The most advanced simulation of real paint on iOS! Get creative on a digital canvas with smearing, blending oils, delicate watercolor, and much more! Ever wanted to try painting your masterpiece but were put off by the mess and expense? Now you can!
ArtRage isn't just about color: It knows how much paint you've used so you can smear it around to spread it over the canvas. It knows how wet your paint is so you can blend it with other paints. It even knows about the roughness of your paper so your pencils can be used for soft shading.
It's not just a special effect either - ArtRage is a live simulation of the properties of real artistic media that lets you can get creative with colors and textures using tools you already know how to use!
ArtRage takes full advantage of the features of your device like larger canvases on iPad Pro, Apple Pencil support for pressure & tilt, and 3D touch on your iPhone.

Features:
Real world painting tools: Oils, Watercolors, Paint Rollers, Pencils, Crayons and more. Each tool has a range of familiar properties such as how much thinner is applied to the paint, or how soft a pencil tip is. Tools apply texture as well as color, and blend under the brush.
Add Layers to your painting and work on individual elements without damaging others. ArtRage supports a wide range of Layer Blend Modes, and layer contents can be scaled moved and rotated independently.
Import images, converting them to oil for smearing or as Reference Images pinned to the canvas as a visual guide. Load photos as Tracing Images which are overlaid on the canvas, and have ArtRage select colors automatically as you paint.
The interface has been designed to maximize your creative space without hiding away critical functions such as tool and color selection. As you paint, it gets out of the way so that you don’t have to stop and manually adjust panels.
Record your paintings! The ArtRage Script system lets you record strokes while you paint for playback in desktop versions of the product at higher resolution.

ArtRage Negative Reviews
Get Procreate instead!Not optimized for two finger undo or quick brush size increase. Slow performance on iPad Pro..Pdf dreamerVersion: 2.3.1
Worst art app everThis is by far the worst art app I’ve ever had the displeasure of using. It deletes layers and does not properly save progress. Today it deleted three hours of continually saved progress and 4 different layers that were created days ago. This is completely unacceptable for a paid app. Spend your money elsewhere..PJRageQuitVersion: 2.4.0
Import imagesDoes anyone know if you can import images into this app? I have gone through it and can’t find it anywhere!.TposeinVersion: 2.3.3
Good but overdue for an updateEnjoyed using it for a long time. Very nice behaviour on blending and laying down paint. Pencil not as satisfying as other apps but passable. Currently the app is quite laggy and prolly doesn’t take advantage of the newer iOS. Time to move on. Please update and I’ll come back. Rarely used now. Procreate and ClipStudio now my favs..TimvancouverbcVersion: 2.4.0
Too slow for 2019There is no reason why in 2019, on the latest iPad Pro that a program like this should have such a slow interface. The lag is unbearable.
Great program, but bogged down by a very poor UI / UX..R0bwVersion: 2.4.0
Needs fixingI downloaded this about 10 minutes ago and so far it has hung up three times, it just stops painting and no tool will work. Shut down and re-start and again it is fine for 2 or 3 minutes. I cannot really rate as thus far it is unusable..PrallVersion: 1.0.4
LaggyThe response time for most of the brushes is slow. It’s very hard to work with..Rbloch66Version: 1.6.3
Beautiful app, feature rich - but a critical flawThis app is extremely disappointing, solely because all the wonderful features and capabilities are negated by a significant lag in drawing. In some cases the lag is so great that what should be a short line is a dot or does not even register. I find myself slowing down so it can keep up. Unacceptable.
I would give any other app a one star for this flaw, but this app is so well done otherwise, that would be unfair here. But beware, unless you are willing to suffer this lag, I would recommend that you do not buy it.
When this lag is fixed (and I suspect it will) I will up this to five stars. Until then, it is coming off my iPad. UPDATE: They have still not fixed the lag in v. 1.3.
A shame, because otherwise it is so beautifully done..Hjd73Version: 1.3.0
Not what it once wasSo sad once a great app now continually freezes and cannot save the work!.HMA444Version: 2.1.4
PixelsSo far it's really nice but the paint or pen marks etc, are not clear. If you can correct this so that the brush marks are smooth, clear and crisp with no square pixels then I think it would be a perfect app.
Zooming in makes the image impossible to work with because it becomes blurry, so fine details don't work. This is a big flaw and will deter a lot of artists unfortunately. The quality needs to be excellent with these apps or it won't be successful. Fix that and this could be a top app! Do it quick because I really love the interface and paint options!
One more point to add after a bit more use is that the larger the brush the more lag. :(.I . s h a n n o nVersion: 2.1.1
Buggy and SlowUsing this with iPad Pro and Apple Pencil. Major bug with a couple tools. Blob at the beginning of most strokes which makes it almost useless. The kind of bug that you find within 2 seconds and then wonder... Did they even test this? This version is a little faster but it's still slow in comparison to apps like Procreate. I gave it 2 stars instead of one simply because I like the oil paint brushes and no other apps seem to be doing this simulating thick paint. But until the blob bug is fixed it's useless..Shirley77777Version: 2.1
Latest update unusableThis latest update is so laggy and bloated on an iPad Air none of the tools work at all despite all the "fixes" on their support.
Tried closing all apps, restating, rebooting, etc. and no difference.
Give me the last version back so at least I can use it. This version is completely unusable..WolfgangcatVersion: 2.0.1
Not user friendlySimply unable to start a new artwork. Impossible to start something new on a blank page, you must find a way to earase the old artwork. This is frustrating. Nothing is clear with icons, simply unable to do whatever you have in mind...
Some cool texture and effects (oil paint, pastel...), but hard to control.
Hate it. May be cool with menu easy to understand, and some kind of tutorial...
But right now, I simply hate it..Véronique GrégoireVersion: 1.6.8
Beautiful but impossibly slowBeautiful painting engine. But impossibly slow. Abandonware?.StornVersion: 1.6.3
Tools are coolI like the blending for the colors but that's it, it's slow, not really user friendly. I really prefer procreate. I tried it mostly for the watercolor and blending tool, but it's far from satisfying..SourisbleueVersion: 1.4.7
Très bon mais.....J'adore cette application, mais depuis la dernière mise à jour, l'app gèle et bugg continuellement et maintenant je ne peux meme plus revenir en arrière ou "undo"! Donc je perds souvent de belles oeuvres et je dois tout recommencer à zero, ce qui peut être très frustrant.... C'est dommage pour une si bonne application, donc s'il vous plait, fixez cela au plus vite! Merci!.Roger-bobVersion: 1.4.4
