Some Brushes don’t work
I was so excited to get the app but when i got it some brushes didn’t
Work some did work but were so small even at max size

Not worth it
I am struggling to draw on this app. I have a pen to write with on my phone and it works on all the apps except this one. I can eve press buttons with my pen on this app but O can’t draw with it, it doesn’t make sense!
I am really upset because I expected a lot and now the pen I have doesn’t even work on the app and this app is really expensive.

Love the app but latest update keeps crashing.
Every time I try move an object around with snapping on, it crashes instantly. Unusable for me right now. I’ve used Procreate for two years and no issues so hope it gets fixed soon.

Honest review
Let’s face it, I’m too poor to afford an iPad. So this app has me painting on my phone like a muppet. Dreaming, praying, that one day I might an iPad of my very own.

Query on undo function if any
Hi
I’m a fashion sketch artist and whenever I make an error I like to click on the undo option to fix an error I’ve made. I can’t see that in the app. Does procreate pocket have that functionality? Thanks

Bad app
This app won’t even let me draw when it is lent for drawing!

Refund
The app isn’t allowing me to draw,I even deleted it and reinstalled it,that didn’t even help.It’s so glitchy,I’m so disappointed that I wasted my money on this,so please give me my refund.

Absolutely awesome!
There are endless possibilities to create, a Buch of brushes that would help make you make all tipes of art, from cartooning to realism. I recommend any day. Completely worth your few bucks. Thanks!😸

Refund
Hey my daughter was really disappointed in how the app was so hard to work out and she spent all her money on it to and we wanted a refund but we couldn’t find where could you please possibly get us a refund? This app is really terrible and am I shocked that you trick kids into wanting it but then it does not deliver. It’s like you are stealing money from people for your broken app. This app is not compatible with her device despite you stating that it is, then she pays for it only for it to not be compatible. We would like our money back,thank you!

😊

Really good
This app is fun to use I’ve used it for one of my online art projects and you can create lots of different artworks and I like that they are so many different brushes that you can use and it is not that expensive so 10/10 definitely recommend 😊

This is so bad
I bought this app and it doesn’t even work for me! I CANT EVEN GET A REFUND! IT WAS SO EXPENSIVE

Deleted my art
I was just drawing something for tiktok and my app keeps closing randomly and as I grouped my stuff it closed and deleted my whole piece and it took me 4 days to make. I have disappointed that you have made this a feature that if you close your art work you can’t undo with two fingers. I don’t think it’s fair what happened to me and what probably happened to a few other people 😭💔😡
2020-06-12
Amazing
It is so good to use for logos sketches and all sorts of stuff
Love it
❤️❤️❤️❤️

Aspec ration changed suddenly
Hi there developers, I recently downloaded procreate pocket on my iPad mini 2 and the display was full screen. A few days later I opened the app and the screen was like an iPhone. I recently sync my iPhone to my iPad, has that changed the setting? I updated the app. Still no fix. Please help. Thanks
