Hi. It sounds like you want everything free? That would be great if we could make everything free. But we can't. I will write this reply for adults and parents who are reading this. We all know that Youtube has everything free. Pinterest has everything free. There are lots of free drawing apps on the iPad and iPhone. Yet this person has come to ShadowDraw, because every other app has failed them. Every other app has promised them they can learn to draw and does not. Otherwise this young person would have stuck with those other apps. But this young learner has come to ShadowDraw. And they have bean raised to expect everything in life to be free. We will work hard to make more things free. But I think it will never be enough. We could make lots of kids art free and more higher quality art paid. I would like your opinion. You can read over and over how every bad review from a kid is they want us to be free. They are not saying they are not enjoying drawing. So I think we have some pretty passionate kids out there who want to actually learn. We are not an additive game. We are an actual learning platform. Let's not all fail these kids. Thank you :)

Hi, Thank you for sharing that you love ❤️ ShadowDraw. We work hard to try to offer free art that shows the value of our learning experience that only ShadowDraw offers. We just added a whole free course that teaches core drawing practice. This course was once only in the subscription. Have you drawn this course yet?
We have a lot of young learners around the world that love ShadowDraw and we don't think they should have to see non relevant ads cluttering the screen so we can make a buck. A delightedly drawing experience that lets you learn and stay in flow is very important to us. We try hard to make our monthly and yearly subscription a great value.
For parents reading this, you can email me any time: marty@shadowdrawapp.com I will be happy to share with you how your young learner will grow so much with access to ShadowDraw. They will "learn by doing", they will learn a skill that is already inside of them. And we use our accelerated process to bring it out of them. :)
