You start with a white screen, with a toolbar along the bottom for paint colours and brush size, some stock images running the typical gamut of smiley faces to soccer balls and animals, and a set of background templates.You will enjoy the sound effects that accompany your drawing motions or when you stamp something. Some of them are creepy, like the maniacal laughter heard when you use the widely grinning smiley icon, or the gurgly syrupy sound when you splash down a blood spatter image. The attention to detail on every stamp being given a suitable sound is quite marvelous. The drawing motions you make with your finger tip are surprisingly fluid, with none of the jerkiness you’d expect from random jolts of touchscreen interaction dying out, and doodling about proves to be a satisfying experience.


Doodle Buddy makes doodling a collective experience with its ability to seek out other Doodle Buddy users on your wi-fi search – what would any iPhone app be without social networking? So, instead of being the loner artist, branch out a little and extend a crudely drawn olive branch to a fellow doodler.


The UI is clean and simple to use. You can be rest assured that if kids are present in the house, they will just love it. The clip art, photo library, and pre-drawn backgrounds are great features to utilize.


Regardless of which device you use, Doodle Buddy is a fun way to doodle away without all the trappings and higher learning curves of more sophisticated painting applications in the App Store. It’s definitely one of the best free drawing apps out there. So go out there and bring out the artist in you. Happy doodling!!
