‎iArtbook 4+

As I downloaded iArtbook, I expected a knock off of Procreate where you have to watch ads for every tool, not just a few. I didn’t get what I expected. I got an amazing (mostly) ad-free experience, with amazing tools and features. I’ve loved this app for years, I went through a lot of different art apps and had never found one like this one.

But I’m starting to lose hope in iArtbook. I miss watching one add and having premium tools for 12 hours. That was reasonable, and a way for the company to make money without pressuring premium. That’s all changed now. Advertisements left and right. References. I save a picture to my files to use it as a reference, watch a two minute ad (which, by the way, USED to be about 30 seconds) and the reference screen pulls up, but it only allows photos. I have to go back, convert the file to a photo, and watch another ad. They’re out of control. If I close my piece to open another, guess what’s waiting for me? An advertisement. The worst part is, I cant even save my work without an advertisement. That’s a plain waste of time. I just screenshot mine, lose a lot of quality, by the way. But it still gives me an ad at random.
I used to love this app, I still use it often. But I’m beginning to wonder to new apps because iArtbook has changed so much. Developers, I hope you take my problems, and other people’s, into consideration.

This game has been a really fun way that I can draw on and be inspired. I love this app and it’s even better than procreate procreate you have to spend at least $10 or more for stuff this game everything is free I wouldn’t even consider a game I would consider it something a real artist would use I know a lot of Youtubers use procreate for their artThis is just another step up from procreate and everything is free there’s basically zero ads which one thing I hate about games is all the ads there’s always a 1 million ads in them I art book provides so many good things and a couple of things that procreate doesn’t one thing that I like aboutThis game is that it provides you a lot of stuff you could add detail and texture you could do different kinds of gradients and different blends also one thing that this has that procreate does not have is that you could insert pictures of things. Overall I think this is a really good game and if you want to improve our skills I think you should use this one difficult thing on this though is I don’t know if you guys can but I can’t figure out how to use the animation thing and add another slide or whatever but if you wanna improve your art skills and have a little more creativity and stuff I wouldDefinitely recommend this game to you. Overall amazing game and you should download it five star rating for me.!

In my baby artist days, I wish I had come across this app. I was broke (still am) and my parents had recently gotten me an iPad and Apple Pencil. I couldn’t afford any high quality apps such as Procreate and I didn’t want to get an app that gave me a free trial, or a free edition. Those limitations weren’t the best. So I settled with Autodesk Sketchbook. A very good free app, but it didn’t really suit my needs. Before I go further, I’d just like to say that just because you get a professional drawing setup or a high quality app, doesn’t mean your drawings and animations will automatically improve. I expected a lot from an iPad and an Apple Pencil, but my art looked the same. It’s not about the quality of the medium, it’s the way you can improve upon your art and look at it with a critical eye. (Not too critical!) Anyway, Autodesk sketchbook didn’t have the kind of brushes I liked, and it wasn’t very sensitive to pressure. Then I got procreate. Don’t get me wrong, Procreate is AWESOME. It’s a huge step up. But this app? iArtbook? It’s a game changer. Similar controls to procreate, but free. Of course, there are ads. How else could you support an app like this? It’s awesome for beginners and professionals alike! (I’m not professional, I’m somewhere in the middle.) Again, though, everyone has different preferences. I love this app, but it may not be for you! Just please try it out. :)
