## Paintstorm Studio Description
Paintstorm Studio is the first iOS App designed not only for simple sketches, but professional digital painting of any level, genre and technique. Paintstorm helps you to discover the magnificence and unleash the full potential of Apple Pencil and brings you to a whole new level of drawing. Creating an art masterpiece has never been so mobile.
      A major feature of Paintstorm Studio is the array of brushes to choose from. We did our best so that you can easily and quickly adjust the brushes suitable to your painting style.
      Anyone who has ever painted knows it's hard to overestimate the painting tool and the importance of all the seemingly insignificant details. We tried not to miss any of them. Our goal was to create an intuitive, simple-to-use but at the same time functionally powerful tool that brings the process of digital painting to a new level, making it as comfortable as possible.

## Paintstorm Studio Reviews in United States

### ***** "Soft Blender brush and I can see the brush shape"
I really like the Soft Blender brush because you can get a nice smooth blend between colors. Other painting app's blenders smear too much and/or add too much noise and jitter. Which is fine but the lack of any sort of very smooth blender is a glaring omission.

I also like that you can see the brush shape before you start painting. Other painting apps don’t have a brush shape at all, so you’re basically painting almost blind.

Those two little things mean a lot to me because they are a big help. 5 well deserved stars ⭐️

### *---- "App ABR import error? No separation of importing reference images?"
There’s a couple of bugs, the recent update broke the brush import features and you can only use reference images if you open a separate document. Please fix this.
-- H11709, 2024-03-26

### ****- "Great hindered by overly complicated UI"
If the UI were cleaned up, this would awesome.
-- TheUnCoolAid, 2023-09-17

### ***** "Love it"
Paintstorm has a definite place in my production cycle as a professional creative and might be my “go to” for starting new projects. Serious artists, don’t skip this one.
-- Doom Hippo, 2023-07-27

### ***-- "Great app but slow and buggy"
At its core, I’m incredibly impressed. It is the most desktop-like app I’ve worked with outside of a traditional computer environment. I’m running this on a 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 and the larger screen is much needed for all that’s going on with the interface. The good: The paint simulation is as good as anything else out there, including ArtRage, in my opinion. The amount of customization that can be done with the interface is superb. A lot of companies could learn from this design. Creating new documents with canvas textures is a breeze and looks great. Customization of brushes is, again, staggeringly good. There’s almost nothing you can’t change to your liking. The bad: Forget about working at high resolution. The app cannot handle anything beyond mid-rez sizes. At high resolutions, the app slows down to be completely unusable. Even at mid-size resolutions, once the brush gets large, it lags to the point of being unworkable. The app crashes more than any other app I’ve worked with. The interface freezes sometimes and other times certain functions cease to work without a complete restart. Despite the amazingly detailed interface, there are a lot of things that are pretty clunky. Working with a reference image in a separate panel, for example, is so convoluted. I don’t know why I can’t just pull in an image from my photo library like ArtRage. There have been very few recent updates and none over the past few years have addressed the serious lag while using bigger brushes. That leads me to believe it will not be addressed in software. Maybe the M1 and M2 iPads are not having the slowdown problem. With all of these negatives, I still love the app. If the lag issues could be resolved, it would be almost perfect.
UPDATE: After using this app for a few weeks, I have decided to abandon it. While it has some amazing functionality, the crashes and bugs and sluggishness is way too anxiety-inducing.
-- Steven Dempsey, 2023-01-01

### ****- "Attention: program crashes"
First, let me say that I love this app. The interface and number of options are unique and fun to use. The only complaint I have at the moment is the brush lag, where the brush stroke comes behind where the Apple Pencil is on the screen. If this is fixed, I will likely give a five star rating. I don’t think I have seen any updates for this app in a couple of years, at least. Which is a shame, because it is a great app.
-- digitalXcode, 2022-12-21

### ***** "My go to ipad art program"
paintstorm is awesome, lightweight and worth trying even if you use procreate. i have both and i very much prefer paintstorm.
-- nicodizo, 2022-11-04

### ****- "lag"
The speed the brush strokes get put on is not good. To much lag,but will still work with it anyway since this program runs my Bob Ross painting course.
-- musclebound, 2022-04-02

### ***** "Лучшая среди всех!"
Самая лучшая программа для рисования на айпаде, функционала намного больше чем у конкурентов и что самое главное есть возможность устанавливать горячие клавиши на клавиатуре, в других программах такого нет. С клавиатурой это полноценная замена пк для рисования.
-- setis619, 2022-04-01

### ***** "Daimond in the Rough"
This is a wonderful painting app. I use the desktop version and when it was announced Hangmoon had made a version for IPad I was so excited. This app works a lot like the desktop version. Update: Still been using this app for almost a year and still my go to for working on my IPad. Small issue I'm running into with recent updates is memory. I used to have no memory problems before using this app but recently it's lagging and slow due to using up my memory when I've only just started a new painting and no other apps open. I hope this can be fixed. Other than that this program is a gem! Keep up the awesome work.

Update: 03/01/22. Annoying bug I have run into is that the app is auto closing on me every time I try putting a reference image up.  It’s really annoying.  I then have to reopen everything and then once again the app just shuts down on me. Hope you can fix this.
