About Paintrix Studio

One sentence

Paintrix Studio is a free digital painting app for iPad and iPhone with realistic oil paints, manga and comic tools, unlimited layers and live drawing with a friend.

Short paragraph

Paintrix Studio is a free digital painting app for iPad and iPhone from an independent studio in the United States. Its oil paints behave like the real thing, with raised impasto, bristle grooves and color that blends into the paint already on the canvas, alongside watercolors, pencils, charcoals, manga pens and screentones, and comic pages with ready-made panel layouts. Every brush, layer, tool and export is free, layers stay editable with live adjustments, and Draw Together lets two people paint on the same canvas in real time. There is no account and no ads; an optional Pro subscription ($4.99 a month) unlocks reopening saved projects.

Highlights

Free to use: every brush, layer, tool and export is unlocked. Pro only adds reopening saved projects.
Manga and comic pages: 7 page sizes, including B4 manga and a vertical scroll page for webtoons, with 23 ready-made panel layouts and editable panel borders.
Brushes that feel like the real thing: oil paints with raised impasto, watercolors, pencils, charcoals, pens, spraypaint and ten manga brushes, including a G-Pen and Maru that respond to stroke speed, plus dot screentones.
Draw Together: two people paint on one canvas in real time from iPad or iPhone, joined with a six-character code or an invite link.
Layers that stay editable: unlimited layers with clipping masks and live adjustments, including bloom and drop and inner shadows.
One app, two devices: the same features on iPad and iPhone, with Apple Pencil pressure, tilt, hover and squeeze to undo.
Private by design: no account, no ads and no generative AI. Artwork stays on your device.
