User Reviews for Sketchar: AR Drawing App

Great idea. Needs to be a lot better.

The concept of this app is great and it has a lot of great features. However, it is too easy to just trace and not learn to draw. My biggest issue is that if I spend time coloring and shading but can’t finish in one session, when I come back the colors are super splotchy and all of the coloring/shading has to be redone. I’ve also noticed that they AR feature requires you to be a distance from paper that is not feasible for you to see the screen of your phone and draw at the same time. Lastly, the advertisements for you to pay for a subscription are very in-your-face, too often repeated, and very obnoxious. But if you want to practice “tracing” in a learn-to-draw tutorial and can finish in one session, it is good practice. I don’t think I’ll be paying for the full version anytime soon.

Awesome drawing tutor

This app is awesome! I love the AR aspect of it so I can see where I should be drawing to learn how to draw better with a tutor right on the page. Only thing a little frustrating though is that I think it would be cool if this app had a zoom function. But instead of zooming, I was thinking if it allowed iPhones to be able to go into the .5x zoom so it’s easier to set up the phone a good distance away from the paper and still have the phone be close to the paper because it’s .5x zoom. I think with that function it will make getting the whole page in the frame much easier and manageable. Thanks for the great app!

Love this app! But one thing :/

So I am a really good artist and I’m kinda young too but I thought I needed practice so I decided I would download a app to maybe give me a little more help with some things. And I came across this app! So I downloaded it and found a cool looking lesson so I clicked on it and clicked on AR. I don’t know if you had to buy AR.? But I tried to click on paper and it didn’t work. So I clicked on it like 3 or 4 more times, still nothing. So I tried to click the back arrow, it didn’t work. So I had to exit out the app.. I love this app so much but I would love it even more if I could do AR.. So please!! Fix this glitch! Or just tell me if you have to buy pro to click paper.😂 So please help me out here please ❤️❤️

Great app, moneys in the way.

So I downloaded it. Even after reading all the reviews... and I should have listened to them. The dev response person/bot says that animals are free, but they are locked for pro. Even though they say it’s is, it is not. Molang doesn’t exist... nor does grinch. You only get one free lesson. This now brings the question. Why not just charge 5.99$ for the app? No. You must pay 5$ monthly. Great concept! great design! But money has gotten in the way. I still give it a 3 star even after being this disappointed, I mean it promise a few free drawings. But I ended up with only one. So again good job on the app, just money and a bit of greed has gotten in the way sadly. I do hope they respond to this to clear this up. Because they basically lied about what is free and not. Unless you are willing to pay 5$ monthly, I will not recommend this app.

Pretty good app but needs work.

I downloaded this app because I am a terrible drawer and I was looking for a way to learn. The app works surprisingly well, but has a few issues. The tracking is very finicky. If you do not hold the phone perfectly still and have near perfect the imagine will jitter all over the page. When using the cross feature, if your shadow touches one of the markers it will also make the image warp all over the page. That means you have to draw at odd angles in order to avoid this. I understand that is an issue with my lighting and not the app, but it shouldn’t happen with such a small amount of shadow. The app is still pretty neat, but is not even close to being worth nearly thirty dollars. Subscriptions don’t interest me, because I would much rather own something and pay for it in full. If the price was lowered to ten dollars for the lifetime ownership that would make up for its drawbacks, but I feel that a 28 dollar app should work flawlessly almost all the time.

Ads during drawing time should be taken out

I have this issue every time i use this app. I draw something (mainly anime from my camera roll) and right in the middle of drawing, and ad pops up. After i click no to the ad, guess what happens. It kicks me out and i lost all progress from drawing. I try to do it again and line up the lines, which almost never works properly its always distorted somehow, and it all just happens again. I only get about 2-3 minutes IF THAT of drawing time before i have to restart the whole process. My lighting is perfect, i have a clamp to hold my phone so its positioned right every time, i have lines to hold the page as to not twist the image too much, but this constant ad wall is what’s killing me. If you are going to put ads, put them BEFORE or AFTER the artist is drawing. Its like taking a painters canvas mid piece and asking them if they wanna buy something, and when they shoo you you place the canvas on the ground and leave, making them have to pick it up, reposition it and line themselves back up with their focal point. Other than that the app is great, just slightly unusable for free users.

Seems like a great idea but not dependable

As an artist, I’ve been experimenting with this on and off for a few weeks and it’s a great idea IF you can get some random anchor to be permanently in your drawing. Drawing on anything larger than an A4 is out of the question, as you can’t draw your image b/c you’re too far away for proportion, (fully extended arm and pencil still doesn’t reach) then you get closer to touch your paper and it’s lost anchors and looses everything you just calibrated (as it’s white paper with no anchors). I’ll stick with my projector. It has one purpose, and that is for large scale tracing for murals and that’s it. If you are actually using this to “learn to draw” you probably won’t ever improve. Drawing from scratch builds your skill and the necessarily parts of your brain and hand-trust to draw, this will just keep you in tracer category. Great for kids or using it see mistakes in your drawing.

Great for Quarantine

I found this app last night when I was searching for something to teach me how to draw better. I am thrilled this exists and can’t believe I’ve been on my iPad Pro for five years and never found an app like this. What can I say; it’s like having an art class, except you’re in quarantine. Totally worth the 20 bucks. If you really wanna learn how to draw it’s worth the 20 bucks. If you already know what you’re doing and you understand basic shapes, then it’s not worth the 20 bucks because you can already do that. I am very happy and can’t wait to sit down and draw again today.Now that doesn’t mean this is just for beginners. This app can do a lot more than what I just said and you should probably go read other peoples reviews but for my purposes this is pretty awesome.

It needs lots of work.

Use this app because I love drawing, but it has a whole lot of issues. Number one where am I supposed to put the Phone, I understand this app is mostly for adults but, I a 12 year old can’t draw with one hand. Number two I can’t draw with my window open, the lights have too be on for the Image to show correctly. Three is I am a kid, I don’t have enough money too pay for Subscription, and All the free stuff is just cartoons and hard detailed stuff. I find that there’s no Medium level free stuff. I understand that You tried hard on this but it’s not that good. Fourth is that it takes a few minutes for it to detect the paper, and I have pretty ok lighting. I’ve tried to draw even on my wall but it doesn’t work because I cannot Hold the paper, I hate that fact. I’ve grown up drawing always holding the paper with one hand so this bugs me a bunch. I got this app yesterday and All these problems and I’ve seen more problems than these, I would be happy if you explained how to use the app more. I haven’t drawn one thing yet because of the angles and my messy one hand drawings. I understand apps like this take quite a long time to perfect but Your app is kinda on the correct level, just going the wrong way. Anyways! thank you for reading this review!

Creative

I love the creativity. Some feedback about it though is the practicality of such a set up. I’m sure the developers are working on it. I have a small gimbal so that I could have my hands free to draw easily, but the distance from the camera to the paper is far so there is obstruction to actually freely draw since I have to look through my iPhone has the viewfinder. Another issue I kept running into is that as soon as I place my hand within the frame to start drawing the focus of the guides are distorted because the camera needs to fully see the frame of the paper. Again the developers probably see the drawback and there are more updates to come from Apple for ARkit to for better detection. Overall I love the idea of this app and I hope that it develops even more! As of right now the simplest way is to literally just draw the outlines of an image yourself. P.s. I also love how the drawing process is step by step so that is very intuitive!
