Lively Art: Save Kids' Art
Keep it all. Bring it to life.
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Your child draws faster than you can find fridge space. Lively Art turns that pile of paper into a memory box you'll actually look at — and lets you watch a favourite drawing come to life.
Keeping their art is free. All of it. Forever.
SCAN A STACK IN SECONDS
Guided scanning finds the edges, straightens the page and crops it for you. Scan five drawings in one go, then recycle the paper without the guilt. Add a title and a date — or just "sometime in 2024", because nobody remembers.
KEEP THEM FOREVER
Each child gets their own gallery. Every drawing is labelled with how old they were when they made it, so you can watch a style grow up. Search it, sort it, organize it by year, and star the ones you love.
BRING ONE TO LIFE
Pick a favourite and watch it become a soft little character of its own — or a short animation of it moving. The original is never changed, never replaced, never deleted. It stays exactly as they drew it, right next to the new version.
FREE FOREVER, AND WE MEAN IT
- Scan and keep as many drawings as you like. No limits, no subscription, ever.
- Everything lives on your phone, not on our servers.
- Download all — export your whole library as ordinary photo files, foldered by child, any time you want.
- Optional backup goes to your own Google Drive, not ours.
- You only pay if you choose to bring a drawing to life. That's the only thing that costs anything, because that's the only thing that costs us anything.
MADE FOR FAMILIES
- Kid mode — hand the phone over and let them browse their own gallery without being able to change anything.
- No ads. No tracking. No account to create.
- Nothing is sent anywhere unless you choose to generate or turn on backup.
Built by a dad who ran out of drawer space.
