YoDraw

A full drawing studio for your tablet.

What's inside

Everything the demo already gives you.

The free version is the whole app — every brush, every layer, every export format. The only thing a purchase changes is how many artworks the gallery holds.

Brushes

  • A library across sketching, inking, drawing, painting and airbrushing
  • Full editor: shape, grain, spacing, jitter, scatter, wet mix
  • Pressure and tilt response you can shape yourself
  • Import your own shapes and grains

Layers

  • Up to 1000 layers and 26 blend modes
  • Groups with pass-through
  • Layer masks, clipping masks, alpha lock
  • Merge, flatten, duplicate, reorder, rename

Drawing tools

  • Selections: rectangle, ellipse, freehand, automatic, with feathering
  • Move, scale and rotate a layer or a selection
  • Smudge, clone stamp, bucket fill with tolerance
  • QuickShape snaps a held stroke to a clean line, ellipse or polygon

Liquify

  • Push, twirl, pinch, expand
  • Crystals and edge
  • Reconstruct brings the pixels back

Adjustments

  • Curves per channel, levels, colour balance, hue and saturation
  • Gaussian, motion and perspective blur, sharpen, noise, halftone
  • Gradient map, bloom, glitch, chromatic aberration
  • Apply to the whole layer — or paint it in with a brush

Guides and symmetry

  • Grid, isometric, perspective with up to three vanishing points
  • Vertical, horizontal, quadrant and radial symmetry
  • Drawing assist snaps the stroke to the guide

Animation

  • Frame-by-frame timeline with onion skinning
  • Adjustable frame rate and loop modes
  • Export as an animated GIF

Export

  • PNG with transparency, JPEG, TIFF
  • PSD with layers and masks, straight into Photoshop
  • PDF and animated GIF
  • Time-lapse recording of the session

Colour

  • Disc, classic, value and harmony pickers
  • Palettes you can build and rename
  • Import .aco, .swatches and JSON

Made for tablets

  • Pressure and tilt from the stylus, palm rejection
  • Configurable gestures and a radial QuickMenu
  • Editable text layers — change the wording, not just the pixels

Privacy

Your artwork never leaves the tablet.

YoDraw has no account, no analytics and no advertising, and it collects nothing about you. A network connection is used for exactly two things: buying the full version and restoring that purchase — both handled by Google Play, which reports its own operation to Google the way every Play component does.
