The app is really good and really fun to use, but there's a bit of a bug. When you use any brush with maximum size, zoom out to draw (for example the sunset or the sky) the app starts lagging. After 20 seconds the app crashes and closes itself. It is definitely not my phone, because it runs every game really good and never lagged since this time. Please, Sketchbook, fix this bug. Everything else works completely fine!

I've used this app since I was about 13 (23 now) and it's really intuitive for me, and the pro version isn't some subscription! It's a one time purchase, has been since I got it when I was 13. The desktop one is a one time $20 too. I'm not the most tech savvy, so idk what making and editing brushes is really like, but I really like this app, and the pro is definitely worth the couple bucks.

Sketchbook is good for a real art like digital art experience, which is what I like. I used the demo ver of this app on my laptop 5years ago and I loved it and wish I can love the app too, so please deal with the file corruption issue completely asap. I'll be waiting 🥰 (may,2024) So the file corruption issue seems to be resolved now! (nov,2024) I keep coming back to this app. Tried other art apps with real art vibes, this is the most stable on android. Not perfect, but fairly reliable.
