Sketchat

That a picture is worth a thousand words is a fact that no one can escape. Much less the creator of Sketchat, who has created a curious hybrid between the drawing applications and those of messaging A tool that allows users to communicate through doodles and freehand drawings, leaving aside the written text, and paying attention to the expression offered by the strokes on the terminal screen.

It is a simple tool, which does not even offer the drawing possibilities of other tools seen in the applications market And it is which, as its name indicates, is based on sketches or drafts Something that is in the philosophy, design and operation of this application, offering simplicity to focus on the message, and not on the technique. All this to maintain conversations, games or distractions through a blank sheet and a pencil

Its operation is very simple and, although for greater comfort and fun it is ideal for two users to have Sketchat, it is also possible use it individually. Just start it and press the button + to create a new drawing.In this application you only have a pencil and an eraser, so the possibilities are somewhat limited in terms of technique. All you have to do is slide your finger across the screen of the terminal to start drawing: it doesn't matter if they are drawings , doodles or even trade letters

Despite not having colors, different thicknesses of pencils and different types of paint, the possibilities offered by Sketchat are quite wide . And it is that thanks to the use of two fingers and the pinch gesture it is possible to enlarge the image, being able to make precise strokes and get detailed drawings. In addition, the option to reply to the message about the image that the other user has drawn offers the possibility to play games like Hangman, Tic-Tac-Toe or games in which to guess what you want to draw.All this in a simple way, focusing on the drawing and not on what tools to use for it.

Once the creation is finished, the user just has to slide their finger from left to right across the canvas This is how the contact list of the terminal, being able to select the person with whom you want to share. If said contact has the application installed, a conversation is created, being able to check it with a special icon However, other users can also receive the drawing by means of a message SMS multimedia text, included in WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger , or any other way. In these cases the icon is an envelope. If the user is still undecided with his drawing or wants to delete it, he just has to slide his finger from right to left.

In short, a very curious concept to change the way of communicating. Doodles, games, drawings and freehand letters to turn the tables on the current communication system. The Sketchat app is available only for iOS fully free Just download via App Store
