Adding Color Palette

I like the app, it’s minimal and easy to use, however, I would like it more if I could also be able to add some color palette directly on the canvas page.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the positive review. That’s an interesting request and I’ll definitely consider your feedback when working on the next major update.

Simple and straight to the point

This drawing app is so simple and easy to use, really great for quick sketches and ideas with its un-intrusiveness. Really reminds me of the good old days when apps were standalone utilities that just works. A suggestion, i think it’ll look better if the pencil tool is a bit lighter that darkens more with pressure, and with a little bit finer grain, but all in all, this app is plain lovely.

Developer Response ,

I’m glad you like the app. I’ll consider the feedback on the pencil the next time I work on the tools.

Great app!

I’ve been really looking for a drawing app like this that is very lightweight and easy to use. I guess i found it. I don’t have any problems with it. I could just draw without thinking on changing brush sizes or opacity. It feels natural to draw, that’s what this app is made for!

It has few bugs though. Looking forward for more improvements.

Developer Response ,

Thanks for the review! I’m always working on bug fixes and hope that the bugs I didn’t catch during testing aren’t too annoying.
