Procreate Reviews & Product Details

The ability to customize brushes, create brushes, add brushes, is absolutely amazing! This is the most realistic tablet drawing experience I have ever had. This tool has helped my workflow and helped me create murals, packaging design elements, logo and branding projects as well as personal projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is a bit of a learning curve. The simplicity of the tools makes them feel a bit hidden. However, there are plenty of free tutorials online to help you learn your way around the app. Additionally, I prefer to design vector artwork so if I am using illustrations or lettering from Procreate, I often bring it into Adobe Illustrator to vectorize it and complete my art there. I have found this to be pretty easy, though and I don't loose much texture or detail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Procreate evolves responsively with user needs and already contains so many tools familiar to people using other industry standard software. It's also compatible with a range of devices, which makes it more accessible to people on a variety of budgets. I've recommended procreate to several of my colleagues, and everyone I've touched base with agrees that the program has improved their process. It's an incredibly easy program to pick up overall.

I think that the brush selection could probably be improved. Many of the limitations I had when first using the program have been addressed in updates, such as cropping and resizing. There are some ways that I feel integration with programs such as Adobe could be smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have used drawing tablets like Wacom before to create illustrations, but it was difficult to adapt to watching the drawing happen on screen while your tablet is blank. I use an iPad Pro to draw with Procreate and it has been going well so far. I've had the app for about a month now. It's great to draw directly onto the screen and your hand doesn't affect the drawing except for using the undo feature or eyedropper tool. If you used free drawing apps before, the tools are pretty similar and easy to learn. The user interface is very clean and user-friendly. What I also like is how you can export your illustration into multiple different files and formats. For example, PNG and JPGs, or even editable files like PSD. You can also send easily send them to an email address or airdrop them to your computer, phone, or another iPad (must be an apple product to use the airdrop feature). You also get this app for a great price of just $10. You don't need to pay a monthly fee like how you for Adobe products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike is how some tools are pretty new to users, and how there isn't a tutorial for the more difficult tools. I had to spend a good amount of time watching YouTube tutorials to find out what those tools did and how to use them. I also dislike how the app is only available on the Apple store, and not available for android products. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pretty much built for iPad and Apple Pencil. Difficult to use without exactly that setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s a true to life drawing experience, the range of tools is seemingly endless all for an affordable price. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Really don’t have many negatives. I guess being tied to an iPad could be seen as a downside to some. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how easy it is to learn and how they give you brushes that you can choose from to start when you first get the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I dislike how there isn’t really a tutorial so you are kind of left trying to figure it out on your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that I have so many different mediums at my fingertips. I can experiment with different painting textures and it’s great for on the go drawing on my iPad. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
