Whether by child or work; surely you have seen yourself in the need to download some other digital drawing software on PC. Photoshop, Illustrator, Krita, CorelDRAW, are some of the most used software for these jobs, but they all have a major flaw. They are part of computer-oriented software. The need to sketch anywhere or not be able to get a computer became a problem. This is because some developers chose to build applications that meet the needs of this population. And as a case, I present a list of drawing and painting apps that are available for Android and iOS.
MediBang Paint
MediBang Paint is a Japanese source app that is compatible with Windows, MacOS, Android and iOS. In their mobile versions they have the same features and functions as their computer version. Which thanks to its cloud storage allows the manipulation of your work from any platform.
MediBang Paint is characterized by making it possible to create comics and illustrations from anywhere. All thanks to its drawing tools(60 brushes) and access to a very wide resource library (800+ of shades, textures, backgrounds, and dialogue balloons), which make working with the application more efficient.
