EchoDraw 2.0: Your Reference, Anywhere You Draw EchoDraw started as a simple idea — a camera overlay for tracing, no lightbox or projector needed. 2.0 turns it into a fuller toolkit for artists, built around one big addition: AR Mode. AR Mode Instead of tracing on your phone screen, project your reference image directly onto a real surface — a canvas on an easel, a sheet of paper on your desk, even a wall — and draw with your actual materials while the reference stays locked in physical space. Multiple references at once. Pin up to three images around your workspace — a front view and a side view for a portrait, for instance — so you can glance between them without swiping. Real manipulation. Pinch to resize, rotate with two fingers, and drag to reposition — the same gestures you already know from every other app. Mirror check. Flip your reference instantly to spot proportion mistakes your eye has gotten used to — a trick every trained artist uses. Mirror-line guide. Drop a vertical guide line onto a live subject to check symmetry while drawing a portrait or figure from life. Sight-size lock. A classic atelier measuring technique: lock your exact viewing position, and EchoDraw tells you if you've drifted so your proportions stay accurate. Color eyedropper. Tap anything in the real world to sample its exact color — handy for mixing paint to match. Progress photos. Capture your progress straight to your Photos library as you work. Placement that remembers. Save your project and your AR setup is saved with it — walk away from a big canvas and come back days later to find your reference exactly where you left it. Grids, Filters, and Projects New perspective, isometric, and golden ratio grid overlays, alongside the classic grid, to help with proportion and composition. A new image filter panel — adjust brightness and contrast, add blur, convert to grayscale, or pull out edges to simplify a complex reference. Save your tracing sessions as projects and resume any of them later, complete with your reference image, grid, filters, and progress. Idea Generator Stuck on what to draw? Generate a fresh prompt by subject (portrait, animal, nature, still life, fantasy, urban) and difficulty (quick 5-minute sketches up to full rendered studies). Save the ones you like — they stay on your device between sessions. Everything Else A redesigned toolbar, a smoother trial experience, and general stability improvements throughout.
