About this app

Convert your device into a digital sketchbook with more than 80 paint brushes, smudge, fill and an eraser tool. This fast and intuitive painting and drawing application will unlock the full power of your imagination. With support for pressure sensitive pens (like Samsung's S Pen) your device will be transformed into a real canvas.

Important: this is a free application with advanced features requiring a pro license in-app purchase. Single licence purchase will activate all devices associated with your Google account.

Features (some functions require pro license):
• High performance (GPU accelerated) paint engine
• Canvases up to 6144x6144 with 50 layers*
• Stylus pressure support
• Pressure simulation for touches†
• 100+ brushes and tools (including smudge tool and gradient fill)
• Create custom brushes from imported images
• Selection and selection masks
• Layer clipping mask
• 10 layer filters (HSV adjust, brightness & saturation, color curves and more)
• Material design inspired, fast, fluid, intuitive and accessible user interface
• Import and export supports PNG, JPG and PSD (Photoshop Document)
• NVIDIA DirectStylus support
• Palm rejection - no more accidental zooming and panning when drawing†

*) depending on device and available memory
†) some devices are incompatible with pressure simulation and palm rejection


You can paint, sketch and draw with ease thanks to fast and fluid brush engine. ArtFlow aims to replace your physical sketchpad and become universal art studio type application for Android™.

I personally enoy this app. it's perfect for my type of art style and isn't very complex. Edit: (I also removed a bunch of stuff) they took away multiple things that are nessecities and put purchasements over them. as a play pass member, i dont have to really deal with it. but i can imagine the pain of other artists that dont have play pass. i know this is a free game, but don't do this. or at least lower the amount of purchases in this. you can do better.

I bought the Full version because this app allowed me to do everything I imagined needing and more, there's plenty, but it reverted me to the free version and prompted me to buy the full version on sale and watch an ad again, that's really, really annoying, and should never happen when you buy an Art medium, I draw when I'm in particular moods and part of it is an expression incorporating certain times, feelings, etc. It's frustrating to have the full capacity taken away despite purchasing.

Best art app hands down. I've tried a bunch of other apps but you either have to pay after a few days, or the ui and tools are trash. This app lets you use most of the features for free by watching 1 ad, so nice. Eventually they gave me a pricedrop thing so I bought it. I've had a phenomenal experience so far and the amount of stuff I can do within the app is incredible. From multiple layers to selection tools, it's really quite great and easy to use.
