Customer Reviews
As good as it gets!
Normally when buying iOS apps I don't expect the functionality of a full blown Mac or PC application, but this one really surprised me. I'd recommend it to anyone looking to do vector art on the go.
Among my most loved features of the software is the ability to import typefaces. I can't explain how frustrating it is to be using Autodesk Sketchbook Pro or some other image editing software and to be restricted to the basic font list. When I saw that I could import my own fonts with this app I was overjoyed.
I also love how simple and intuitive the interface is. I've struggled with Adobe Illustrator and other vector software in the past but not here. Inkpad is easy to use and I've had no trouble at all getting to grips with it, especially since it comes with a particularly useful help menu explaining all the tools and functions of the software.
Again, I can't recommend this app enough.It's well worth the y and will easily become part of my most frequently used graphics tools. 5 stars!
Great for drawing on the go
Wonderful- importing SVG's through Dropbox! And then editing them! Worth five stars just for that alone, but when you add in all the tools, layers, and that it "just works" - colour me impressed.
Absolutely Incredible
I am absolutely blown away with this app!
Its capabilities are amazing. It has all the key features you would find in adobe illustrator!
Great product.
