Tools for Procreate 4+

Subscription didn’t carry over….

I still rated 5/5 stars because I do use the app often and I use the brushes consistently as I make stickers as a side job. However I recently upgraded my iPad and the subscription did not carry over to my new device. BUT it is still active on my apple account and I paid the yearly in full… I am very sad I cannot seem to get this resolved as there is no option for restore purchases in the app nor in the App Store as those are the typical steps to getting this type of thing fixed. However, overall the app works well and the brushes offered of are great quality. Hope my situation sorts itself out soon, would love to have my access back.

Underdeveloped App with Identity Crisis

In concept, packaging a set of templates and tools to help the spectrum of diverse Procreate users work more efficiently is great. Unfortunately, everything offered is underdeveloped and overly narrow. Unsaid is that the app is targeting amateur female fashion design and so what’s offered is of limited appeal to just about anybody else. Wanting to be thought of as more than this extremely restrictive niche community, the app suggests it can do everything. But it barely does anything. There is a category called "Interior design" with a whole section for "sofas." "Sofas" offers you one, ONE sofa in a handful of different colors. Everywhere this underdevelopment, is repeated. Nothing else. 99% of the people illustrated in the app are female except for fashion where this is not a single male reference. Again, all fine if this is marketed to 12 year old girls but to describe this as a set of tools for the broad range of Procreate users is delusional. AI Art and sound tools are included but feel duct-taped on to something that started as something else. And really, why make AI art creation part of an app geared towards people who take immense pride creating their *own* art? This app is a poorly executed version of an idea that has great potential with maybe 5% of what it could be getting realized in this incarnation. Hard pass. I canceled my free trial 2 hours after downloading the app.

Not for free users, get something else instead

This app definitely is not for free users. I understand a company needs to make money, but do you really need to pop up a whole page telling you to subscribe every time i want to look at a brush set? This isn’t even an exaggeration. This one choice makes this app a nightmare to navigate. It also becomes a pain because it goes all the way to the top when i exit a brush pack, so i have to scroll all the way back down to get back to where i was. This is definitely is not browsing friendly. It is not worth it for the free brushes they do offer. A lot of them are also locked behind following to their instagram? It just seems like a stretch to me. Sure it isn’t much, but still feels iffy that it tells me i have to follow them on insta to access a free brush.

Brushes for procreate is a much more user friendly experience with a lot of free brushes to download that don’t require an insta follow. If you want to use a free app, skip this one and use something else. Or just look for brushes online. Some of my favorites were from Gumroad or other sites where people can share their brushes.
