Quiet tools. The toolbar has folded itself away into a small ring in the corner — tap it and your tools fan out along an arc; tap anywhere else and they slip out of sight, leaving the whole screen to the paint. The fan dresses to match your paper in light or dark, and answers each tap with a firmer haptic tick. Also in this update: shuffled palettes won't deal you the same colours twice in a row, saving to Photos keeps up even when you're quick on the trigger, and drying paint lets the canvas doze off sooner, a little kinder to your battery.

InkPunk 1.6 – turn the sound on. InkPunk makes noise now. Every pigment has its own note, your mixes land in between, and smearing paint sings the colour under your finger — with haptics to match. Make it yours in Settings: toggle sound or haptics, or shift the whole palette up and down octaves. Truer smears. Dragging paint now picks up only what you actually drag through — no more stray colour sneaking into your mix. No two starts alike. Hit reset and the wells scatter into a fresh layout with a new palette, then pour back onto the canvas. Richer mixing. Black and white pull their weight, so your tints and shades read the way you'd expect. Now go vandalise something.

Smoother painting, punchier splatters, and a couple of glitches squashed. • Easier on your battery: the canvas now rests when nothing's moving. • Shake harder, splatter bigger: bursts match the force of your shake. • Flicks from the wells arc cleanly across the canvas. • Fixed a rippled smudge under two-finger flicks, and a stray streak that trailed from your last spot into a new stroke. • Saving now confirms when your art lands in Photos, and re-centering tilt tells you you're level. Thanks for painting with InkPunk!

This update delivers a full paint-physics overhaul. • Splatter — shake your iPhone, or flick two fingers on any device, to fling paint across the canvas. Droplets fly through the air and land where they splat. • Runs & drips — tilt the device to send wet paint streaming down the canvas, mixing as it flows; wells dribble and trail as you work. • Richer mixing — colours build and blend more smoothly and truer, with a wetter, more tactile feel. • Performance and stability fixes throughout. Still 99p until 22 June as a launch treat, then £2.99. Now go make a mess.
