WetPaint
A Finger Painting & Drawing App
by Jared Updike
An App Simple Enough to Use with Your Toddler
Combined with Guided Access, you can turn your iPad or iPhone into a fun, messy, and safe canvas and turn your fingers into a colorful brush.
Draw, write, doodle, teach, and learn together!
Actual drawing by an actual toddler
Simple, Thought-Out, and Fun Features …
- Dozens of easy-to-use colors to get you started.
- Mix colors right on the canvas with a very natural feeling round brush. Make a colorful mess.
- Draw with as many hands or fingers as you can get on the screen, at the same time.
- Draw polka dots just by tapping on the screen.
- Paint with smaller brush strokes using the Apple Pencil, if available, while you or your little one draw with fingers.
- Shake to erase, like drawing toys of yore.
… and Thoughtful Lack of Features
- No modes or tools or popups to get stuck in.
- No gestures, undo, zooming, brush sizes or any such thing to get confused by.
- No rotating to confuse your little one—full screen only.
- No loading or saving function in the app. To save a drawing, just exit Guided Access and take a screenshot using the system screenshot function.
And that’s it!
