Go to the iPad App Store and click on your picture in the top right corner. Scroll through your list of apps until you find Procreate. If there is an update button, click it to download and install the latest version of the app.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Are my Procreate files backed up?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Procreate does not have an automatic cloud backup system.

Bulk export layers by picking up one layer, then tapping others to add them to the stack.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What happens if you offload Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Answer: A: No. When an app gets deleted, ALL data associated with that app gets deleted, as well. Before deleting anything off of your iPad, you should be backing up ALL your iPad data to either iCloud, the Finder on a new Mac or an older Mac or Windows PC that can install and run the latest iTunes.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why does my iPad touch screen keep freezing?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>A lot of the time, a bad app can be the reason why your iPad screen freezes. The app may crash when you open it or use it, freezing your iPad. One quick way to see if you&#8217;re having issues with a specific app is to head to iPad Analytics. Open Settings and tap Privacy -> Analytics &#038; Improvements -> Analytics Data.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why does my iPad freeze when playing games?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes the iPad freezes due to malfunctioning apps or too many apps open and running at the same time. This can cause the device&#8217;s performance to dip causing the freezing.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Why does my iPad keep locking?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>According to some reports, problems with your iPhone or iPad locking itself can be linked to an issue with the Date &#038; Time settings. This is easy to remedy by changing your device to set the date and time automatically. To change your Date &#038; Time settings: Go to Settings > General > Date &#038; Time.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How do you reset Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Click on your brush to open its settings.
