes. Sixty Seconds. Blind Contour. Upside Down. The tone grows up with them, so an eight- or nine-year-old isn't handed a toddler's app. MORE THAN LESSONS • Color It In: 142 finished pictures to fill with color — made for the youngest artists, no reading needed. • Imagination Studio: squiggle sparks, silly remixes, invent-a-creature, and a wacky idea spinner — creativity with no wrong answers. • Sticker Book with rare surprise finds and a Daily Doodle streak. • Doodle Party: pass-and-play drawing & guessing for the whole family. • A new drawing challenge every week, the same one for everyone. • Glow mode, rainbow brushes, see-through colors, paint-bucket fill, and Steady Mode for bumpy car rides. • Apple Pencil on iPad: press harder for a thicker line, and rest your hand on the page — Drawtopia tells your palm from your pencil. • Print any lesson (or a whole land) as coloring pages — screen-free drawing on paper. Made with love (and three young testers) by a parent, for parents. ——— Privacy Policy: https://vertexlabsolutions.com/privacy Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Meet Krokito — a cheerful pencil who shows children that every beautiful drawing starts with one simple line. Krokito works differently from typical drawing apps. An animated pencil draws on the screen step by step while a friendly voice explains what is taking shape and what to look at. Your child doesn't trace with a finger on glass — they watch, listen, and draw with their own hand on real paper. That builds observation skills, a confident hand, and imagination — and every drawing is truly theirs, ready for the fridge door. Every lesson leads from simple shapes to a finished picture: big helper circles and ovals first, then the outline, then the details. You can pause the animation at any moment, go back, or replay a step — at the child's pace, not the app's. Who is it for? Children aged 4 and up who love to draw — or are about to discover that they can. No reading required: voice and picture guide everything, so little ones can use it on their own. What's inside: — 40 lessons in 4 categories: animals, faces, landscapes, and objects — a warm-up before drawing: easy ovals, waves, and dot-to-dot lines — voice narration in 8 languages: English, Polish, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, and Dutch — a drawing journal: keep photos of your child's artwork and track their progress A fair deal for parents: — 14 lessons completely free; unlock everything with one small one-time purchase, shared with your family — no subscriptions, no hidden fees — zero ads, zero accounts, zero tracking — all lessons work fully offline: on a plane, on a trip, at grandma's — purchases and settings are tucked away behind a parent gate Grab paper and a pencil — Krokito is ready to draw. The first line is waiting!
