This app is very good my experience is so good ,it does indeed take a lot of storage compared to other drawing apps but that is not a problem for me i have enough storage on my ipad there could be more brushes to download or more live brushes but except for that its very smooth and has a lot of features you can use totally for free so 5 stars for me
Battery usage
MikeyTheDair
Really good for drawing on iPad but recently for around 2-3 weeks i've been having trouble with battery consumption while using the app. Even when turned off but in the recent apps it taps the battery rapidly. I have to charge my iPad 2-3 times a day since i've been using it only to draw. I turned off background app refreshing and all the stuff reccomended to keep the battery usage low on iPads but it didn't resolve the issue. This needs to be fixed, i can't function like this for long or i'll fry my iPad
Great 👍
Labubu girlieeee
I would like if you put a feature that you can merge layers together but everything else is great thanks 👍
What is wrong with the storage?
magda465
Lately, I have been having difficulties with this app. It requires more and more storage room and even though I have deleted some files on my iPad, the app asks for even more storage (mind that I have not been able to use it, therefore it cannot be my fault). I tried reinstalling but the only difference that made is that I have lost all my work. Shame.
ELEMENTS PANEL UPDATES: The Elements panel includes three new categories, Plastic, Shadows, and Water, with all new elements to explore.
POSE IMPROVEMENTS: Posing now feels more precise and intuitive. You can now toggle anchoring on or off, giving strokes and objects complete freedom to move across the canvas.
