Sketch Me‪!‬ 4+

This app is great buuuuut sometimes the buttons don’t click. Maybe it’s just my phone screen though. So I still give it a 5. It also makes me look ugly but that’s just me, un photogenic. Again, not the app. It looks great with other people, and super fun to color the pictures. Cool how you can change the texture too. No bugs so far. Great app, definitely recommend.

The app does not follow or use any iOS UI controls. On first launch, the app kept crashing and closing. This happens until you get on the wifi. Why do I need wifi to use the app? The image I tested worked poorly. It did not appear as a sketch, as much as it was a filtered version to highlight the dark edges and lighten the other colors. I can achieve this far better in drawing apps. The app is not iPad friendly. It does not rotate for landscape mode. There might be features that are good, but they are not discoverable. The on screen icons show some options, but again, the lack of iOS controls make them had the use. It took me a few minutes to figure out how to close an option panel. Click the X or close box? Nope, you re-click the icon to close the panel. The app also kept prompting me for a review after only a few minutes. Ok, so after a few minutes, I think this is a really bad app and i give you a thumbs down - 1 star review.

Being a new person to the art scene having taking up drawing because of the isolation of the virus situation and the fact that it is going to continue, I found The most time consuming task is putting a layout on the canvas especially since I am currently doing a lot of copying and tracings. This app enables me to take a picture of an item on my cell phone, reverse it into a sketch from your program then make a copy which I can enlarge and place onto the canvas. The most difficult part of a painting for me is that process. By using your app I can cut down on a good 60% of the pre-work also in enabling me to be highly accurate.
