Paper by Fifty Three – An Award Winning App

Paper is more like a digital sketchbook, which is very cool especially those who long drawing. You can find a variety of pens and brushes that you can use to draw, sketch, outline, write and color. Basically it’s free and yes I do mean the basics so if you want to use more special pens and brushes, you will have to purchase to in-app.

I think this is a very useful productivity app for those who often need to sketch their ideas to discuss with the team later or to improve when you get to the actual drawing board. Paper is not only convenient to use; it’s fun too. With this app, you can get what’s on your head directly onto your tablet screen. Years ago we wouldn’t have thought this to be possible but here we are now with an app that let’s you sketch on your screen directly.

Paper is an app for the iPad and a very beautiful one at that. It is an extra ordinary invention that both young and old will surely enjoy. You can easily scribble, draw or sketch your ideas. Any artist would enjoy this even though putting your creativity on to paper cannot be equaled.  This app is an Apple Design Award winner for 2012 and you wouldn’t be surprised to see why. There’s quite a bit of things to explore, which could prove to be very convenient to have right there on your tablet. It could get a bit expensive if you buy all the pens and brushes but since you’re like drawing the traditional way, it would just be like actually buying those drawing tools, all worth it and nice to have.

Of course it is also worth noting here that for every technological time saver, there is a technological time waster and Paper could very well be either. You can spend hours and hours doodling on your journals leaving everything behind. It is easy to lose track of time when using Paper because it does create a lot of fun or to put it better, you are creating a lot of fun. Paper is probably the best sketchpad you will ever need.
