Artstudio Pro Pros

✓ Exploring and growing in digital artI have been using this app though out my time as a student at college and university, Over the last few years I have explored and expanded my digital drawing skills all thanks to Artstudio.Lewis.fordyVersion: 4.0.9

✓ Better than procreateHaving used both programs a lot I have noticed that Artstudio's brushes feel much better, much more responsive with better acceleration and a much much better line tappering. Also coming from photoshop I feel the UI makes more sense to me..Arturs!Version: 2.2.8

Artstudio Pro Cons

✗ Photo editingI think a small tutorial would help a lot. For some reason resizing images when there is more then one is frustrating and I have not figured it out yet, every time I try it just resizes everything..NO, okayVersion: 2.1.4

✗ Less intuitiveThis pro version is far less intuitive than the original app. Luckily I have kept the old version as it is so much easier to use. I find this UI unfriendly and cumbersome, and the design less appealing. I’m staying with the old version which is still the best art app..Aaaarrggghh!Version: 2.3.23

- added a letter on sidebar sliders - improved Store view - bug fixes.
