We see a decent amount of questions regarding what iPad to buy. To make sure r/ProCreate doesn't get flooded in iPad related question, you can leave them here!
Every once in a while we we look at all the comments and update this post with useful information.For any indepth questions, we highly recommend r/ipad and r/iPadPro.
First you can check which iPad supports Procreate [HERE](https://procreate.com/faq)!
If you are completely new, this is good to know:
So without knowing anything about iPads, here’s some guidance for what to look for in a device. Get the most RAM and largest screen that your budget will allow, and be sure the iPad is compatible with the Apple Pencil. Having a larger hard drive is great too, so if you have some extra budget, go for it.
Which Apple Pencil should I buy?Which Apple Pencil should you get? Well, it depends on your iPad because the Apple Pencils are not cross-compatible. You have to get the Apple Pencil that works with your iPad, the other one will not work. For a full list of each iPad that works with each Apple Pencil, click [HERE](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211029).
Difference Between Apple Pencil 1 and 2The most significant difference between the two generations of Apple Pencil is the way they charge. With the Gen 1 Pencil, you need to remove a little cap, which is easy to lose, then stick the pencil into the iPad port, which is … awkward. Gen 2 charges seamlessly while magnetically attaching to the side of the iPad. For this reason, it’s harder to lose, and it’s always charged. Additionally, the Gen 2 Pencil has an invisible button that lets you switch between the brush and eraser tools in Procreate. I didn’t really like this feature and kept triggering the button unintentionally, so I turned it off. The Gen 2 Pencil also has a flat edge on one side, so it won’t roll off the desk when you set it down.
All that being said, the Apple Pencil shouldn’t be the deciding factor of what iPad to get, just get the one that works with your iPad.
Does Procreate work on the iPhone?Yes! And no. There is another version of Procreate specifically designed for the iPhone called Procreate Pocket. It’s a separate purchase from Procreate for iPad. It has many of the same capabilities as the iPad app and is great for drawing on the go. If you are interested, check out r/ProcreatePocket!
Does Procreate work on Android OS? No. The Procreate team has stated that they are focusing development solely on iOS.

Been adapting my technique/style by only using lasso tool to define shapes and gradients in order to add colour, I quite like it…means I’m not getting bogged down with detail rendering.

I tried to achieve some painterly effects from other digital art I’ve seen. I think that I got close to what I was after but not exactly there yet. Not my best work but I’m coming from traditional media so this is going to take me longer to learn than I’d like. I’ve been following tutorials on YouTube and I find painting in Procreate is a deceptively complex process! IMO. But here it is, painting #1

Bought my first ever iPad and I received it today. First thing I did after university was buying procreate and messing around with it. Can’t wait to receive my pencil tomorrow, although I should probably focus on studying my midterms…
I know this is far from a great artwork, but I’ve never really drawn before so I’m pretty happy with it considering it was made with my index finger :)

Looking for a sparkle brush or something to illustration the glitter seen here and in old school Disney animation

Decided to finally try my hand at one of those art tutorial reels that are always coming across my feed, I learned some new things and I'm very pleased with the results.

I’d like to share with you some of my art I’ve been doing with my iPad Pro of a story I’m developing, so this are just like concepts from the story involving my own original characters.
The story will be about Tori (the girl with glasses and who is the main character, inspired by my wife) and a few of her friends, and everything will be about a type of paranormal creature hunter/investigator from Mexican and Latin American culture, she will be an average high school girl; by pure coincidence she will find herself involved in these adventures. These are images, practicing and detailing my art more and more, and I really like drawing shiny clothing, as you can see 😅.
Feel free to share your opinions, as I hope to complete my comic book one day, and maybe even one day it’s officially published. Let me know what you think and what I can improve on.
r/ProCreate • u/MeguChuu • 7h ago
Trying something super new for me after watching some YouTube artists and feeling inspired (mostly SamDoesArts)…
Lots to improve on but definitely making art feel fun again after feeling so scared to push myself and try new things for some time❤️
Open to friendly advice from all you art gods🙏

Feels like I over-polished some parts that are meant to be less detailed and kinda out of focus, but still.

It’s a regular Comictober over here! Used the Schulz brush here which I really enjoy.
r/ProCreate • u/Lanky_Empanada • 14h ago
An older piece but one I’m still proud of! Sorry for the trauma

Is there a way to at least move this out of the way?
r/ProCreate • u/AF9005 • 14h ago
Made by myself :)
I’ve mostly used the Overland brush on this piece, you can find it on the pastels section within the software.
