ToonPAINT allows you to easily create awesome looking cartoon-paintings with your own photos.

*NEW*: export directly to Instagram app if you have it on your device.

Even if you have never drawn or painted before, ToonPAINT sets you up for quick success by providing a "MagiSketch" that you can simply color-in. It's as easy as "paint-by-numbers", but using your own personal images. Unlike other photography apps, ToonPAINT is not just an image filter -- it's a smart-painting application that enables you to express your creativity and obtain compelling results without requiring you to take Art classes.

Simply import a photo, create an "automagic" sketch of the photo, color-in at your leisure, and you're done!

IMPORTANT -- You can CHANGE THE COLORS in the palette by DOUBLE-TAPPING on the color splats.


FEATURES:
---------

* IMPORT: Import pictures from your iPhone or iPod touch, or even take a snapshot with the iPhone's built-in camera.

* MAGISKETCH: State-of-the-Art image processing algorithms process your input image to create a customizable sketch, fully automatically. You can create many exciting effects just by adjusting the basic and advanced MagiSketch settings.

* PAINTING: You can color-in the MagiSketch by painting with your finger to create amazing images within minutes.

* TOON COLOR: With our new optional ToonColor feature, you can take the hard part out of creating great looking color sketches and let the app do the heavy lifting.

* SESSIONS: Your current session is automatically saved when you load a new image, so you can continue it at a later time.

* UNDO/REDO: You can correct any painting mishaps by shaking the iPhone, or by accessing undo/redo via the "bomb" icon.

* NAVIGATION: While you paint, you can pinch-zoom and pan to give you the most control over your painting.

* HELP/HINTS: New to painting? We've got your back! When you first use ToonPAINT, help screens instruct you about the functionality of the app. For more advanced users, we provide in-app hints and tips.

* LANGUAGES: ToonPAINT now supports 10 different languages


We hope you enjoy using ToonPAINT as much as we enjoyed creating it for you!

Your Toon-FX team.

Pay Again???
TimmyTunes1

I love this app!!! Have had it for awhile, but now I have to pay for it again. Since it’s been updated??? No way!!!


UPDATE RUINED APP!!!! Fix ASAP!
Hennessy

This use to be one of my favorite apps but after this stupid update. It messed everything up!! For that I gave this a 1 star when it use to be easily a 4-5 star app. Update won't let me adjust inklines and now it's asking me to repurchase Toon Color and Photo Brush! Both witch I have already purchased in the past. This needs to get FIXED ASAP!!!

This WAS a great app. Keyword: WAS.


So far, so good (revised) Now bad (revised again)
Rok

Update: Hadn't used this in a while, but needed to trace a photo so I opened it up and… oh WHAT HAPPENED?!? The interface is pure junk now. Controls overlap, in an effort to make icons more "hand-drawn," they now look awful and rushed, even text alignment in buttons is broken (the label text rides too high inside the button space). The tracing features are still great, but actually GETTING to them and adjusting them are painful and frustrating. This used to get 5 stars from me. That's how far this app has fallen. See below for my former glowing praise of this app, if you doubt me. ------------- Well, the developers listened and addressed just about every major issue I and others had with the first release. Just bumped the ranking from 4 to 5 stars as a result. The quality/fun/cost balance is just too good. Can you find painting apps with more features or cheaper? Probably. But this just does what it does so well. ------------ original review below ---------- I can't dispute the other reviews: this app does a great job of outlining photos in a style that looks organic, and does it quickly, too. The downsides are what some have already mentioned: - no undos means constantly switching back and forth between colors to hide mistakes. And you'll make some since painting with your finger on a screen this small is a lesson in patience. - get used to using two fingers to pan around. One finger *always* applies paint. - it's a pity the resolution isn't higher, only because as it stands, zooming in gives you no better precision because the blockiness of the brush just gets bigger, too. - one bug in my current testing: taking a photo while in the app results in a crash every time when trying to render after the shot is taken. Importing from the Camera Roll is fine, though. But this is a really FUN app, and shows remarkable potential that, with a few tweaks would get a full 5 stars. Buy it if you're okay with spending $2 on essentially a slick-looking doodle app.


In The Way
Damien Crute

If you go to "additional features" and "restore purchases" you get back the features you paid for before the update. ...BUT if you're on the paint screen and touch "undo, pan zoom, or brushes" you cannot access the paint pallet again! The "undo, pan zoom, or brushes" menu stays in the way! This was a cool app until this happened. Please correct this.


What have you done?
Matt4glte

This is terrible.... The update has ruined this app!


Update Rip off
Angelm776436899@

Now I have to pay again for paint after I already paid before Don't update!


Was A Great App
HumanJoseph

I used to love this app, but with the new update, the controls are no longer at the bottom. There is no intuitive way to figure out how to access the controls. When you finally are able to magically get one set of controls to appear, you can't tap on any others. Please fix this, thank you.


What happened!?!
SteelDraws

Annie FIX MY APP! It's one of my favorites! It's charging me all over again and the ink lines won't show up! Let's go people! 3 stars because I still like you...
