In their own words
ShadowDraw
ShadowDraw is a drawing app that teaches through guided, step-by-step tutorials. Its library contains hundreds of guides described as hand-drawn by art professionals, and the app checks that a learner completes each step before showing the next. Lessons encourage daily practice. In Sketch My Way, users choose colors and brushes; Art Teacher Mode uses choices selected by the art teacher. Apple Pencil and third-party styluses are supported. The free plan provides a daily free lesson, searchable free content, and a blank canvas, alongside a limited number of lessons and features. ShadowDraw+ offers unlimited drawings and new content for $7.99 a month or $49.99 a year, with Family Sharing on both plans. The app is available for iOS and macOS; listed compatibility requires iPadOS 16 or later, or a Mac running macOS 13 or later with Apple M1 or later. Subscriptions use Apple In-App Purchase and automatically renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the billing period ends. The content is licensed for personal, non-commercial use.
