Paintrix: Digital Painting
Drawing, Sketch, Manga, Art
Free · In‑App Purchases
Paint with 60 brushes, create manga and watercolors, and draw together live. Your studio for iPad and iPhone, with layers, symmetry, and timelapse.
Paint like you're in a real studio, on the iPad or iPhone you already own. Paintrix Studio is a full digital painting app with 60 brushes, unlimited layers, gradients, paintable materials and live drawing with a friend. Every tool is free to use.
Everything runs on the GPU through Apple's Metal, so brushes, filters and effects stay smooth even on big canvases.
BRUSHES THAT FEEL LIKE PAINT
• 60 brushes in nine families: Oil Paints, Manga, Watercolor, Pencils, Charcoals, Pens, Spraypaint, Basic and Water Brushes
• Oil brushes leave raised impasto and bristle grooves, and blend into the paint already on the canvas
• Apple Pencil pressure, tilt and hover, plus squeeze to undo on Apple Pencil Pro
LAYERS YOU CAN KEEP CHANGING
• Unlimited layers with clipping masks and alpha lock
• Live, always-editable adjustments: brightness, contrast, hue, saturation, vibrance, temperature, bloom and shadows
COLOR, GRADIENTS AND MATERIALS
• Build palettes by hand or generate one from any photo
• Import .swatches palette files with every color intact
• Linear, radial and angular gradients that follow your brush
• 14 materials, including gold, marble, mahogany and halftone, that paint real texture and shading
DRAW TOGETHER, LIVE
Invite a friend with a six-character code or a link and paint on the same canvas at the same time. You see their cursor and strokes as they happen, layers sync between you, and you both keep a copy when you're done. No accounts needed.
TOOLS FOR EVERY STYLE
• Mirror mode with vertical, horizontal, quadrant and radial symmetry
• Quick Shapes: hold at the end of a stroke to snap it into a clean shape
• Smudge, Pinch, Bubble and Liquid Mode to push paint around
• Magic selection, lasso and shape selections, plus a clone stamp
• Visual history panel to jump back to any step
SHARE YOUR PROCESS
• A timelapse records every painting automatically. Export it as a video in a tap
• Export PNG or JPEG at any PPI
• Back up full layered projects to iCloud Drive
ONE APP, BOTH DEVICES
Paintrix Studio runs on iPad and iPhone with the same features. The layout adapts to each screen, and one subscription covers every device on your Apple Account.
FREE TO START
Download free and use every brush, layer, tool and export with no limits. Paintrix Pro, an optional monthly subscription, unlocks one thing: reopening projects you saved earlier.
Payment is charged to your Apple Account. The subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Manage or cancel it any time in your Apple Account settings.
