Tracing Buddy: Drawing Grid

I found this App about three years ago and use it every day since then. It’s simple but effective. You can have your composition problems solved in a bit. It’s versatile and easy to use. A must have for the ones that whant to improve their drawings skills.

5 stars n getting better

Regular updates, simple to use and reliable developers who are quick to respond with any support.

This app is fantastic. I’ve had it on my phone for five minutes and i absolutely love it. If you’re looking for state-of-the-art, crazy modern, complex, super sophisticated, then it might not be for you. What I love about it is that it’s so well-designed — the concept is brilliant. I’ve been doing the grid technique, old-school, by hand, for four decades … And in one fell swoop this app has enabled me to skip all that and do it directly, digitally, right on the photo on my phone. Bravo!!

This is the worst app I ever got. The instructions to use it are almost non-existent, and when I tried to get help they sent me videos that were not based on the screens I had. Terrible.

This is an awesome app for pencil drawing for watercolor…and the price is awesome. I would actually pay a little more for the lifetime ($20?), but really appreciate that is affordable. My favorite feature is the ability to tap of a square and isolate it for drawing. THIS IS AWESOME and sets the app apart from all the rest. I think my mind tries to fill in if I’m looking at the whole picture. For a long time I didn’t understand how to get back to the whole grid, so I thing a back arrow would be helpful. I finally figured out you just swipe. I would like the ability to crop the photo inside the app so I don’t have to go into Photos and crop the original. That would be a great feature. I do think getting a photo into the program and starting a new drawing is more difficult than it could be. Look at how Sketchbook and Procreate handle this with a gallery (and all other drawing programs). Maybe use icons instead of the words and plus sign…they run together and it’s hard to tap the right one on a phone. Maybe add a quick tutorial on that for now? I just wiped out a previous drawing by importing a photo over it. That said, this is hands-down the best app out there.

I lost my old iPhone, and just got a new one, so had to manually download all my old apps and subscriptions. I’m paid up for a year so I just am looking to sign in, but the only prompts I can find involve me buying again. Is there a way I can just sign in on my new phone that has the same number as the old?

It’s bad

I like it

I just purchased the lifetime value because I was so pleased with the ‘freebie’ portion. There is a small learning curve but worth the few minutes.
