ProtoSketch – Graphic Design

This is an excellent app for design work. My main frustration comes in the last stages of completing designs as by that time the app has lots to do and slows right down. In particular, it struggles when I make a working layer partially transparent. I am using an iPad Pro. Looking forward to more updates and fixes!

This is so close to be a legitimately work-changing app, the interface is incredibly well-thought out, the features are amazing, the problem is so many bugs. You can’t export to any format without the app crashing, you can’t import from any source without the app crashing, and it randomly deletes layers. I’ve bought the full version and am hoping against hope that my purchase is justified and these bugs are fixed, as this has the potential to make me leave my laptop at home and use this for literally all my vector needs.

For example: 1. Make Frequently used canvas sizes show up on top. The size list is cluttered with presets I don't use. 2. Please make it possible to import from iCloud Drive. 3. Please make it a bit easier to select overlapping projects. You have the shift and alt keys which can be very useful.. 4. Yeah and when side penal is showing please don't hide the shift and alt

Can't wait to see the app mature!

idk what such a developers who give up on app like this for me to be honest since they stopped updating this app i give up on all my works what kind of dev are you guys so many designers pay for this app just to you give up on it. hope you’ll considering my review as a reminder for this great beautiful app. peace and love

Essential.

There’s a bug or two with selecting colors, but otherwise they have pretty much nailed UI with respect to how I was to sketch on the iPad: tolerance is front and center, so details can be made with no auto smoothing, and long lines can be made with more smoothing. The virtual keys also mean I can work with expected shortcuts. I use it for sketching only though, not sure how it works for other things. Wish they would update

JPEG option downloads as png and it takes a lot of waiting and many tries to get any of the file versions to save to Google Drive. I’m using a 2019 iPad Pro...

Importing photos in Protosketch no longer works for iPad IOS 13 the latest. Says it can't finf them although i have permissions turned on in settings. This is crucial for me, can you please do an update? Some of the other things about importing symbols does not work but only oartially & often selects the wrong image either. Although the layers menu is there, the navigation doesn't fully work, visible invisible only works once & then freezes. Sorry about my posting here but there seems no other way to contact you. Please fix - otherwise a fantastic app. i fdo see i can save but first you have to allow photo to access - but it still doen't work for importing.

I adore this app for one thing, it is the ONLY one I have found that has the functions I need to use it for line art. I have found any vector apps that either allow you to draw paths with a pen and then add strokes/effect in such way to use for line art or let you draw with different brushes but then edit the paths. I would love to see the feature added that would allow adding different brushstrokes to paths, but at least with this program I can use the pressure sensitive brush and then edit the path. Biggest flaw is that the export or “open in”/“open with” process almost never works. I’ve done every format and method of exporting and i have to do it about ten times to get one file successfully exported and so far the only method that has worked was putting in Dropbox as a png. Everything else goes through the flow as if it’s completed but the file never actually shows up. Certainly makes using it for my line art a lot harder. And it seems like this has been a problem since it’s inception and has yet to be addressed. I really REALLY hope this gets fixed.
