About Brushes Redux

Brushes Redux is a free painting app for iPhone and iPad. Brush settings let you adjust size, density, spacing and other stroke properties, while the colour picker controls colour and opacity. Layers help separate parts of a painting, and the store description lists options for hiding, locking, rearranging and merging them.

The app saves work in the background and supports undo and redo. It can also record the painting process for replay on the device, and the official listing describes JPEG and PNG import and export. Check the current App Store requirements before choosing it for your device.

What you can do

  • Adjustable painting brushes
  • Colour and opacity controls
  • Painting layers
  • Background autosave
  • Undo and redo
  • Painting process replay
