Its great! You can create such wonderful works of art! I would've put a 5 star rating BUT it doesn't load my artwork at all, once I'm done a piece and I leave it for a few hours & I go back to look at it again, it won't load at all, the loading circle keeps spinning & spinning but it never loads, when I try to click on the image it says it failed to open & brings me to a blank canvas. I cant save, open or edit my drawings after that so they're pretty much lost :( it won't fix itself either :((

One of the best drawing apps I've used. It has some great simple tools for photo editing and drawing like wise. The app being entirely free now is fantastic as well while already offering all these other tools that other apps would have you pay a subscription for. Amazing. one thing They're missing is a "Fit to Screen" option for when you're importing a photo. It would just save a couple seconds from having to fit the photo to my screen with my fingers.

Prob the best art app I've downloaded. Has a great group of features and tools and comes the closest to Photoshop pocket sized. The one tip I will give is this: when exporting your art to your phone/tablet/robotic racoon, etc. DO NOT change the file name it gives. If you do all manner of horrible stuff occurs, up to and including, deleting your art. Just keep the terrible name untill you migrate the file to another folder or to your computer.
