As a result, sharing code with the iOS version made the process easier, though SketchBook Pro is scaled up to take advantage of the increased processing power and memory footprint of the Mac. The Loop reports Autodesk also had to ship a different version of Sketchbook Pro in order to be approved by Apple:įor example, Mac App Store apps aren’t supposed to use private APIs, can’t incorporate their own end user licensing agreements, and can’t employ separate copy protection. That’s quite an achievement, I would say. Autodesk (makers of AutoCAD) announced in a private event in San Francisco that the Mac App Store version of Sketchbook Pro, a painting and drawing application, has sold twice as many copies as the regular version did in the entire year. The most notable one comes from Pixelmator, which grossed $1 million in less than 20 days into the new store we have covered other experiences from developers in our Mac App Store hub. Sketchbook Pro is certainly not Procreate but being about to use it on Windows and MacOS can be very convenient.The Mac App Store isn’t even one month old and we have already heard several stories of success from Mac developers. It's still kinda worth the money though considering the features you get and it's a one time purchase. Which means if you have to buy two licenses if you want to work on Windows and MacOS. I'm not sure if users will be getting a free upgrade.įor Windows and MacOS users, Sketchbook Pro is US $19.99 each on each platform. Over at the Sketchbook blog, they also talked about the transition and what artists can expect.įrom what I can see currently, Autodesk Sketchbook that's now on Google Play Store and Apple App Store is still the old version: Autodesk Sketchbook v5.1.7 which was updated more than a year ago. It's a good move to build a stronger identity for Sketchbook Pro.
The app is called Sketchbook Pro instead of Autodesk Sketchbook. Thomas Heermann from Autodesk explained the move and also talked about the history of Sketchbook.
Autodesk Sketchbook is now Sketchbook Inc, an independent company spinned off from Autodesk in June 2021.
