User Reviews

Zen Brush is praised for its elegant design and effective kanji/handwriting workflow, plus a satisfying drawing experience with SPen support. However, a dominant downside across reviews is the pay-to-unlock model: undo and many core features are hidden behind a paid upgrade, with several users calling it overpriced or misleading. A minority report reliability issues after upgrades. Overall, the app delivers a beautiful, capable drawing tool for the right price, but its cost and paywall strategy limit broad appeal.

Pros

Beautiful, minimalist design and UI.
Excellent for kanji practice and handwriting workflows (write, check accuracy, then clear).
Solid drawing experience with SPen support, including pressure sensitivity and brush layering.
Wide range of brush widths and tones, with color layering for dynamic sketches.
Appealing to both beginners and advanced artists; enjoyable and satisfying to use.

Cons

Undo and many core features are behind a paid upgrade (paywall for undo).
Pricing model criticized; upgrades can feel expensive and some features were moved behind a paywall, causing frustration or feelings of being misled.
Some users report reliability issues after purchasing/upgrading (the app doesn’t work as expected post-purchase).

Recent reviews

Though ît has definite limitations, and there is Zen Brush 3 , I just feel compelled to shout out this app. It's really, really good at what it does. I've made some quite lovely art with it, and remain quite smitten. Though I must admit that I'm also very curious about the missing Zen Brush 2 app? ,,,,, More brushes and paper would be A+ ! But a solid, fun art application!!
