"Intuitive, powerful raster illustration app that doesn't require a monthly subscription"
5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

The tool is incredibly flexible, allowing for a wide variety of illustration styles utilizing realistic and responsive brushes. Built-in animation is an added bonus, and the cherry on top is that you pay once and never, ever have to give them another cent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

The only real drawback is that it doesn't work for creating vector graphics. Adobe has a similar app that does, but Adobe lacks many of the drawing features (line and shape snapping come to mind) that make sketching and concept ideation fly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The perfect app for all kinds of illustration and non-vector short animation"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

I like the ease of use and the user experience.

I have been using design apps for 15 years now, but Procreate has been the one I have had the easiest time learning how to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

With illustrations that have more layers and are heavier, it crashes very, very often. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"My favourite app ever!"
5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

It's cheap to download. They're FANTASTIC at keeping the app up to date and are always adding new features and listening to feedback. I'm looking forward to getting a newer iPad purely because I want to be able to use more layers. I LOVE this app! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

I'd love to have more layers available. I know this is something I will be able to get with a newer iPad though.

I would love it if I could organise my files better within the app. It would be AMAZING to have sub-folders.

In an ideal world, I'd like a more streamlined way of backing up my files to the cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Hands down the best tablet drawing app around"
5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

Where to start with Procreate? Inside this app, first-time artists and experienced professionals will find tools that can help take their art to the next level. It doesn't take long to discover the tools and even master them to create stunning designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

Honestly, there isn't much I don't love about the app. If I had to be picky, some of the pencil brushes could be smoother on it. And if they could add a vector brush like Adobe Fresco, that would take it to the next level for sure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Procreate"
5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

I like how there are so many different brush options to create art. It is such a fun and convenient way to make art no matter where you are. I also love how you are able to use this app for animating as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

Sometimes the app becomes really slow if you have been using it for a long period of time at once. This also happens if you have a lot of files in your library. It is also a little frustrating that only certain iPads can have the latest version of Procreate, because if I use a different device and want to share that drawing with another device, it doesn't always work.

"Procreate"
5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

There are an array of brushes to choose from which help to achieve a specific look within your art. The added bonus is the ability to share a video of your process from beginning to end. And the ability to animate within the app is a huge plus! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

There are no options to create vector art within the program. I understand that it is a raster program, however, it would be nice to have the option to create vector paths much like you can do with the raster program, Photoshop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It is the best app for designing, drawing, or passing the time."
5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

The flexibility it provides to create from scratch or from any level. I love the color palette. Also, the ability to create a color palette from an image. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

It's a bit complicated to use at first because of the number of tools and commands it has. It can become frustrating. I would like to see a manual from Procreate so that users don't have to look for information elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Procreate is the best and most complete illustration app on iPad"
5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

The brushes that come integrated in the app make working on your illustration much easier and add unique effects. Also, the feature that allows you to work and apply your art to 3D models is pretty cool and makes them come to life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

When you scale your art it pixelates it and it's pretty hard to avoid. Also they could improve the guides tool to be a little more advanced like Photoshop's. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Procreate - Fantastic Digital Art Tool"
5/5
What do you like best about Procreate?

The possibilities are endless with what you can create with various mediums. I can paint, I can draw, I can create animations. This is truly a great product to have paired with my ipad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Procreate?

It's not intuitive with some of the features. Things feel hidden because you don't know that is where you should be looking for them. Tutorials outside the system will help, but it should have a better user experience/layout for information. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
