Both Ibis Paint and Ibis Paint X are top notch art apps for mobile devices. I have nothing but appreciation for the existence of this app. This is an ad-free version, so you get more screen space due to the lack of an ad banner and can use all the brushes without watching ads, which is a huge bonus. But it is 10 times better with premium. If you want to see the full potential of this app, even the X version is great with the subscription! There's no other mobile art app that can compete!

The no ads thing is nice, but I just made one of my best art pieces and I misclicked and deleted it when I tried to save it one more time 😭 I care for my speedpaints very much, and it made me so sad. Other than that, it is very good when making art and starting as a beginner. I do really like this app, but I've had so many experiences where things would crash, delete, not save, or save strangely. of course, a lot of it can be user error, and everything has its pros and cons, it just bothers me.

Pretty good, though I did switch over to another drawing app for its different sketch settings.. I still come back to this one since ibis does have A LOT more brushes to choose from -- One thing I'd like to see in future updates is the ability to import audio from the device for animation artwork. It's still an amazing app btw

etc.
