SHOULD YOU BUY IT: Yes! It's an improvement as it removes the worst thing about ibis Paint X (the free version): Annoying Advertisements that rot your brain.
The experience is identical to ibis Paint X. Same tools, same ways to draw, same everything. Nothing has changed, meaning if you mastered ibis Paint X you likely have mastered this app too. They didn't steal, though. They're made by the same company.
There are key differences, however: First of all, the toolbox is instantly open and there forever. You get all brushes for free and they're open even after 18 whole hours. No more watching an ad and looking at the weirdest stuff to get your hands on the extra brushes for a limited time.
The other difference is that there are no ads at all. The space opens up to you and everytime you close, you don't get wordscapes or zombies on your face. This might sound like a miniscule change on paper, but trust me, it's a bigger change than you think if you add up all the ads you get on the free version. (You get a lot of ads on the free version.)
In fact, I like the removal of ads because it decreases the time between being in the canvas and having all the tools to seeing your final drawing in more minimalist glory.
Sadly, you still need to pay for more features, as prime mode is more favored than a paid app. Womp womp. If that's not desired for you, pay for prime on ibis Paint X rather than buy this app.
Great App! But…
Honest to god that I’ve been using the Ibis Paint apps for 8 years now, and for good reason. The app is beginner friendly, the YT channel has been helpful with tutorials on art ideas such as stained glass or even anime scene. However, I do have to say that I’m a little disappointed to know that even after I bought the full version, I still have to pay for the premium stuff.
ibisFun
Please add more brushes
Bootiful
Basically what the title means
it’s goos but
i just wish that u did not get to pay too much for some features, but overall it’s a great app
Amazing but...
Can you please make IbisPaintX or IbisPaint available on Windows? Because I cant use other apps comfortably than this one, I havent used my expensive drawing tablet and i havent drawn any single artwork using that tablet. So please make IbisPaint for Windows and Linux next time. And can you make a feature that you can Log in to an account and see all your artworks that have made to that account? This App is really good for me but my Ipadmini3 is kinda getting old. I hope I could still update the app when my Ipad is old though. I Love this app and its my favorite on all the drawing apps. Because of this app I drawed many drawings that expressed my emotions since I’m depressed. And now, my Mom almost know how I feel it now. Thank you IbisPaint!! ♥︎ ( ੭ ˃̶͈̀ ω ˂̶͈́)੭⁾⁾
Why do I still have to pay still
Yes I did got all the brushes and the ads removed but I still have the pay to unlocke everything? I bought this and expected it to be full with everything unlocked and what I got was just that I was very disappointed with the app cause I was really exited for everything to be unlocked but no I still needed to waste my money....
The best drawing application ever.
I’ve been using this app for more than 5 years already and it still hasn’t disappointed me. That’s why, I decided to finally purchase this app. You will not regret buying this.
It’s good
It’s like a cheaper and simpler procreate and it’s so good
