How Does Procreate Pocket Work?

Procreate Pocket is an app that aims to be accessible to everyone, whether they are professionals or beginners. Once you purchase and install the app, you will be able to open it. You can create a new canvas by clicking on the + button. Next, you will get to choose the settings (resolution, format, paper, etc.). Then, you will get the new canvas, with a few buttons at the top of it: Brushes, Layers, Color palette, and a Modify button (for advanced features). Taping on any of these icons will allow you to choose the associated advanced settings. In order to draw, you can use your fingers or a pen (a stylet pen designed for this purpose and not regular pens). Procreate Pocket has also an official handbook to guide you through the process.
