  As someone who's been drawing with sketchbook every day for a year, this is like finding out the gym youve been going to is haunted

  The panic and frustration of getting an ad that only leads to the app store is such a mood, HOW HAVE ADS GOTTEN EVEN MORE MISERABLE

  Little PSA about Fresco, adobe actively trains their Firefly AI model on all the content you make on there. Which is stated in their creative cloud TOS, by using creative cloud you grant adobe the rights to train Firefly AI models on any content uploaded to creative cloud. Fresco uses creative cloud by default with no way to change it to only save locally. So just a heads up, Freco is free, because they’re making up for that loss by using your art to train AI.

  My goat IBIS got the praise it deserves! When I started digital 6 years ago I went through most of these apps and Ibis as well. I genuively love it SO MUCH. The team behind it is constantly working on new stuff and it&apos;s so nicely interactive and nice to use. BTW, if you&apos;re left handed, you can move the bar with tools to the left in the settings. Also the thing about the adds - it used to be 1 add for 24 hours of free stuff, but they changed it to 4 hours. I personally don&apos;t mind it. Drawing that long without a break isn&apos;t healthy anyway.

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DA6cGrAIhLE&amp;t=38">0:38</a> this app uses to be called Autodesk sketchbook and was originally made for Samsung/android devices and was added to iPad. It functions a lot better on android devices

  if you know what you&apos;re doing, ibis paint actually has a lot of &quot;professional&quot; stuff in it, like reference window, highly specific brush setting adjustments, custom brush png, HSV adjustment, gradation map, dynamic textured canvas, vector tools, screen tone, etc, and they&apos;re always adding more frequently.<br><br>The only issue is they don&apos;t know what to put behind a paywall and what not to put behind a paywall, the free/adlock/paid system makes NO SENSE, this is coming from someone who prefers ibis over other free apps. Square tool? free; rounded square tool? paid.

  When I saw the Chinese ad, I thought: &quot;Why is she getting Chinese ads?&quot; After some digging, I found out that you were actually Cantonese, which surprised me, you didnt have any accent in your voice at all, I totally thought you were a native. You got a great voice too, love from Taiwan!
