User Reviews

Review sentiment is mixed: Brushes is praised for being beginner-friendly and affordable with capable brush effects, but multiple reviews cite stability issues and gallery import problems that hinder ongoing use.
Pros
  • Beginner-friendly and easy to use, making it approachable for new artists.
  • Good value for the price; affordable with features that help beginners get started.
  • Strong brush capabilities and blending that deliver satisfying artistic results.
Cons
  • Frequent stability and reliability problems (crashes, quitting unexpectedly, blank/empty app states; concerns about ongoing maintenance).
  • Gallery image import/loading issues (can't place images from the gallery; blank page when loading a photo).

Why am I have trouble changing the tips of the drawing or painting effect I want? I can not get brushes to change to a fade tip circle. It keeps switching back to a square which does not give me a smooth airbrush look I’m trying to achieve. Is this a glitch? Am I doing something wrong or did I miss something? I am using an iPad A16 brand new. But this was also a problem on my iPad 6th generation. Why aren’t my brush tips staying when I try to change them?

I already have more robust (albeit pricier) apps and I am not sure why I thought they would have the same features plus something else unattainable, but there’s really no need for this one as it doesn’t offer anything they don’t already offer. If you are just starting out, this is a really good price for what it does do- for example you can use layers and adjust the brushes to make your own brushes. I’m just spoiled. A very decent app for this price point, however.
