I've been searching for a program like this for ages! So far, I've been really enjoying its current capabilities, as its brushes, your control over the line animation, and power of its current tools is quite impressive. There is definitely a lot of room for improvement, however, especially when it comes to overall frame rate control, export options and export customization, the layer system (it feels very basic/bare bones currently), and potentially optimization (my iPad began to heat up bad by the time I got further into coloring, and I've been keeping to simple artworks so far) to name a few examples, but I have really high hopes for this program as it really nails the boiling line effects in such an organic manner. I was happy to support the developers by purchasing the lifetime Pro, and I am very excited to see what future updates and ambitions this app will have! I am very pleasantly surprised and hope more find it and try this out!
Personal Experience with Free Version: Good to Doodle in, yet a few issues
Ms. Lady Zora
So far, it's pretty fun to just doodle in. The options to customize the animated pens available are pretty good. I do like that I can favorite brushes I like to I can find them. Pretty simple and easy to use. Now, I noticed that the app can lag a little which causes the brush to leave ink blots. Sometimes the pen pressure gets a bit inconsistent leaving my strokes light and scattered until I press a little harder. Nothing too bad, but just a few things I noticed. Coming from using other Art Apps, it would be nice to merge layers and change the size of a canvas. Otherwise I'm happy to stick around to see future updates!
I have hope

Okay, currently the app is like 2 star material- I can’t add any layers or change the color for some reason? There also isn’t a variety of brushes (premium or free, there’s barely anything). However, I have serious hope for the app since it is pretty fresh out of the oven at the time of writing this. I’ll come back in a couple updates but for now I’m dropping a “I hope it lives up to the potential I see in it” four star cause in its niche it seems really good. I’d say more brushes, ability to add layers, ability to change colors and a transform tool and it’d be perfect.
Really fun!!

It is really great by itself, and it’s so fun. I love to make art on a separate drawing app and transfer it to a canvas on here, then make doodles using the different brushes on here. It gives my art more life!However it’s not 5 stars for now just because it has some issues with brushes and lag, and there could be a lot more with this app, such as more brushes and features. But i’m sure that will come later and it’s not a big deal anyway!Besides that, it’s great and i’ll absolutely keep using it! :-)
What's new in 1.1
• New Frame Echo brush (Pro): every stroke is redrawn three times with a slight offset, like stacked frames of a hand-drawn animation.
• Adjustable stabilization on every brush, 0 to 100%, remembered per brush.
• Instant opening: the canvas no longer freezes the screen on first launch, even on older devices.
• Much smoother: drawings full of animated strokes stay at 60 frames per second, eraser included.
• Lower memory use on iPads and phones with 3 GB or less.
• Your canvases show up in the explorer right away, with their preview, even when you leave right after a stroke.
• Redesigned interface: bigger toolbars on tablet, sliders and undo/redo on phone, a button to hide the whole interface, and the create button at the bottom of the explorer on phone.
• Apple Pencil only: fingers no longer draw when the option is on.
• Image import: transparent PNGs keep their transparency, and the image lands on its own layer, above everything.
• New: save exports to the gallery, export progress indicator, duplicate a canvas with a long press, and a redesigned explorer.
