Those who plan to store a large amount of photos and videos on their iPads in addition to a large gallery of <strong>Procreate<\/strong> art may want to consider the higher capacity options.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, is 16GB good enough for iPad? If you&#8217;re a gamer \u2014 or you&#8217;re buying for a gamer or sharing an iPad with a gamer \u2014 <strong>16GB<\/strong> will be enough if you&#8217;re willing to actively manage your storage and delete games that you&#8217;ve already played. For example, BioShock is 1.64GB. Infinity Blade III is 1.92GB.<\/p>\n<p>Also the question is, does <strong>Procreate<\/strong> take up a lot of storage? <iframe style=\"margin-top:25px;width:100%;height:420px;\" width=\"auto\" height=\"auto\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/6irUO_i4Cx4\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Correspondingly, what specs do you need for Procreate? <\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>12.9-inch iPad Pro (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th generation)<\/li>\n<li>11-inch iPad Pro (1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation)<\/li>\n<li>10.5-inch iPad Pro.<\/li>\n<li>9.7-inch iPad Pro.<\/li>\n<li>iPad (9th generation)<\/li>\n<li>iPad (8th generation)<\/li>\n<li>iPad (7th generation)<\/li>\n<li>iPad (6th generation)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>You asked, how much RAM does Procreate use? Historically apps running on iPad were limited in RAM due to a reserve needed for background apps and tasks, so when Apple opened up more RAM to developers this month it was a big deal. For Procreate this means a significant boost in extra layers for iPads with 8GB RAM or more .<\/p>\n<h2>How much data does Procreate use?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Procreate timelapse videos can be lossy or lossless videos and they usually take up around 30-40% of the file size. So if your file is 200MB, the timelapse video can be 80MB.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is 16GB a lot of storage?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Today, 16GB is the sweet spot between price and capacity for most enthusiasts and gamers. That amount gives you the headroom to do a couple of things at once, without having to close tabs or applications to exceed your available RAM.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is 16GB enough storage?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>16GB: Excellent for Windows and MacOS systems and also good for gaming, especially if it is fast RAM. 32GB: This is the sweet spot for professionals. Gamers can enjoy a small performance improvement in some demanding games, too. 64GB and more: For enthusiasts and purpose-built workstations only.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is 64 GB enough for Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Contributor. I went with the 64GB version based on my personal usage with a previous iPad 3 and also my iPhone. However, if you&#8217;re planning on using Procreate and other apps that consume space, then paying for the next size (256GB) may be worth it. I too would have preferred if Apple had made a 128GB version.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>What size iPad do I need for Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>The current version of Procreate is supported on the following iPad models: 12.9-inch iPad Pro (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th generation) 11-inch iPad Pro (1st, 2nd, and 3rd generation) 10.5-inch iPad Pro.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is iPad 64GB enough?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>If you do a lot of streaming and very little offline watching, 64GB is acceptable. If you want to be able to save a few movies and shows without having to delete other items on your iPad, 64GB is also good enough but you might want to consider the 128GB iPad Pro.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Do I need an Apple Pencil for Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>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<h2>What app is most similar to Procreate?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>ArtRage.<\/li>\n<li>PaintTool SAI.<\/li>\n<li>Krita.<\/li>\n<li>Sketchbook.<\/li>\n<li>Clip Studio Paint.<\/li>\n<li>Painter.<\/li>\n<li>Adobe Fresco.<\/li>\n<li>MyPaint.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/p>\n<h2>Is Procreate easy to use?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Procreate is Great for Beginners, But Don&#8217;t Stop There Procreate CAN be a really advanced program with a lot of power if you want to devote some time to learning everything that it can do. It can be really easy to learn the basics of Procreate and stop there.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<h2>How much RAM is enough?<\/h2>\n<\/p>\n<p>Generally, we recommend 8GB of RAM for casual computer usage and internet browsing, 16GB for spreadsheets and other office programs, and at least 32GB for gamers and multimedia creators.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Let&#8217;s find out. 32gb iPads will have enough storage for the typical Procreate artist who does not store a lot of additional files on their device.
