OVERVIEW
How many times have you been drawing a portrait for hours only to realize that the nose or the eye is in the wrong place? You can use Da Vinci Eye to layout artwork before you begin or even check your work as you progress.
Having a hard time seeing where lights or darks go? Breakdown images into layers by color value. Then virtually project those layers on top of your image. You can see exactly where to place the darkest darks, mid-tones, and highlights.
CAN'T THINK OF WHAT TO DRAW?
Check out our inspiration section for user uploaded reference photos. If you have a great pic, you can even upload your own content for other artists to draw.
LEARNING HOW TO DRAW?
We have lessons using our unique patent-pending learning method. You can also turn ANY photo into a step by step shading drawing lesson.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Based on a tool that has been used by artists for centuries, this app is a digital version of a Camera Lucida.
You suspend your iPhone or iPad above or in front of your canvas with a stand, tall glass, or other objects easily found around your house.
When you look through your phone, you will see both the image and the canvas simultaneously. It's similar in functionality to an art projector or light box, but with the ability to do so much more.
You can draw on any surface, zoom in to draw micro details in your drawing, and you don't have to draw in the dark.
WILL THIS HELP ME LEARN HOW TO DRAW?
Using Da Vinci Eye, you will be training your eye to recognize proportions and draw with shading while training your hand to translate precise lines and strokes on paper. You’ll learn faster and more efficiently using our proven techniques compared to any other app.
AR MODE REQUIREMENTS
To use AR mode, you must have an A10x or A11 processor and above. We recommend using:
– iPhone 8 and newer (iPhone 7 and below will not work)
– iPad Mini 5th Generation and newer
– iPad Air 2019 and newer
– iPad Pro 3rd Gen (Any pro made after 2018) and newer
AR & CLASSIC MODE
AR mode anchors your image to an object in the real world. This lets you move your canvas or phone, and the drawing and projected image will stay aligned.
Classic mode is like a normal art projector, where if you move your phone or canvas, the drawing will no longer be aligned.
AR mode is especially useful for drawing or painting on an easel. However, in most cases, Classic mode will achieve the same result.

more I am a live painter. As an artist who paints live I need to work quickly! I love drawing I have since a child! But when I’m doing live painting I often don’t know what I’m doing until the day before or on the day! This app has made my job so much quicker and efficient! I love to draw, but now I can crack a drawing out in minutes! Instead of hours! I don’t have to line things up! I love that fact it helps so much with up scaling in terms of big projects! I don’t loose the scale! And again I can get it drawn up in half the time! I would highly recommend this app if you have a super busy schedule! It’s so easy to use! The staff are super helpful if you need assistance with the app. I use this in partnership with zoom too! Helps me do much bigger pieces! Such a brilliant tool! I can’t bang on enough about it. The helpful videos and community that’s available is seriously helpful and appreciated! Just go play and find out for yourself! You won’t regret it!

Previously posted a review with 2 stars because I couldn’t figure out how to zoom out so I could see my whole page / marked off area. Developer reached out almost immediately and talked me through the functionality. And now I can honestly say this app is amazing. Makes it super easy for me to figure out layout and proportion in my sketchbook journal. Especially now I know how to see the whole page or a bigger part of the whole! There is probably a whole lot more I don’t know about but for right now I am really chuffed with classic mode. Going to be honest: the most satisfying thing about using this app vs the other one I have been using is the fact that I can continue listening to my audiobook while drawing because this doesn’t shut down my audio when I start a new drawing! Thanks to the devs for helping me out. Clearly I am now internet reading nanna and am easily confused by non very obvious things!
Developer Response Hey there! You can zoom in and out to focus on details as shown in the instructional video, you can also change the camera to be .5, 1, and 2x. I highly reccomend checking out that super quick instructional video of how to use the app as all of this is explained in there. Also, we have extremely fast customer service and usually respond right away for additional questions you might have. Feel free to shoot me an email info@davincieyeapp.com or use the contact button in the app. Update: It looks like we got this all sorted out!

Ok so fairs fair it’s a good app. As soon as I saw it I bought it. However I soon started too notice problems. The controls are there but not great. Ergonomic. However the biggest problem I have is, if I want to go landscape not an option. So you can turn the image to be landscape BUT adjusting up pulls it down, left goes right etc. Now the last bit, if you zoom in or out or move the image even in portrait and loose where the image or camera is, forget it. It’s gone. No reset no centre no start again. Meaning the best and usually ONLY way get it back is delete the project and start again. Also last bit there is a companion app you can use too make massive drawings. Now this app de Vinci eye is £5.99 but you have to pay once every year or per month or whatever for the other which I HATE and will NEVER SIGN UP TO ANYTHING LIKE THAT. If I did I’d be paying out like £600 a month and not use have of that stuff. So NO SALE. GET IT?
Developer Response Hi there, this app is not a subscription it is a one time payment. I'm a bit confused what you are saying there. Also, there is an undo button in the top left corner of the screen that looks like a back arrow. If you accidentally move the overlay image when it is not locked in place, or do anything else you would like to undo, you can press this button. There is no need to restart a project. You can also triple tap the center of the screen to re-center everything. A side note, you should always lock your image in place though so you can zoom in and out without un-aligning your image. You can do this by unselecting the move button after you initially press it place you image on the paper. Finally, you should always start the app in a portrait orientation for AR mode to position the image on the paper. After that you can move it to a landscape position, or any other position that you like. If you have any questions about using the app we respond insanely fast to emails, info@davincieyeapp.com, or the contact button found in the app. Thanks!

I LOVE this app! I never write reviews for apps because I don’t usually care too much about them and have never paid for an app before, but this was well worth every penny for me. I’m a wood carving artist and was struggling to find a way to take the designs I’d drawn and shrink them down to then draw onto my blanks, until I found this app! Before I was actually printing my designs and sticking them on, which was always a tediously dull and time consuming exercise, so this app has been a game changer for me. It’s great to be able to zoom in on the camera and adjust the size of your stencil separately, because on other apps if you move your camera it’s a nightmare trying to readjust it, so that’s a great feature. I use this app every day and could be without it now, so I’d definitely recommend it - particularly for wood carvers!

Da Vinci Eye 5.0 is here! This is one of the biggest updates we’ve ever made. We redesigned the app from the ground up to make creating artwork easier, more intuitive, and more enjoyable.
What’s new in 5.0:
• A completely new Liquid Glass design
• A rebuilt drawing screen with a cleaner interface and easier-to-understand controls
• A new Guided Setup that walks you through getting started step by step
• Record long-form videos of your drawing process
• Support for 7 new languages
• Brand new instructional videos to help you get the most out of Da Vinci Eye
• Search community inspiration to quickly find photos and artwork you want to create
• And so much more!
We’ve also made improvements throughout the app to make everything feel faster, clearer, and easier to use.
Da Vinci Eye has grown a lot since we first launched, but our goal is still the same: create powerful digital tools that help you make real artwork.
As always, thank you so much for your support, feedback, drawings, paintings, murals, cakes, and everything else you’ve created with Da Vinci Eye. We genuinely could not keep building this without you.
If you run into a bug, have an idea for a feature, or just want to say hello, you can contact us directly from the side menu in the app.
We hope you love Da Vinci Eye 5.0!
