Trace & Draw - PencilFlow

Just drop in a photo and trace right over it. No AR and no extra gear — anyone can practice drawing with nothing but a phone screen. PencilFlow shows your photo semi-transparently so your screen works like digital tracing paper. Trace portraits, animals, characters, and logos to build your drawing skills. 🪄 Step-by-step Trace Guide Go beyond simple tracing — learn "in what order and how" to draw well. • Auto-generated guide from your photo: outlines are split into steps, from big strokes to fine details, overlaid as "draw this line now" guidance. • Practice the process broken into steps (layers). • Hide and reveal each step to redraw from memory. • Toggle the guide lines on and off anytime, and add your own steps. No internet needed — even first-time learners can master the basics. ✏️ Trace photos with ease • Pick any photo from your gallery. • Adjust the photo's opacity for comfortable tracing. • Draw directly over the photo, line by line — no pressure for beginners. 🖼 Photo filters (Outline Mode) Instantly turn a photo into a form that's easier to trace: Original, Black & white, Outline (Edge), and High contrast. Even busy photos become far easier when only the lines remain. 📐 Grid guide (Grid Mode) The same grid method used in art classes: 3×3 / 5×5 / 10×10 grids to match proportions between the photo and canvas. Toggle it on and off anytime. 🪟 Reference window A small floating window keeps the whole original in view even when you zoom the canvas way in. Drag it wherever you want — handy for detailed work. ✋ Right- and left-handed optimization Choose right- or left-handed in settings and the tool palette sits on the opposite side of your drawing hand, so it never blocks your view during long tracing. 🎨 Varied brushes and natural drawing tools Each brush feels distinctly different: • Pen — a crisp, even ink line • Pencil — graphite texture with natural shading • Marker — thick and semi-transparent, darkening as it overlaps • Highlighter — a wide, transparent highlighter Plus the essentials: adjustable brush/eraser size, brush opacity, color selection, and clear-all. Works with your finger or a stylus. 🌈 Pick colors from the photo • Use the eyedropper tool to tap the photo and grab its color, with a zoom preview of the exact selection. • Choose from a representative color palette auto-extracted from the photo. Keep the true colors of skin tones, petals, character outfits, and logos. 🔄 Undo, redo & quick fill Step back to any previous state with Undo/Redo, and tap a closed area once to fill it fast with your selected color. 🔍 Free zoom and pan Zoom in, zoom out, and drag with two fingers so even the smallest details trace accurately. 🎯 Align your drawing (nudge to fit) Photo and drawing slightly off? No need to redraw. Keep the background fixed and drag only your drawing to align it. The position is saved automatically, and undo can revert it anytime. 🖼 Multiple canvas options Choose white, color, or a custom background color to suit your drawing. 💾 Auto-save & 📚 sketch gallery Everything is saved automatically — close and reopen the app and pick up right where you left off.
