I've been a part of the Sketch community for a very long time. It was one of the things that helped me get comfortable with drawing. When the old app went down I was absolutely crushed. A community I had been in for so long just got destroyed with little warning. That was why I had so much hope for this app. The posting features are great, but it still doesn't feel like Sketch. It's missing the drawing tool. I had the app for a while when it first came out, but uninstalled after a bit. It wasn't the same without the drawing features. Im hoping that is in development. It also greatly needs the collaboration feature back. That was how a lot of artists like me get started. It helped us build our confidence with bases and art critiqing. Without the ability to collaborate on art and the drawing tool, this app just doesn't feel like Sony Sketch. I hope you'll take this into consideration.

I was (and still am) a huge fan of Sony Sketch. When I heard that the mobile division of Sony wasn’t doing well I began to worry. At the end the inevitable happened: Sketch was removed.I’m glad to see that the developers are still trying to keep Sketch alive. I love the community feature. I really missed it! And I’m glad that it’s back! But I wish I could also create my art from within the app. I like to share my art, but I’m not very good with professional drawing apps. What made the old Sketch appealing was how it was a two in one app. It was a simple and accessible drawing and photo editing app and a community. I’m going to hang on for a while because I’m a big fan of Sketch. I hope that one day we get a drawing tool like the original one. Something as fun, inviting and easy like the old Sketch. Something that makes me wanna draw all day long! (with lots of wacky brushes please) I really miss that.

- slides (multiple pics in one post)- more groups (like diy and photography)- make app less plain and boring- add challenges and artist of the week and stuff like that (or maybe post of the day)- enforce age restrictions - when I block someone, I still see their posts, so try to fix that (in the latest posts section)- add an in-app drawing program- move the bio and make it automatically visible so ppl actually read it- advertise this app bc it’s low key dead - fix bugs and lag- have a place where u can directly link other socials (different than the bio)- make the community more safe- have a visible place to put why the post is a sensitive post (not the title or description)- donations (FOR THIS APP so it don’t go bankrupt like others)- public chats (and the option to create one urself)- have the description not show when a post is put as sensitive but doesn’t have photo- have the background be everyone (like behind ur posts and stuff)- add videos (and speed paint/timelapse’s group)

This add is a nice space for beginner artists, everyone’s so nice and supportive on here and the community is great overall. BUT the app feels very isolated, like nothing new is ever going on, barely anyone new joins the add, we never get new updates and it always feels really dead once in a while, and the servers always go down with out Warning and the Devs/mods never tell us or give us updates on there other platforms. The app also tends to kick me out when trying to post and me and almost everyone always never get notified when we get a comment or dm, even though we have our notifications on. This bug has been going on since the app got released and never got fixed like what?!?
