Description
Draw and take notes with ease.
Linea Sketch gives you the right balance of power and control to capture thoughts and ideas effortlessly. The focus stays where it belongs: on your creations, not on the tools.
Why Linea Sketch?
⁕ Minimal UI - Every control is designed to stay out of your way until you need it. Linea's elegant interface puts the focus on your creations.
⁕ Easy Colors - Choose from a wide range of pre-defined colors, or create your own with a single tap. Autogenerated tints & shades save time and effort.
⁕ Elegant Layers - Simplified set of layers that can be easily rearranged, merged, locked, or adjusted. Use the file browser and photo library to import images for reference and tracing.
⁕ ZipShapes & ZipLines - Simply hold still for a moment after drawing a line, rough square, circle, or triangle and ZipShape automatically creates a perfect version for you. You can then adjust final size, placement, and corner radius.
⁕ Move / Transform - Lasso part of your sketch, then move, rotate, flip, or resize. Transform one or more layers quickly & easily.
⁕ Watercolor Brush - Create rustic & artistic effects by painting with organic pigment in three modes: Simple, Wet, and Cloud.
⁕ Annotations - Add labels, notes, and callouts to your sketches using iOS Scribble or a keyboard. Fonts, colors, placement, and more can be adjusted effortlessly.
⁕ Time-Lapse - Record your creative process as you sketch! Save a video of the result as either a compressed 30 second clip or a full length movie.
⁕ Grids & Templates - A wide range of traditional grids, 3D isometric lines, storyboards, and templates for iOS screen or icon design.

Ratings and Reviews
I like it
Ist super ease to draw like that wis this al
From sketch to (modest) CAD
Linea Sketch’s attributes and functionalities are carefully dosed to make it my go-to app for both sketching as some light-weight CAD. Indeed it has just the rightly fit toolset, smart shapes, a very original color palette, 5 layers, cool backgrounds, and more.
All of these are captured in a clean and intuitive user interface with a rather small learning curve. Preferences and Settings are easy enough to go through, so you’ll find yourself in creative mode in no time.
There’s iCloud support and there’s Linea Link on macOS, which makes importing and exporting a breeze.
All in all, Linea Sketch is permanently in my iPad’s dock as one of my few “privileged ones” :-)
incredibly simple app
The possibilities of this drawing app are astonishingly large, while the use remains very simple: all possibilities are explained on an A4. I uses this app professionally (construction) almost every day since 2018: sketching details, editing photos - e.g. 'overlaying' with drawings and/or text in a separate layer, clarifying ideas. Drawings can be exported to the most common formats (jpg, pdf, png,…). My best purchase to date.
Developer Response ,
Thanks so much for your review, we work hard to make the app as good as it can be so we appreciate you taking time to leave it. Please enjoy using Linea and thanks again!
