Photoshop on the iPad, except with poorer than desired user experience

Palm rejection is somewhat poor, since accidental undos are alarmingly frequent. Side buttons seem somewhat unresponsive and I can’t seem to rename my brushes for some whatever reason.

File explorer is also clunky and outdated, since it relies on an edit button instead of also allowing drag and drop functionality, like Procreate.

Other than that performance is good and most essential Photoshop features are present. This would be a perfect Photoshop substitute on iPad if it weren’t for the crippling issues I described above.

Great App

Better than procreate in many ways, fantastic mix engine. They do need to improve things like the auto shapes could allow for multiple anchor point editing without needing to do a seperate select and transform, like procreate does but in general it’s a better application.

Please work on allowing multiple anchor points to edit selection lines and shapes. Then just focus on performance and stability further. I would also strongly suggest reviewing your onetime pricing, in AUD it’s around $55 vs procreate being $20, that’s a massive difference that will turn many people off your application before they even get to see how great it is. Please consider bringing the onetime charge down to around $25 AUD so you can compete with procreate as this should be the number 1 iPad drawing application.

Best app next to Photoshop

The developers of Artstudio Pro have done a great job with this app. I feel like I’ve jumped into Photoshop on the iPad with all my favourite brushes and without paying the stupid subscription.
This is app is solid, I’ve pushed it hard without any crashes.
What I like mostly about using ASP is the developers are always working to make it better.
Save your money and buy Artstudio Pro, you won’t regret it just as I didn’t.
