The recent update has made all the text tiny, which strains my eyes to read, and there's no option to change the size. The lack of such a simple settings option (especially after an update like this, which makes it hard to read the titles of your own works) feels like a warning sign to me that this app is only going to go downhill from here.

Honestly, this is the best free art app I found. A lot of great free features, you can download brushes and see others art, and it's cool to use. I just got it today and I'm tryig to get the hang of it but this so far has no major issues. It's pretty fun and easy to use. Great app, would recommend. Though, of only I could find a comic maker like this... Still. I'm loving it!! I'm new in the digital art world and this already has helped a ton with references and stuff. Best one I've found.

Ibis paint X has been great, and it's very easy to use. One problem I have been having recently is that it's been very laggy. When I try to import a picture, it has to reload completely, and sometimes and doesn't even import it at all. It keeps reloading for no reason at all. Other than that it's a great app.
