Review title of dMOTIONThe best painting and sketching app for PC.

This app is the number #1 reason I bought a Surface Go... ...just to be able to use Leonardo, the best painting and sketching app for PC! Regular updates, perfect support and made with both technical users and artists in mind. :)

Review title of ShirleyAmazing for Surfaces, $40 is a steal after Trial

This program feels smooth, intuitive, and obviously made for Surfaces from the ground up. I've shown it to two other artists who immediately fell as much in love with it as I have. I went from Photoshop and a Wacom tablet to using only my Surface. The pencil brush is amazing and I'm very excited to see what this product looks like when it is finished. The Ruler and Smoothing is amazing.

Review title of CameronThe Windows equivilant to 'Procreate'.

I've always loved my Surface Book 2 for drawing, but it feels like there's always been a disconnect between the hardware and software. On my iPad, I've always defaulted to just using Procreate since it was built from the ground up for iPads. Sadly, that's not the case for Surface/Windows 2 in 1 devices. Adobe apps have touch features thrown in as an after thought, while also being hard to navigate via touch. Many Windows store drawing apps are decent for sketching, but either lack features and refinement, or flat out aren't fun when it comes to drawing. Leonardo manages to pack in features, fluidity, an extremely easy to learn UI, AND it is fun to draw in. There have been a number of times I will finish drawings or client work in Leonardo without even having to touch Photoshop (which is easily a clear winner for a drawing application in my book). If you're on the fence about buying it, don't be. It's been worth every penny, and it's been a god send for all my Surface devices.

Review title of ZaneExcellent Drawing App

Although Leonardo has all the features you would expect from a "Drawing App", I use this more for drawing up ideas and prototypes for various projects, and it does really well for that purpose. Lots of pens / brushes, selectable layers, shape tools, and grid background makes this perfect for my needs. Highly recommended.

Review title of StellaAmazing! would recomend, but some disqualifacations

I love this app. This was the first non-free art app I got on my surface pro. I am very impressed and I would recomend. Everything is very easily accessible. Just a couple things I would suggest, are that it should have more brush tips, being able to add text, a setting for line work in the layers so the opacity of the sketch is lighter, a tool to resize aspects, and being able to zoom out less than 50. Other than that, 10/10 program!

Review title of BryanThe Best Drawing/Painting App I've Ever Used!

Drawing on a Surface device has never felt so much like drawing on paper. Excellent performance, smooth..amazingly paper-like lines, and a seemingly infinite canvas. Leonardo is really the first app I've used that makes me prefer using my computer to paper. Excellent and continues to get better.

Review title of orlandoSaving dont work for me :(

I love the feel of this App but one thing I cannot seem to do is save my work. I did a 10 hour painting and when I went to save it gave me an error saying incorrect file format. I am going to try and re-install if it works then I will give u guys 4 stars. Update so I cant save the Layers I have to merge them then save :( but what if I want to work on them later what do I do?

Xade Software AB responded on 4/27/2019

Hi, glad you like the feel of Leonardo. My guess is that you are trying to "save" to a non Leonardo file format. In order to do that please use the Export function (under the File menu). If I misunderstand your question please send us an email and I will take a deeper look at it.
