Overall Satisfaction with Procreate

I'm obsessed with everything Procreate has to offer. I use it on the daily to assist the Illustrators and Graphic Designers in my team. It allows me to create incredibly detailed mockups when words fail to encompass the necessary visual direction. Digital advertising is a fast-paced job where creatives and designers have to meet multiple clients' deadlines with outstanding visuals. Procreate helps me cut down on time needed to give visual direction by allowing me to design mockups myself. What's more, I learned how to illustrate with the app and am now transitioning to a hybrid creative + design role. That wouldn't have happened unless I had an easy-to-use interface like the one Procreate offers!

Procreate also offers a wide variety of in-built brushes that I use to create my personal illustrations, digital collage art, and more. I'm growing as an artist and am able to bridge the gap between myself and the designers on my team as well.

  • Vector Illustrations
  • Cross Platform Functionality
  • Range of brushes

Procreate is the easiest to understand out of all this software. I use it on my iPad, and I find that drawing with the Apple Pencil straight on Procreate is intuitive and simple, unlike using the complicated pen tool on Adobe Illustrator. As I've mentioned earlier, Procreate is a great app for beginners, whereas both Illustrator and Photoshop have steep learning curves. If you want to dive into designing right away, Procreate is your best option!

Procreate is well-suited for any illustrator, whether they're a beginner or an expert. It offers a vast range of features that will allow anyone with an artistic inclination to start creating right away. It's also appropriate for budding designers, artists, and animators. While the animation options offered aren't super premium, it is a good place to start learning about animating in layers, e.g., in Photoshop.

Procreate isn't suitable for people who want to illustrate vector-based images. The app currently only supports raster images that can't be scaled up.
