It has only been under 2 days since I've downloaded this program and let me just say, I am filled with love. It's a comfortable app to use for drawing, something that I thought would've never been possible. I've always thought I was bad at drawing with my fingers cause I'm not used to drawing on my phone, but it was really just a lot of art applications' interfaces that made me feel uncomfortable. This app was the one that proved that to me, because when I used this I could actually paint without having to constantly zoom in and out and without having to pay for any of the brushes. My only complain is that I hate how the brushes just imitate pen pressure sensitivity even though I have 3d touch on. I was thinking if it were possible to have an drawing engine that resembles Ibispaint's pressure sensitivity or even Sketchbook Pro's pressure senstivity where the drawing feels much more natural, but that could lead to some expenses I bet. Apart from my only one complain, this art app has filled most if not all of my criterias in art and has really levelled itself to my standards, note that I am very meticulous when it comes to working with a new program. I wasn't expecting THAT much from this app even though I've seen the impeccable advertisement and runthrough shown above. It's a calming art program that won't charge you for anything that you need. It is incredibly generous in the most ridiculous way possible. I would give this app a 4 and a half star if apple allowed it, because 4 stars in my opinion is too low for this app which I am so thankful to come across to.
Feature suggestion

I’m playing around with the animation feature this app has but I cannot seem to find an option to import audio or music. Can we add an option to add audio either from files or extracted from existing videos in your camera roll? It would be a very useful feature especially for lip syncing.While drawing in front face view, in an animation piece I have to copy one side and paste it on a different layer and do the effort of hiding all my background layers to copy all layers and make the face symmetrical and it’s quite a tedious process. I suggest either making layers able to merge in an animation type piece or adding a symmetry ruler to be able to draw both sides being symmetrical without having to copy and paste one side of your layer and flip it in order to make something like a face same of both sides
It was good while it lasted

I really thought that I finally found what could be the best app that could battle everything about procreate. I used this app for as long as I can remember when I had my iPad 7th gen. I’m pretty bummed by the paying for everything but I understand the struggle when it comes to trying to gain the help needed for going against a very popular app. But the 799₱ is too ridiculous for me to pay, especially since iArtbook doesn’t have the 3d model sculpting the same as procreate, and given that procreate offers more for artists. This is why I say “it was good while it lasted” I have made tons and tons of artworks and animations with this app in my teenage years. Maybe now it’s time to finally buy procreate for a new iPad. It wasn’t just good, this app was the best thing that happened to me.
The best drawing app yet!

It’s like a combination of the available drawing apps in the store! I am currently using ibispaintx and procreate. I absolutely love the gesture/thumbzone! That way both hands are really putting effort to draw since i usually just use my right hand only with the pencil and undo gesture in most drawing apps! The brushes are soo soo good especially the 5 or more tool selection feature! The brushes are so smooth and the natural feel of drawing is there tho i will still have to try the whole collection. I was really shocked at how the drawing space was so wide and the tool interface is so easy to use. I am still exploring the app and I’m already inlove! Thank you so much for making this! I will absolutely go with the pro version! I will be back to update my review!
