ibis Paint X is a drawing and painting app with a social side, available for Android, iOS and Windows. It is free to start; a Prime membership removes limits on the Windows version and unlocks all functions.
ibis Paint X started as a phone app and became one of the most used drawing apps for manga and illustration fans. Its interface is built for touch and stylus input, and it lets you share the drawing process with other users.
What it is used for
- Illustration and manga: Layers, blend modes, screen tones and many brush types cover most 2D work.
- Sharing your process: The app can record a drawing as a time-lapse and post it to the community.
- Working on the go: The same app runs on phones and tablets, so a sketch started on a commute can continue at a desk.
Where to download it
The official site, ibispaint.com, links to the app stores. On Android it comes from Google Play, on iPhone and iPad from the App Store, and the Windows version is listed in the Microsoft Store. Windows 10 (version 2004 or later) or Windows 11 on an x64 processor is needed for the PC version.
Free mode and Prime
The app is free to install. According to the Microsoft Store listing, the Windows version in free mode limits editing time to one hour per day, and a Prime Membership unlocks all functions and removes that limit. Prime is a subscription, so cancel it in the store account if you only want a trial. Ads can also be removed with a separate add-on, and prices vary by region.
Alternatives
If you want a free, open-source painting program for the desktop, try Krita. For a comic-focused free app with cloud storage, see MediBang Paint.
Pros
