    Try getting a “paper like” screen protector it makes it easier to write with the Apple Pencil it feels like actual paper 💙

      I wanted to get that type of screen protector for a while now but wouldn’t it wear out the pencil?

      Crescent Moon707 I think yes over time but you can get replacement tips on amazon as well.

      @@ricecrispy3191 It technically can, but it would take a really long time for it to wear down the tip of an Apple Pencil, it seems to be much more durable than the pen nibs that come with Wacom and most other drawing tablets. Paperlike screen protectors work really well and don't seem to wear too roughly on the pen tip.

    that tip about the streamline has been so helpful thank you so much! I had been watching videos of people drawing on procreate and their drawing were so neat! I thought my hand was just shaky and couldn't draw on my iPad because my drawings were so wobbly and messy! thanks so much for these tips!!

      I had a problem using streamline. After using it I though my Ipad was stuck in liquify mode. I had a lot of difficulty erasing. I ended up reinstalling Procreate only to find out I did not backup my stuff. The problem persisted until I reduced the Streamline and the problem went away. Lesson learned. Backup your work.

    Another tip with the colour picker tool, if you hold your finger down on the colour you want on the canvas it’ll colour pick it for you and then you can also move it around while your still holding it down and get a different colour, it probably does it with the pencil too but I always find it ends up making a pencil mark on the page first.

    • @keviniiiiii4750
      @keviniiiiii4750 5 років тому +4

      Michelle Wilson Im using Paperlike, i love its texture and grip when drawing, and it actually reduces friction of wrist movement on the screen. Only downside is that it adds a bit of a sparkling effect on the display. Colours and brightness are not affected much. Glare and finger smudges are a lot less noticeable too.

    I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this... I have the 12.9 with 2nd gen pencil. And currently no screen protector. And at times my pencil feels like I’m going over like a grain of sand,like it snags. It’s not 100% smooth. I thought maybe it’s because I’m writing directly on glass. And no matter how light handed I am I’m having this issue. It’s more of an annoyance and I’m worried because it feels like my tip is being ground and worn down.
    Do you have a screen protector on? I’ve researched so many and I love my clarity but I’m not big on the feeling of writing on glass. Is there one you’d recommend? Thanks so much :)

    I don’t know if you have figured it out yet or not, but to pick up a color in a photo you don’t need to click in between the two buttons and use your pen. Just take one finger and hold it on the color and it will pick up. Not your pen but you finger. So much quicker than how you are doing it.
