It's been great to learn and create custom content for my business.

### "Procreate - the go to software for iPad artists"

January 10, 2022

5.0

Procreate has been a huge plus for my business and I use it several times a week to create artwork for clients.I enjoy playing around in it on my own time as well!

Pros

Using Procreate on an iPad with an i pencil is the closest I have gotten to feeling like I am working in a sketch pad. The range of brushes and features is excellent and I like that there is such a large market of add-ons (brushes, color palettes etc.) available as well! Exporting artwork is a piece of cake!

Cons

There is a lot to his program, therefore a lot to learn. The learning curve was a little steep for me and I am still learning the ins and outs of how it functions.

4.0

Pros

Honnetement il n'y pas grand chose à modifier, le logiciel est ergonomique et facile d'accès...

### "Drawings and illustration"

April 21, 2022

5.0

I have only used it for a few weeks and I actually liked it too much.

Pros

Procreate is very complete and full of features for drawing.

Cons

The only thing I don't like about the software is the interface of the layers, it could be more clearer.

### "Game Changer"

July 23, 2021

5.0

I have an old school mindset when it comes to drawing, but drawing on the computer has always been a challenge for me. This is the first program that is not only rich with extensive solutions, but is also so incredibly simple to use.

Pros

I am a graphic artist and generally in the past I had drawn my ideas on paper, scanned it and then got to work....many, many hours of work. Since I got Procreate, I have saved myself HUNDREDS of hours of work!

Cons

There isn't much to not like. I am able to easily get fonts, draw and get support!

### "The app you need for your illustrations and paintings. "

August 18, 2023

4.0

Translation: Procreate, for me, still remains one of the best illustration and art creation applications with its highly customizable brush engines.

Pros

The feature I like the most is the time-lapse recording that captures the entire process of creation, which is useful for artists or those who want to share their creations or create tutorials.

Cons

I haven't found any negative points, but the export and sharing feature can be a bit overwhelming because I can't figure out which format to download. However, they do offer multiple formats to choose from.

November 6, 2022

Pros

Me encanta que exista un software donde puedas dibujar a mano sin necesitar photoshop de por medio. Adiós table Wacom + photoshop. Muchas funciones y pinceles a tu disposición + la posibilidad de exportación de videos rápidos y PNG inmediatos

Cons

Aún no he encontrado algo que no me guste más que deberían agregarle un tutorial de uso al inicio, creo que haría que la experiencia de usuario fuese mejor

### "Wonderful software!"

August 10, 2021

5.0

I love this software! I am constantly finding new ways to use it. From animation to creating posters, making text, graphic design. It's wonderful! Highly recommend.

Pros

This software is amazing! So many options, so easy to use, so much potential for graphic design!

Cons

There's certain features I've been unaware of for quite some time, so maybe more instruction would have been helpful. Otherwise I can always use Youtube to watch tutorials so it's not of huge importance.

### "Wife wanted drawing program on her iPad purchased without even thinking"

June 30, 2021

5.0

Pros

It's full featured drawing program for iPad, have tried on both iPad and iPad pro and it's spectacular. Brushes, masks, layers, good canvas size, capability to export in multiple formats.

Cons

one needs to be aware that there is still canvas size limitations depending on the device. Also depending on canvas size procreate starts to limit the amount of layers.

Reason for choosing Procreate

As stated above one time fee vs. monthly.

### "For $10 Can't Beat It"

January 12, 2023

5.0

Pros

I love that it came with pre installed brushes. It's not for what I usually do Graphic Design on, but it's still cool.

Cons

I wish it came with more features for image editing. However, it did better than what I could do to restore an old photo.

September 20, 2021

I have been using this app for months now and the thing that I like about the post is the color picker. Once I upload a sample picture with the color I want. It can pick the exact same color. It saves time.

Cons

Overall I like this software and will continue to use it.

Pros

This software has so many options of things you can create. I'm learning something new everytime I use it.

Cons

I would like tutorials within the software to teach me what all the software can do. I have to watch videos on instagram to see what new tricks and tips are relevant for me.

### "Impressive"

July 29, 2021

5.0

Procreate is great for basic note taking during meetings, but it really excels as a digital painting and drawing tool. Customizable brushes and an intuitive UI make the process of creating digital art really kind of fun and efficient.

Pros

Intuitive, feature rich, detailed brush customization

Cons

Small workflow quirks that I took a long time to get accustomed to.

### "A great tool for artists! "

May 26, 2022

5.0

I am very satisfied with procreate. It is simple to use and helps me create additional designs for social media templates.

Pros

Procreate has a user-friendly interface. There are many useful features for drawing, such as quickshape, which allows you to draw the shape you want, hold it, and it will transform into a perfect shape. Another useful feature is colordrop, which allows you to select any color and drag it onto the canvas to fill a specific drawing. I also like how there are numerous brush options and how color palettes and brushes can be customized.

Cons

The only thing that I don't like about procreate is it consumes the iPad’s battery life.
