The team who designed/ is designing Fresco — thank you! This is one of those products that lives on my heart. I dare say I like this better than Procreate.1. The vector brush feature is a GAME CHANGER. I haven’t seen any other app that has this feature (that’s free and easy to use). 2. Live Brushes too, they’re just SO MUCH FUN to work with and I love experimenting with them. That tactile and reactive feels that comes with it is so satisfying.3. It’s free, which means it’s accessible to anyone with a tablet. As a person who started using this since high school, when I wasn’t earning by myself but just loved to immerse myself in creative activities on my iPad, I really respected that.4. They’ve built an ecosystem around drawing into the app itself - very nicely organised tutorials, the live stream (never used this but seems great), discover and learn sections, etc. It’s really inspiring and immersive for creative.A few improvements I would suggest:1. A big one would be allowing to adjust the line/shape points after long holding to snap into a shape - this is very helpful feature I use often in Procreate but is missing from Fresco.2. I find the gestures and intuitiveness of Procreate a touch smother and easier to work with. Eg. the two/ three finger hold to undo/redo multiple steps in a go. The menu items feel more accessible in Procreate, but it’s probably because I’m just more used to it by now.
Best alternative for Procreate

This is the best app you can find for digital art. There are tons of brushes, tools and masks. I use this app to do everything. To draw, make comic strips or even fix photos. If you are just stating with digital art I would totally recommend this app. It’s easy and fun to use. When I first starting using this I lost my mind. It was amazing. There are new feature added everyday so it is even easier to draw.And the best part is, it is completely free. 10/10
Horrible!!

First I open the app it asks me for my Id . I click on “I already have an account “ button a white page comes up and closes on its own.Then I try to create another account. I fill my details click on submit button and it says an error happened try again and now it has sign in page open with the account I tried to create but then I think why to create an account when sign in page has opened so I fill my user Id click on submit button. And now it says you have first tried to create this account from a social Id which is not supported by the app and it says can you please create a password. And then it opens a page which has button named adobe id and really nothing happens on clicking it. I really had great expectations with adobe but I’m stuck in this loop. I have tried thrice and the results are the same . Hope you would fix this issue.
Why in the world would you mess up the UI of the APP?
Idk who to nickname
I’m pretty sure I’m one of the oldest users of the app I was very happy with adobe fresco I would go on to say that it is one of the best drawing apps available on the App Store which got better with each update UNTIL THE MOST RECENT ONE. For some reason you guys decided to put the left hand tool bar on top and now I just have ALOT OF EMPTY AKWARD space in left. The settings in the app interface does not help at all cause you can not shift the toolbar from top back to left. AND ITS been idk how much time I literally can’t find the ruler anywhere in the new update. WORST UI redesign in the history of the apps, I’m having trouble navigating everything. WHY WOULD YOU MESS UP AN APP WHICH WAS LITERALLY PERFECT. Just to mention this is coming from a UI designer.
This update includes bug fixes and performance improvements to make the Fresco experience smoother and more reliable.
