Procreate is, without question, the best art program available for the latest generation iPad<\/strong> with Apple Pencil, and yet it is ridiculously cheap \u2013 only $9.99 (one-time payment) \u2013 so, of course, if you already have a compatible iPad (more below about this) you absolutely should get this great app.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Correspondingly, do you need<\/strong> a iPad Pro for Procreate? The current version of Procreate is supported on the following iPad<\/strong> models: 12.9-inch iPad Pro<\/strong> (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th generation) 11-inch iPad Pro<\/strong> (1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation) 10.5-inch iPad Pro.<\/p>\n Also the question is, can you use an old iPad<\/strong> for Procreate<\/strong>? Procreate<\/strong> is no longer compatible with older iPads that run iOS 12.4. x or earlier. Sorry. Procreate is NOT the only sketching\/drawing\/painting app that is great on an iPad and some of the other sketching\/drawing\/painting apps may still be compatible with your iPad and iOS version.<\/p>\n Quick Answer, is Procreate only for iPad? Answer: Procreate<\/strong> is an amazing app that is used for digital drawing and painting. However, it is only available for iPhone and iPad<\/strong>, and not Android devices.<\/p>\n In this regard, is Procreate a one-time purchase? Procreate is $9.99 to download. There’s no subscription or renewal fee. You pay for the app once and that’s it. If you are already using an iPad Pro and Apple Pencil, that’s a pretty enticing deal.At the time of this writing, Procreate<\/strong> is only $9.99 for lifetime access. No monthly subscription, add-ons, or hidden fees. You can buy additional brushes to use with Procreate, but you can use<\/strong> the entire app to its full capabilities with this one purchase.<\/p>\n Is Procreate Worth it Without an Apple Pencil? Procreate is worth it, even without the Apple Pencil. No matter what brand you get, you need to make sure to get a high quality stylus that is compatible with Procreate in order to get the most out of the app.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n To give you an idea, I currently have 53 pieces of art in my Procreate gallery of varying complexities. Altogether, this takes up 2.1gb of space on my iPad. That’s not a lot, even for a 32gb iPad. That said, Procreate may not be the only app fighting for space on your iPad.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Procreate for iPad App Available in 13 languages, Procreate for iPad costs $9.99 in the U.S. Apple App Store. You’ll find more information about the app itself in the Procreate App Store preview and the Procreate Artists Handbook.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Good news: all iPads released after 2015 are compatible with the latest version of the Procreate app! The models that are NOT compatible with the latest version of Procreate include: iPad 1 to 4, iPad Mini 1 to 3, and iPad Air 1.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Equipment You’ll Need The main thing you’ll need to use Procreate is an iPad, an Apple Pencil and the Procreate app. However, there are several things you might want to consider before diving in, especially as these tools are quite an expensive investment.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n The basic version is free and gives you access to more or less all of the most important features on the app. If you choose to upgrade to Pro, it’ll cost you only $1.99. It’s for Apple phones and devices only.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n But if you are a beginner, then do not worry as this app is quite easy to use. You can still create your beautiful piece of art digitally by using the default brushes. What is this? You can also download free Procreate brushes that some other artist has made.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Yes, it can. Although Procreate doesn’t look like most photo editing apps on your phone, it does have the potential to do many things they do, with even higher quality and more customization. Procreate is capable of: Cropping, resizing and rotating the canvas.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Procreate is used by professional artists and illustrators, especially freelancers and those who have more creative control over their work. Photoshop is still the industry standard for many companies looking to hire artists, but Procreate is increasingly being used in professional settings.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Procreate is a powerful and intuitive digital illustration app available for iPad. Overall, Photoshop is the better program among the two. While Procreate has astounded users year after year for its incredible illustration capabilities, Adobe Photoshop is our overall winner.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n If you can’t draw, you can still use Procreate. In fact, Procreate is a great platform for learning how to improve your drawing skills. Procreate is well suited for artists of all levels, from beginners to expert users. If you’re a beginner, the program will grow with you.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Procreate does not need the internet or WiFi to work on an iPad. You can use all of Procreates features to their full capacities while offline. Procreate only needs access to the internet when updating or sharing files.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n How long before I get the basics down? It took me around two weeks to get acquainted with the main features of the drawing app, and another two weeks to pick up speed and increase self-confidence.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Strictly speaking, you don’t need the Apple Pencil to start sketching things up on your huge new screen. Creative professionals probably have a stylus or two lying around that will work just fine, anyway.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n With Procreate, my file sizes can range from 20MB for simple line sketches (above) to 200-300MB for 4K or A4 300 DPI canvas with multiple layers.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n If Procreate won’t download, or it doesn’t appear in the app store, it’s likely that your iPad is incompatible with the Procreate software, either due to age or out of date software. There is a workaround to prompt the system to give you a compatible version of Procreate for your specific iPad.<\/p>\n<\/p>\nDo I need an Apple Pencil for Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n
