I’ve been using my iPad for around 2 years now and I have gone through my fair share of apps that work for me and some that don’t. For me, I usually use my iPad for school and some leisure drawing so if you are like me, read on to find out my review of some popular iPad apps that you should download!

✏️ Procreate
Honestly, Procreate is one of the big reasons why I bought an iPad in the first place. However, the irony is that I contemplated getting the app for a while since I have to pay for it. But when I finally decided to pay for the app, I did not regret it at all! Procreate is my favourite drawing app in the market and I’ve spent countless hours just drawing on it 😙
•Best Features:
– Variety of brushes ranging in texture and look
– Layers function makes drawing super easy
– Canvas size is easily adjustable, can even draw on photos
•Tips:
– Download other unique brushes from Twitter!
– Import your favourite fonts
📝 Goodnotes
Another paid app but so so worth it! I mainly use this app to annotate slides in class and for taking notes! I also use it as my planner to keep track of daily activities😍👍🏻
•Best Features:
– Able to sync across devices (especially helpful if you need type things down on your laptop and want it to reflect on your iPad)
– Auto-alignment for shapes (makes drawing graphs so much neater)
– Import photos and stickers (for digital journaling!)
– Save notes in multiple formats including PDF
– Create different notebooks for different subjects
•Tips:
– I downloaded a free Goodnotes planner template from online to help me keep track of my tasks
🎨 Canva
Need a quick and easy way to design something that is still nice? Canva is your best saviour! It is an all-in-one design app that has all your design needs! From illustrations to a multitude of font options, Canva is super user-friendly 😎⭐️
•Best Features:
– It’s free!
– Extensive library of illustrations and photos
– Font selection is huge!
– Thousands of templates for you to choose from (Instagram posts, resumes, presentation slides, logo design, etc.)
– iPad interface is almost the same as computer’s (easy to see everything)
•Tips:
– For more elements keywords and design inspiration, search on TikTok for ideas!
That’s it for my top 3 favourite iPad apps! I hope this helped you in deciding which apps to download ☺️
