Creative Apps: A Selection of My Favorite Apps for Design

Whenever I am not in my personal space working, I prefer using my smartphone as a secondary device for editing, sketching or creating stellar artworks. As an artist, you will never know when inspiration might hit. Hence, I decided to install some useful mobile applications as a safe place for recording my ideas before I lose them.

 I would like to share the following applications, which you might find useful in your daily artistic task:

Doodle buddy. For all “doodlers” out there, this might just be the right application for you. It is a drawing app that has over 44,000 colors to choose from, which can be applied in various forms of textures using paintbrush, glitter pen, chalk and text. I love using this app whenever I am out in wide open spaces while searching for inspiration for projects.

Ruler plus. Most of the artists I know are obsessed with measurements. This app, for me, is vital as it allows me to take accurate measurements whenever I am out of the work place. Ruler Plus has a ruler that allows users to move their phones and measure things around them.

FX Photo Studio. This app provides users impressive ways to edit and enhance images. It features hundreds of filters and high-quality effects for creating beautiful photography. If you like taking snapshots, this is the perfect app for you.

 All these apps are surprisingly free. So take a chance and try using them in your next artwork!
