Customer Reviews

Almost... (3 stars)
For all the great features that Sketchbook has going for it, there are two glaring problems that make this app less than stellar. First, the blending tool, instead of blending or smearing the way an artist would expect, it just drags/warps the pixels in an exaggerated way with very little blending of color. Adjusting the settings for the tool doesn't improve it noticeably. Procreate, Inspire Pro, and even Luxdraw (a "toy" app) do a

Meh :/ (3 stars)
It's looks nice but it's not really practical. The art you create with this looks overtly digital. That's not necessarily a bad thing, if you're into that sort of thing, but I prefer apps that allow you to create both digital-looking art and natural-media type drawings and paintings. An essential part of this is a good blending tool. Now, I don't really like that word. "Blending" and "smudging" have a little bit of a nega

Best draw app! But lags at times. (3 stars)
The best app for drawing there is for iPad!

(comment for the developers: app becomes very slow when dealing with layers. With switching between layers, any action with layers makes very long load times and app becomes unresponsive for at least 10 seconds. Loading times needs a performance boost. This is from 3rd Gen iPad)
