Procreate has long been celebrated as one of the top drawing tools for digital artists—and it’s easy to see why. It’s budget-friendly, gets regular updates, and boasts a sleek, user-friendly interface that doesn’t overcomplicate things. What really makes it stand out, though, is its endless tools and hacks: they’ll speed up your workflow and help you craft stunning art. The video below is a goldmine for anyone who uses the app—it’s packed with 100 Procreate tips, whether you’re new to the platform or a seasoned user.
Quick heads-up: Procreate is exclusive to iOS, so you’ll need an iPad to use it. If you don’t own one yet, we’ve got a comprehensive guide breaking down the different iPad models available right now—perfect for picking the right fit for your art.
The video comes from Art with Flo, and it’s chock-full of 100 tips you might not have stumbled on yet. They range from simple shortcuts (the kind that save you minutes every day) to more advanced moves—like building a custom sketchbook directly in the app. One trick I’m definitely adding to my routine soon? Using touch controls to track which layer a specific mark is on. It’s a lifesaver when you accidentally drop a brush stroke where it doesn’t belong—no more scrolling through every single layer to fix it! Another favorite: pinching out on your work while in the menu to preview the entire piece before exporting. Total game-changers, right?
