What's New in Version 5.4.11

This update includes some small, but highly requested features! Eyedropper can pick colours exclusively from the active layer, and you can select all layers then duplicate, share, and merge them all at once.
¡Bienvenidos amigos de Latino América! Procreate is now a better experience for Spanish speakers, supporting both Spanish from Spain and Spanish from Latin America.
Eyedropper active layer
Tap with a second finger while you are picking colours to toggle between sampling from your current layer and the whole canvas. You can pick colours from a layer even if the pixels are behind something else.
Multiple layer actions
Swipe right on all the layers you like the look of, and tap on the Layers title to get some new options. In addition to grouping and deleting in bulk, you can now merge, duplicate and share. You can also Select All and do all those things to all your layers.
There's also a bunch of high value fixes for:
- brushes duplicating themselves.
- transforming layer masks.
- improving the end of stroke on devices with hover.
- content deleting after undoing layer merges and then moving layers.
Did you know in Gesture Controls under Eyedropper toggling on Apple Pencil squeeze means you can pick colours without ever touching the screen?

Very good app but constantly adding unnecessary features in updates

I like this drawing app a lot but why did you need to put the Merg and Group functions under a menu in the layers panel? It was fine where it was on the right hand side.
This among many irritating changes finally made me turn off automatic updates. I’d rather see an update that provides the ability to clip to layers rather than rounding every corner for no reason or duplicating my brushes? Why is that glitch still a thing? Great app with some glaring blindspots that can be frustrating

I luv this app

Procreate is where I draw and make my manga’s but I think it would be better if you add endless animation layers and make the drawing layers not part of it then I could add one more star

Best in the world

I used to be the worst drawer ever until I found the game it is the best because there is so many different ways to draw I first learned about the app looked up other games but I liked this one I think u should all get this game if I could I would give it 100.0000 stars.
Probably not the best game

Alright can we all agree this is THE BEST APP EVER? You don’t have to pay to use things like brushes and colours ( you only have to play to get it) easy for kids and teens and adults so if you don’t like it I DONT LIKE YOU AND YOU GOTTA DEAL WITH IT CAUSE MY BESTIES AND ME BE COMIN FOR YOU IF YOU DONT LIKE IT🩷

Kinda glitchy rn

I use procreate a lot- I love it it’s really fun! However there’s a glitch that’s been happening recently where I can’t move my canvases around? I’ll tap and hold and drag my canvases but they’ll just fade out and then not go anywhere… and when they do they just disappear and reappear in a random spot.
I like to keep all my work organized and this makes it really hard… please, if it’s fixable, fix it ToT

I love but….

I love procreate but I had a brush called lofty life, and I updated …. I know you might be like "so you just updated?" But I was testing out brush’s then I saw a remake called lofty life-original
Yes it’s the same name but listen the remake has lofty life-original but mine has lofty life without the original 😳 so I thought procreate might have taken my brush as there own 🥲. I hope this isn’t true tho
Yay …….

Great interface and brushes but bad lag

Procreate is such a good app with its high quality brushes and easy interface that almost anyone could learn it in 1 day. However, it’s so laggy! I don’t understand why it’s marketed as a “lightweight” app when for some reason there’s a layer limit! Also, I have this weird bug where I can’t move the layers.

I lost my work of 5 years

All of my art is gone that I’ve done for the past 5 years even though II had my iPad backed up. I am extremely upset and can’t believe this has happened. I’ve spent well over 500 hours on my work and it’s gone.

Deleted work

Honestly great app for artists with good features, however why is that when I wanted to crop and resize my canvas for an animation all my hours of work disappeared even pressing undo multiple times had no impact whatsoever? Which was very frustrating and devastating knowing that all the hours were wasted on just trying to resize my canvas with no warning of everything being wiped out. Honestly so disappointing knowing that all my work is gone.

Some glitches lately.

Great app overall but lately i’ve been experiencing some weird glitches. The image quality can degrade very quickly if i try to modify even a little bit my drawing, and i can’t re orientate my drawing without all the pixels separating in different directions. If i could fix this, it would be a 5 stars for sure

Removed a font I NEED

Hi Procreate team! I genuinely do not know how else to contact you. I'm sorry, I really love this app, but you just added an update, from what I can see, that changed the font selection, and you removed Jack Armstrong BB. I am currently, right now, in the middle of making a comic. I need that font back, desperately. I can't go back and reformat everything. Please please please I beg of you, please give those fonts back. It would mean the absolute world.

NOT EXPECTED!?!

I love drawing and recently I asked my mum for this app she said sure why not because I used ripoffs before. I open it and CLEAN interface my Wacom tablet wasn’t glitchy like, hi-paint, or ibis paint x, with bigger canvases. This is the best drawing app 10/10 and this was my first 5 star review on any app the highest used to be a 3 but you guys wowed me.

New Update Removed all purchased brushes

Please don’t waste your time in getting this app. I had bought brushes online from Etsy, Ko-Fi and they were amazing fun to use. After the big update it removed everything all my settings and purchases.
I wish I was warned before a major update that this would happen.
I’ve tried importing them back in but it won’t accept it. Now having to start things from scratch or not being able to use my favourite brushes I paid for it’s very discouraging to use. As if I was playing a game and put all my efforts into just to be reset and start at level 1 again. Procreate has really fallen.

Deleted Work :((

I love procreate most of the time but they really need to do something about the delete button of art…. I was trying to select a piece that I recently worked really hard on and was so proud, I was almost completely finished it but instead of duplicating the file, I accidentally hit delete and now that piece is completely gone with no way of restoring it…this app really needs a recently deleted section because the amount of times I’ve lost art I was super proud of is honestly so upsetting and disappointing especially for an app that I had to pay money for..

Лагает от веса

Уважаемые разработчики, я знаю, что много рисую, но мне кажется не настолько, чтобы приложение начало лагать спустя 5 лет. У меня рисунков на 70 гб. Да, я знаю, что много, но и кисточек на 1 гб. Когда я рисую, выделение лассо, открытие палитры, или вставка фото грузит по несколько секунд, раньше такого не было. У меня айпад 11 2 поколения на 1 тб, и приложения, которые весят больше не лагают, но лагает ваше приложение для рисования….

One time payment creativity for all

It doesn’t matter where your skill level and confidence is at for art, this app will always have your back. I have used this app for years and I am now in university for illustration. This app has always been a good avenue to explore my ideas in. It’s useful for the beginning of projects (sketching, brainstorming, storyboarding, etc). However, it’s also a great way to create, refine, and finalize projects.
This app has so many great default brushes, plus if you don’t like something about a brush, you can easily edit and save it for the future. You can also save colour pallets. You can have tons of drawings and canvases and sort them into folders.
This app is so awesome and you only have to pay for it once!
One last big bonus that I can think of at the moment is that because this is a popular app, there are tons of free brushes, resources, and tutorials for it online.
All in all, this is a great app for exploring creativity.
**This app is enjoyed even further if you have an Apple Pencil instead of just your fingers!**

Blown away by this AMAZING app!!

I am truly blown away by this app!! I am a young artist and i just got the app months ago, it was quite tricky to figure everything out at first, but i managed. As said, i wanna give some pros and cons about the app:
Pros:
-no lag
-its not SUPER overwhelming with all the controls, so its good for younger artists looking for a good app
-Amazing quality!
-so many Beautiful brushes for any drawing you come up with, but you can download more as well
-works great with stylus, Apple Pencil and anything else compatible with iPad
-it has zoom in and out for precise details
-there’s many more pros but i cant name them all!!
Cons:
-I couldn’t think of any cons because this app is FLAW-LESS
Thanks to procreate i can create BEAUTIFUL illustrations and animations, also if your looking for downloadable brushes, download the app: Brushes for Procreate. Anyways HUGE thanks to Procreate, if there was an option for 10 stars, i would definitely give it 10 stars or more!!
-sincerely a loyal procreate user.

An Amazing Drawing App

I wanted to make this review so anyone who wants to get this app now will know the current features, but before I list them, I’ll just say: I love the app, and honestly, even though I bought Procreate Dreams, I really love the regular app’s animation feature! It’s great for beginners and is easy to use, since it includes all the main tools but just with frames and fps and extra onion skin related things.
Pros:
Tons and tons of pre made brushes, gradient maps, and pallets
Great even without any special bought or custom made brushes
Tons of tools (text tool, selection tool, saturation adjustments, etc)
Understandable interface and UI-buttons are the right size, stays out of the way, clean and polished looking
Just generally tons of features and for a good price, because the longer you use it the more you get out of it
Also a GREAT handbook. I suggest using it, since it’ll answer most questions.
Cons: there are very few cons and most of them have to do with unclear functionality or text functions.
Very few preset text fonts. I suggest downloading and importing others.
Some unclear features, like the Colordrop feature, which can be hard to get used to since there’s no “paint bucket” button, which is a familiar UI button in art programs.
Animation feature is good but not in depth. This makes sense however, because Procreate is not really made for animation.
Otherwise, probably just the brush customization, it’s a bit hard to understand, until you get used to it.
All in all: an amazing art program for a fair price, because remember, this is a ONE TIME purchase! So if you use it you’ll get a lot out of it, and $20 won’t seem as much as before. I personally love it, and use it for all my art.

Before I say this, let me preface it with the fact that procreate has always been my favourite piece of software on the iPad… and then… I bought a new 13” iPad Pro yesterday and a new Apple Pencil Pro to go with it based purely on the keynote presentation in which you demoed Procreate with the new hardware. Boy did I feel stupid when I opened up procreate only to learn that it doesn’t yet support the Apple Pencil Pro. Great prank guys, you got me.

The worst app I’ve ever used

I was making an animation and I needed to move everything a few pixels to the side, and I was almost finished. So I grouped all the layers together and moved it to the side. I didn’t know how to un group it so I deleted the group, that deleted all my layers, but before I could press undo it kicked my out of the app so it’s all gone for good. And the Timelapse isn’t working so I flipped the switch to see maybe it was off but it was on and the time lapse just won’t work for me and so my whole animation is gone because of this stupid app. Save your money just use the free app ibis paint x, its free and has all the things that procreate has and is over all a better app.

Width and height

I just wanna know why i cant make my width or height any bigger than 1920 x1920 . Very annoying. Any time I try to change it it only goes as big as 1920. WHY.

please… the triangle

amazing, amazing app. i love the procreate team sm.
but i wish there were an option to use a triangle color picker. being able to see the relationship between value and chroma automatically would be unbelievably helpful.
it’s frustrating that there isn’t a way to desaturate a color without changing its value. and even the HSB adjustment feature doesn’t seem to do it accurately, the values end up different to how they would appear if i set my device to grayscale without adjusting.

Unresponsive on iOS 16.1

After update to 16.1, the app becomes very unresponsive. Apple pencil can’t be used on certain part of the canvas, and it’s very random. I’m on a M2 ipad.

Amazing but

How do I make the fill consider all layers since I made a new one for the color so I can fill the linart and to mater where I drag no matter what I make the threshold is just paints the intire canvas and I can’t find anything in the handbook so if you could reply with an aw set that would be amazing

Love it!

The features are great!! I love the amount of brushes you can use and it’s fun to animate on! I love using this for experiments with techniques I don’t usually use.

Nice but one request

Hello! I enjoy your app. Although, you added an animation feature, I have began to start using it BUT there are no layers and instead I struggle animating without layers because you have used layers. Sorry if I am complaining but either than that, I enjoy drawing pictures and when I use my pen it works well with procreate.

This app is absolutely amazing, just one thing, I would like it if it had something for making seamless images or tiles, sort of like kritas Wrap around mode, Other than that, I am seriously Impressed you managed to make an Art app as good as this for iPad. :)

Can you add a recycle box for it?

It’s so easy for people to delete both file after duplicating, or if duplicated can you dismiss the selection of both the original file and the duplicated one? It’s so annoying that you just finished and accidentally deleted after duplicated.

Worst drawing app I’ve ever used

I heard good things about this app from a few people but I’ve been trying it for about an hour now and it’s absolutely awful I’m very disappointed I spent my Christmas money on this. I wish there was a free version you could try before you waste you money on this. I wish app refunds existed. I’d strongly recommend getting FREE ibisPaint before you waste your money on this. Ps I’m normally way less mean I’m just disappointed I wasted my money

I hate the new resizing update

The 5.0 update changed how you resize selected items. It’s ruining my life. Please, please change it back, I beg you. I want to be able to resize it from any point on the canvas. Please please fix this.

Freezing a LOT

This app is amazing but it’s painful to use sometimes. I’m experiencing near constant freezing on colour fills. Would be 5 stars without this issue.

Great app!

This is an amazing app! I love all the brushes and texture! Also amazing features!
But the one problem is a bug? (I think) it’s when I’m using the app the colors turn from like vibrant to grayish
Example: red to (grayish) orange and blue to (grayish) blue! Everything is a bit sadder looking! Please help! I can’t draw like this.

Procreate is Amazing

I have been using procreate for a while now and I just want to say that $10 is just the best price ever for this app. And I love that there is no “pro” version that costs even more money and a monthly subscription.
The layout is very simple and doesn’t get in the way of your canvas. There is even an option to hide those few buttons temporarily by tapping with four fingers! There are so many hidden and cool features which makes it so fun to try and find them.
The gesture settings is an amazing tool that helps you make things the way you like them and there are so many additional features like ‘animation assist’ and ‘drawing guide’ that the app doesn’t need to have, but it does and that is what makes it amazing.
The creators of this app have made so many videos that are going to help beginners with learning how the app works.
I think the best additional feature the app has (that I don’t think any other drawing app has) is the fact that you can create your own brushes and even get brushes created by other users online.
Overall, thank you to whoever made this app and please keep updating it!

The best app you could think of

I never rate apps. Actually, I probably never did. But this app is probably THE best purchase I’ve done on the App Store. It’s incredible, suitable for all levels, extremely smart and easy to learn. I LOVE IT.

Very Glitchy

Hello.
I love your app Procreate and have been using it for a couple of years now, but recently the app has been very glitchy.
For one, when I’m working on a piece, it will randomly freeze and to fix this, I have to remove the app from my recently used apps and re-enter it.
Also, whenever I select an already existing canvas, the app will crash and the canvas won’t load. And again I have to repeat the process i mentioned earlier.
This works but it is tedious and wastes my time.
However, there is another problem that has happened just today - I cannot delete my canvases, even when I restart my device and yet again repeat the same process.
Please fix these issues soon because I am really considering uninstalling this app. And it’s such a shame too because this app costs money.
EDIT: No longer using this app. More glitches have popped and it’s getting in the way of my work now. I complained about them before but support just blew me off.
I am not uninstalling however, because:
1) I need to keep all of my artworks
2) This app costs money
Not using it until you fix your glitches.

New animation feature

I almost cried of joy at this new animation feature. Being able to create animations within this app using the layers as frames is amazing! Usually I would have to draw each frame, export, then compile the images and shorten into a video.

Great app. Missing key features.

This app is phenomenal to use until you want to add text to the image. I’m trying to design some labels and there is no in app way to add text outside of drawing it.

Absolutely incredible killer app

This app is incredible. It literally made me buy an iPad Pro. However, make sure you have a plan or ample space to backup the app if you need to replace the iPad or in case you lose it.
Otherwise, just an absolutely stunning, smooth, deep and rewarding drawing experience.

A very good digital art app

The best digital art app I have used on the iPad. I have tried out several other applications, however Procreate stands out for its simple yet familiar interface to photoshop. It is loaded with unique brushes and if they don’t satisfy you there are custom brushes you can find online. This app is great for hardcore and casual digital artists and at its price point I find it pretty hard to beat.

Crashes

I love this app soooo much! I’m still learning how to use some of the features, but I think this app is amazing! Lately though the app crashes a lot for me. If I open certain drawings, it’ll crash, which gets a little annoying after a while. I’ve also noticed that my video replay of my drawings usually doesn’t work anymore. It just freezes and doesn’t show anything, which usually results in the app crashing. Again, a little annoying, but other than that I love it!!! 😄❤️

Tattoo Artist’s dream tool

Totally love this app, use it every day for designing tattoos. It would be cool to drag files from emails right onto a canvas some day. And it often doesn’t recognize my finger gestures, like simply turning the canvas with the two finger hold and move trick which seems to work speratically. Otherwise I am more than grateful for this tool, reduces my drawing time to less than half and I save so much on paper and fancy felt pens! Thanks guys. Bravo.

Great App For All Level Artists

This is a great app, I bought it today and coming from a Wacom tablet, I prefer this. It is easy to use and has great tools for art. Here are some pros and cons
Pros:
Lots of tools varying from drawing, inking and sketching.
Inexpensive but it does not show it in the software
No lag at all
You can zoom in and out to do very great detail
Upload images to copy from as a reference image
Lots of colours, also if you need an exact colour, put the colours number into the software and it lets you use that colour
Cons:
I thought long and hard but I cannot think of a con. Only thing I recommend is getting a cheap $12 stylus from a electronic store or staples which is more comfortable.
Thank you pro create for this amazing app! I have been creating lots of great art work with it. Also, thank you for making it affordable!
