User Reviews

Users praise Sketchbook for being free or affordable with no ads, a large toolset, and offline, beginner-friendly use. Recurrent drawbacks center on monetization shifts toward paid features, privacy permission prompts, occasional device performance problems, and save/export reliability issues, plus missing advanced brush capabilities. Overall it’s solid for basic work but frustrating for users seeking more advanced tools or stable saving behavior amid monetization changes.
Pros
  • Free to use with many features available without paying
  • One-time purchase option for premium (not a subscription)
  • No ads
  • Large, varied brush/tool set with capable features
  • Easy to use and beginner-friendly with simple setup
Cons
  • Shift to a paid/premium model that reduces free features and changes the UI
  • Privacy/permissions prompts (storage access and photo/video access)
  • Performance issues on some devices (e.g., runs slowly on tablets)
  • Saving/export issues (saved work can be blank or unrecoverable)
  • Lack of advanced brush features (textures, liquify/alpha lock) and brush engine improvements

Super fun easy to use, I've had it for 3 years. The tools and colors have such a variety. My favorite app for my art class. The zooming feature works extremely well. You can import images, make complementary colors, use the ruler feature and make perfect circles/ovals along with straight lines. I have it on my phone and computer, they both work great. This app should be deffinetly more well known. :)

I've been using this app for years and it used to be great but I hate the new watermark feature that crops up if you use more than 2-3 layers
