Procreate is an iPhone app that allows you to create a masterpiece in a digital form – no pens, paint brushes, paper, or a computer software. With it, you can either edit an existing image or create something from the scratch. This app can bring your creative ideas into a form, far greater than what you have imagined. All it takes is a swipe and a gentle touch and you’ll come up with a canvass that perfectly portrays your heart and mind’s content.

Pour your personal touch on an art that conveys your message. Mix all palettes and blend color harmoniously without a single worry of getting dirty. When the creation is made, you won’t face any signs of trash papers scattered in your room; no paint problems with your clothes; no face lines of any paint. Prior to that, you don’t have to be an architect or an expert designer to create something beautiful.

Negative Feedback About Procreate App

The app is a complex application with too many buttons and tools. You might be getting problems with its usage at first. This probably not a problem with long-time designers, but for newbies, it can be. You’ll have to study all the features to make the most out of it.

Another seemingly-problem with this app is that it has limited features. This is attributed to those who are highly-skilled designers. Once you have mastered all its tools, you might feel dissatisfied. The app could be even better. But still, it is way better than other designing apps today.
