A great community! Everyone is so positive and it is a great way to get your art out there. The layout makes sense and it is easy to use, it is easy to filter the art you want to see, from those that use a certian median, to new artists, to most recent pieces, to most liked pieces. Everyones art gets noticed and recognized on here, from begginners to advanced artists. It is a great confidence boost and creativity stimulator and it is so fun to see everyones creative, original ideas!

Sometimes it takes forever to load from opening the app and I HATE the way it asks you to edit the photo after you take it for posting. It forces you to have a square photo and it will not let you zoom in a lot. I love the idea behind this app, and I especially love the "ideas" button that comes with every prompt. It is a 50/50 kinda thing, so I give it 3 stars.

A wonderful app if you find yourself having art block. It helped me get back into sketching daily because I found some prompts unique and challenging- in a good way, the kind that make you think outside of the box. The app also offers different challenges if you find yourself stuck. There are all sorts of levels of artists here, and the community is very kind and engaging. I do wish the chat feature wasn't only for gold membership since long comment threads can feel a little disorganized.

I like this app. I think one of my biggest struggles is deciding what to draw and this challenges you to interpret new ideas everyday. I do get a little obsessive about seeing what people like which can be a little bit of a bummer for average-y artists like myself but that is just my fault not the app. Overall, it has been great and very motivational to practice making art!

I really admire this app. I have met so many incredible people with absolutely stunning art. Some of it is downright jaw dropping. My only downvote is that you can only participate in a challenge for 24-48 hours total. Then that's it. There also isn't an option to just go into challenges specifically for your interest. Like I'm into fantasy&elves. But most of these challenges are random words like "flip," or "bath." While I adore this app, if they wanted to tweak it up, that would be my advice.

Great prompts. I love seeing other people's entries, too. Even browsing the sample ideas and stuff they offer is fun because it's just looking at more art. There's limited interaction and what is there is always supportive or helpful. The community is full of artists there for the sake of art and learning. No drama. Life's been unexplainably bad for me and art is my escape, but it's been so bad that I couldn't even do that. This app has helped get a little bit of me back.

Good app for adding art and following prompts, not so good as a social platform. I receive notifications, but when I click on them it doesn't take me to the comment. Rather, it drops me off on the prompt screen and I have no way to get back to the message without finding the image i commented on by scrolling through the gallery. This is far from ideal.

This app absolutely rocks. I used to have such bad art block that i would go days, even weeks, without drawing a single thing. This app changed that. With just a one word prompt, it reminds me of the book "A Doodle a Day". The layout is simple and easy to navigate. Although it is free, ads are not popping up left and right unlike other mobile apps. 10/10 100% reccomend.

I'm loving this app so far, it's great daily practise + inspiration for when you don't know what to draw. I like that there are tutorials for different mediums and skill levels. I think it would be really cool if there was a way to tag your art besides the medium used so you can look at specific things. Alongside a tagging system, blacklisting would also be nice. Then people could have more freedom with what they draw while others can blacklist their triggers.

This app is truly amazing. I love the drawing prompts, the nice community, seeing other people's art, and everything in between. My only problem with it is that you can only do 1 or 2 prompts at a time and I've heard this is a big issue and has caused people to delete it. If we were able to draw more prompts at once somehow that would be amazing! Just a thought 🤷♀️ thanks for the amazing app!

Pretty great app! I've made some good art using this. If you're someone that draws for other people then this might inspire you. Some of the prompts are a little out there, but you can view the weeks list of prompts to see what you like. They're not super pushy about you uploading a prompt every day. There is a wide skill range and almost everyone gets at least a few likes when they post.

Great community. Great art. It's all about learning and improving, and it has people at every skill level. I have yet to see anything but encouragement. The interface is clean and sleek. I bought Gold just to support this app (which is a one time payment btw, NOT a subscription). I don't use this everyday, but when I need some inspiration it can be a lot of fun to explore and participate in.

I like it. There is some thought put into the daily prompts or at least the algorithm used to generate them. I haven't seen any prompts to draw something like "serendipitous". The functionality is good. But, there is no function to share drawings I like. It's strange that an artist can like and report their own work to the moderators. Why are those options but not the one thing that'd promote the app? It also doesn't send notifications when artist I follow uploads an image.

I truly love this app and it's sparked my love for drawing again. The app keeps track of your streak (days you've drawn consistently), so it makes you feel accomplished for keeping it up. I'm going on 70+ days. There is a wide variety of themes so there's something for everyone. It's a positive environment, espicially for younger artists who need that kind of helpfulness and compassion. The community is super supportive and are a good place to seek tips from. Overall, 100% recommend this app.

I ❤️ LOVE this app. I basically couldn't draw anything until after I recovered from Covid. Suddenly I can replicate an inspiration. This app has artists that use all types of media (pencil, computer, chalk, watercolor, etc). They give you a prompt for the day, and you can draw the actual word out something inspired by the word. Then you share it and people can see and comment on your art. I love the variety of both the prompts for inspiration, and seeing how others interpret the same word.

The positive environment is awesome. Was always too afraid to really show any art but this makes it easy and comfortable. Also allows for easy viewing of the days artwork from other prospective artists The only thing ill say is that i wish there was a better search engine in app, for users and art as in, to look up a certain date or topic. Thats my only complaint, but its honestly not even that big of a deal. The rest of the app and its environment is totally worth it. Would certainly reccommend

This is similar to Reddit's /r/SketchDaily except in app form. The best thing for beginners learning to draw is simply putting a pencil down on paper and making a mark. This app can provide not only motivation, but simple prompts to answer that "I don't know what to draw" question. The interface is simple to understand and navigate. The description says the app will provide tutorials but I haven't seen any. Clicking the ideas button only brings up a simple Google image search for the days topic

Love it. One prompt a day, and you submit art. What I like the best is that it asks you what materials you use (like watercolor), and then it sorts out the art by materials. You can see all the entries or just the ones that use a specific medium. It gets me to at least think about art each day even if I dont submit a piece. They really just want you to keep doing an art. It's also a good app to turn to if you are stuck and need a break.

I've been having a great time with this app, but the recent update has caused me to lower my score due to several factors 1. They got rid of dark mode 2. You HAVE to watch an ad in order to submit your daily sketch, which is rather tedious. 3. The future prompts future no longer keeps the future prompts you just watched an ad for up upon leaving the app, causing you to have to do it again. It feels like this app is going in a worrying direction, and I don't know if I can keep using it.

Opened this for the first time in months and it's a tragic story. You can just see all the sellout taking place. It has a really simplistic look but navigation is a nightmare. Every click has an ad, & key features are just gone. I was excited to see what happened here, since the app widget turned white, but it seems like this really intricate art sharing app did a full factory reset. Major downgrade from what it was.
