Description

Charcoal allows you to visualize ideas. It’s simple and focuses on what matters: your idea.

• Charcoal is incredibly easy to use: Just create or open a sketch and start sketching. There are no layers or confusing settings. Instead, Charcoal features rich tools and beautiful color palettes.
• Charcoal allows you to export a sketch to use it in your favorite graphics program.
• Charcoal supports modern iOS and iPadOS features like multiple windows and dark mode: use it at night or open multiple sketches, even side by side.

Nice app!

This app allows me to finally draw digitally THAT ACTUALLY is easy to use!
I finally can sketch my fav characters nowwww!😃😃
I have a suggestion though, can you add in a feature that enables us to have like, infinite colors or like, we can make our own colors through a color disc or something similar to that! If you don’t know what I’m talking about, use ProCreate as an example. You know, the color disc that allows to have nearly every color in existence...yeah, you got the idea.
So yeah! That’s all the suggestions I have for now!
Thank you for making this app, this app is outstanding and should be graded as A*!

Thanks again,

Developer Response ,

I'm glad you like the app. It's always good to hear about how it's being used. In Charcoal's settings you can create custom palettes under “Color Palettes”. That way you can use custom colors in the current version. I'll be sure to make this more obvious in a future update.

Really great sketching app!!

Thanks for this free app, my whole family enjoys using it.

For new users on iPhone : the colours are found on the bottom bar, just roll the icons to the left and you will find them!

Thanks for the review! I'll make the colors on iPhone more obvious in the next big update.

:’D

The app crashes /canvas shuts down suddenly quite often. Happen for more than 10 times (although I tried restarting the app n iPad). It sometimes forgot to save what I doodled, and 1h effort was gone :’D
But the brushes were good.

Developer Response ,

Sorry about the issue. I'll look into it.
