Apps for graphic design androids

[Craig Sjoquist]

So there is apps for ipads & since I will not buy one, not concerned.

So I downloaded one for Android after doing some searching,
Autodesk then 2 more others & found Auto desk good for me because the tool bar stayed on screen, the others did not.
I'm using it to doodle, basic start up ideas hopefully to help sell, possibly to help me learn more, & just playing around a bit.

So wondering if anyone else uses these & how do they help ipad or Android & what do you use for Android on your tablet.

i figured before i post the apps i use, i'd better see if there were android versions first.
i have to admit... i had no idea Adobe's app were not available for androids. pretty shocking when so many people are android users.

just last night i saw a commercial with a forensic artist using a android tablet. unfortunately the ad was for the tablet not the app. but maybe you can figure out what he's using. seems to have very natural drawing capabilities.

Adobe does have apps for android. Tied in with CC users quite a bit.

i think there was one user that ported Gimp and Inkscape to android arch., but it uses a good chunk of resources.

Nvidia shield tablet has some proprietary drawing and painting apps using its stylus, but they might work outside that environment.

Dabbler is one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nvidia.watercolor&hl=en

Layerpaint is another https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.nattou.layerpainthd&hl=en

looks like i was reading an outdated post in an adobe forum

in that case, maybe these great apps are available as well
Procreate, Astropad & SketchBook

This is the one I've settled for because the tool bars are on screen when ya work with it.

You can start out with the free version & buy the pro version later $5 if ya like it.

I know a lot of people are now using tablets for their design work but
you mean using your phone for basic sketches, right?
If so, do you have to have a stylist to use these programs?
