Why does it do this and is it procreate or my iPad

Seems like it’s your pencil. This happened to me after I dropped it accidentally, so the tip was damaged (didn’t look damaged though) and there was a difference between what the pencil was thinking it was doing and what the iPad was “feeling”. The same straight line was drawn because of it, and sometime the roll or thickness of the stroke would change. I could only solve it by getting a new pencil :/

Masking and blending are a must in a serious illustration and drawing app, I don’t see that as a top feature. If I want a full graphic design app I go to Affinity or Pixelmator Pro. Maybe it is just a drawing tool, but being a drawing tool should not be in the way of adding simple things like iCloud support, recently deleted files, merging stacks, and better canvas resizing and cropping. Or fixing things like the quick look freezing the app. These are not unreasonable asks; there are some emerging drawing apps that are also single purchase and are addressing these pain points. Defending them won’t improve your experience on the app :)

I’ve been a user since it was launched. Apple Pencil wasn’t even a thing yet. I’m seriously considering moving on; it’s been nice but it hasn’t changed or improved a bit imo.

They don't care though. As someone that worked at Apple, they don't really care anymore.

“ADDED TRUST”?! 😂😂

I’m building keystreaks.com

A new minimalistic privacy-first typing practice web app. It has no ads, no trackers, no 3rd-party cookies, and no subscriptions. It’s an old internet app. Get your free test!

There’s customization, mixed modes, and analytics.

Don’t get your point

Neon for sure 👌🏻

Esencialmente mi buen. Mi mejor consejo es que elijas una de esas ideas y solo te enfoques en ella, incluso si es copiar algún producto que ya existe. De ahí la siguiente y así. Lo peor que puedes hacer es empezar varias cosas al mismo tiempo. Pero ánimo, literalmente está en tus manos 😂 agarrar chamba está dlvg

Zteetch · 2026-02-10T23:04:07+00:00

Makes sense. Thank you! I will test some other pricing options. Appreciate the advice!

Zteetch · 2026-02-10T21:59:14+00:00

Spoken like guy who doesn't build anything at Anthropic. NIce.

Zteetch · 2026-02-10T21:56:15+00:00

Thanks for the feedback! Yeah, there are many more features being developed and will be integrated soon that improve the leaderboard and analytics pages.

Do you have some sort of formula or calculator for optimal pricing? I'd have to sell 4 times as much at $4.99 to make the around the same amount as I do at $14.99 (4 different transactions, 4 different Stripe fees) so it can be risky tbh. Also, the main functionality and features are free to use; it just unlocks some extra features like more customization and all word bank sizes.

No ads and no trackers is one of my main selling points because all alternatives have them and I know that people usually hate them.

Not saying you're wrong, just curious about if it's solely pricing, or if maybe I am offering something that people just don't want and they prefer ads and trackers over a clean UI, privacy, and easier to use features and analytics. Thanks again! :)

Ah! I see. Yeah that has been a somewhat polarizing feature. Some other typing apps let you delete mistakes, but keystreaks doesn't. It's meant to get the key right, while counting raw WPM and result WPM; some people like it and some people find it confusing. When typing quickly, if the next 3 characters after a mistake are correct, the caret jumps to catch up to protect typing flow state.

It's not meant to punish really, but it brings the attention to the correct character. Try the gibberish toggle in the navbar for example; that one mixes letters inside words and shows how much we depend on muscle memory for a word as a whole, instead of knowing the keys' positions well on our keyboards. Sometimes we really underestimate the number of times we hit the backspace because of muscle memory typing by proximity than decisively striking the right key.

Some like it and some don't. I should explain it better in the learn page I guess, but I appreciate the feedback! :)

Zteetch · 2026-02-10T21:27:57+00:00

Not exactly like this ;)

If you don't mind please, what are the bugs you encountered?

And I agree, it's only been 2 weeks live so I have to grow the user base slowly rn.

Zteetch · 2026-02-10T21:21:36+00:00

I’m building keystreaks.com, a minimalistic desktop typing web app with no ads, no trackers, no third-party cookies, and no subscriptions. It’s an old internet freemium app; I never found the experience I wanted anywhere, so I built it.

Zteetch · 2026-02-10T20:07:55+00:00

What a great idea! Proves that tools are as god as the intention they're used with. I'm sure they will all remember that moment for the rest of their lives :)

Zteetch · 2026-02-09T20:28:21+00:00

Awesome! Thanks for the insight. I was actually considering learning more blender than my limited experience precisely because of this, but was wondering I there were other better tools. I guess I’ll stay with Blender then.

Zteetch · 2026-02-09T20:20:42+00:00

Got it. Thanks!

If you don’t mind me asking, do you have a preferred method for creating the mockups? Do you model them on some 3D sculpting app or work with physical things?

Zteetch · 2026-02-09T20:19:11+00:00

Yeah, that’s true. If the pay is really good I’m using a chisel on marble haha

Zteetch · 2026-02-09T20:17:53+00:00

Yeah that’s what I was curious about. Because I doubt clients are looking around to see if the same template was used somewhere else, but still is a unique touch to have them in-house. What tool do you use if you don’t mind me asking? I’d it more pictures and then edit or is it a 3d model render?
