A magic tracing window
Prop your phone over paper and trace any picture through the glass — or draw right on the screen. Then color it, puzzle it, print it. Ad-free, offline, made for kids.
Three steps to a real drawing
No special hardware. Just a phone, a stand, and some paper.
Pick a picture
Choose a playful pack — animals, anime, vehicles, folk art — or turn your own photo into a simple outline.
Prop up your phone
Rest it above a sheet of paper on a stand or a stack of books. The picture appears over your page.
Trace, then keep it
Follow the lines through the screen with a pencil — then snap a photo of your real drawing and it lands in your gallery.
Try it right here ✨
Scribble in the box — every line blooms into a mandala. This is the Mandala maker, one of the ways to play.
So many ways to play
One adorable library of art — trace it on paper, draw it on the screen, color it, solve it, bloom it into a mandala, collect the sticker, print the book. Then play a friend at chess.
Trace
Prop your phone over paper and trace the picture through the screen onto the page.
Doodle
Draw right on the screen over a faint guide — with a finger or Apple Pencil. Then watch your doodle redraw itself!
Color
Tap to flood-fill or paint inside the lines with a soft brush. It keeps the paint inside the lines.
Puzzle
Every picture becomes a drag-and-drop jigsaw that snaps together with a satisfying click.
Mandala
Scribble once and watch it bloom into a symmetric, kaleidoscope pattern.
Draw your photo
Turn a photo of a pet, a toy or your house into an outline to trace and color — made right on your device.
Stickers
Finish a picture, earn its sticker. Fill the album pack by pack — there are a couple of hundred to collect.
Make a Book
Pick your favourite pictures — or your own outlines — and print a colouring book of your own.
