JUMP PAINT by MediBang Reviews

by Sunnydoesart

Couldn’t even create an account. Why need one when it doesn’t even save! I was really looking forward to JUMPPAINT but it really disappointed me. I read the reviews and they’re way overrated. I didn’t even get to create it because I needed an account. Please change this I know I am not the only one with this issue and that can’t participate in JUMPPAINT. I really hope you fix this and the saving issue I do believe I am talking for many people and not just myself.

Worst art app I’ve ever used in my life.
The tools and layout are amazing, but it keeps crashing. I spent TWO HOURS drawing the lineart for a speedpaint I was recording, and it would spontaneously freeze. I can’t do ANYTHING when it freezes, JUMPPAINT becoming completely unresponsive, and the only way to get it to where I can use it is to close out JUMPPAINT entirely before opening it again. Lost the ENTIRE piece i was recording. I tried to re-draw the lineart again, and I figured I should overwrite the file so I don’t loose it, and the second I get the “backing up” message, guess what? It freezes again. And I quit. It didn’t save it that time either. Deleting JUMPPAINT and sticking to IbisPaint :/

It’s a creative app and works great but that falls short when my work isn’t saved and I have to start over. I clicked the save button many times to test it but it seem exporting may be the only way to save works. Edit: I just retried it and the save feature is better but still looses work sometimes. I feel like I have to save every 3seconds and close the work just to check if it saved the work. I have a hard time trusting JUMPPAINT

1. Laggy
2. Can’t see it until I’ve done it (ex: when I change the size or rotation of text, I can’t see the result until I’ve already done it and waited for it to load)
3. THE DRAWINGS DISAPPEAR!!!!
For example, I draw an image and save it a few times while drawing it. Then I leave, to move on to the next page, remembering to save again. I look at the page, and for some reason, I can’t see the little icon/thumbnail on it, so I click it again. Nothing. The page is EMPTY. I redraw the whole thing, save, and nothing again. A third time, nothing. Horrible. PLEASE fix this!!!!!!!
I’m sorry, I’m just very frustrated... :(

It might have a decent paint/drawing toolset and various other amenities but it’s biggest flaw is that it can’t save work. Despite having a gallery and a save function, if you are working on something shut down and return it has to “recover” said work which isn’t always reliable. I honestly can’t recommend it as saving work is frankly one of the single biggest and most important requirements in any creative program.

JUMPPAINT is really user-friendly and has a lot of tools, which is really helpful. And most of the tools are self-explanatory after a little experimentation. It’s just, it won’t save anything. I definitely hit [Save] so why does it always erase everything except for the hidden layer...? It was the first layer I saved, but it doesn’t save anything at all now, not even other pages I worked on. Is it an internet connection problem, or do I have to do something different? It downloads fine, so I still have some of my work, but it’d be nice to be able to save and work on it later...

I'm loving JUMPPAINT, I have this on my laptop as well, it allows me to digitally create shonen jump worthy manga for free.

JUMPPAINT unexpectedly closes out while I work on my comic due to me using materials under the tone tab please fix asap, running on latest iOS

Plus feature an offline mode to this cause there could be a moment where the internet goes off, terrible nearby internet or basically no internet access. What's the point of JUMPPAINT if you need an internet connection to use JUMPPAINT

by Bored Artist

JUMPPAINT is really good, I won’t lie. It has a lot going for it. The interface is professional without seeming to complicated, and it works even better if you have the Apple pen. However, all of this is completely useless if you’re not connected to the internet. This boggles my mind, as almost every single art app I’ve ever tried out is available to use offline. I understand if you can’t make the tutorials available without internet connection but please, I beg of you, make it so that you can draw and work on your own projects without having to connect to the internet. I would definitely give JUMPPAINT a 5 star rating if you took the time to make this change.

by Fifes Descended

I definitely love JUMPPAINT. These tools are BEYOND amazing and can really spark creativity inside someone. I really loved JUMPPAINT and how it looked. I was triumphant getting in to the system and starting my first manga, but then...

You literally need to be a mangaka to use JUMPPAINT.

I wish this was much more accessible in it’s tools. I always leave the lines when making specific panels, the whole design is hard and overall tedious to use. Sometimes I might find myself doing something on the paper that I don’t want, and that’s because it’s small and annoying. If you could really change this to make it so that you don’t need to be an artist (because Apple advertised it as for anyone). ありがと〜

My only problem with his app is that it can only be used online. I'm hoping for an offline mode to be implemented as I'm a person who's in an area that has spotty internet connection during certain times of day, and I also don't always have access to wifi as is.

I have been working on a comic series on JUMPPAINT. I been trying to export my final pieces but every time I do, JUMPPAINT crashes! I have tried using png and jpeg but they both crash either way. Please fix this bug. I need to get my final pieces to someone and my deadline is coming up pretty soon.

by Aaylersghost

This is a great app for aspiring artists. Unfortunately, I had worked on a cover for a long time. After saving, I left the canvas, only to find out that it had in fact not saves at all. I do not understand why this happened, but it left me frustrated with JUMPPAINT. It’s still worth a download, though!

by Mandjtv

It’s a super easy app to use once you understand all of the tools ( which took me some testing which took about 1 hour . ) The only problem I have is that when I want to share an image ; it would say system error occurred and send me out of JUMPPAINT .

by A Human... But A Weird One

I have never lost any of my work. There are a lot of tools you can use especially since it is also a phone app. The last drawing app I got was not that good and I couldn’t really do much with it, but this has so much controls. There is soooo much stuff I can do that I have not even touched on yet.

by Latrell707

I wish it was available offline... I am used to using the laptop version but the mobile version looks much more incredible??? Just wish there was more ease of access possible, figuring out how to use it is a bit tedious. Overall, would recommend. Jump Paint, Medibang and all are great.

by KimiOWO

It’s a really good app. But the only problem is that it won’t save. I clicked the save button and overwrite button a bunch but it just won’t save. It’s getting frustrating. I don’t know what I am doing wrong please help.

by Art1231

Please help me, I reached the storage limit and I don’t know how to expand it. I can’t work now and im afraid of losing my work. JUMPPAINT won’t let open new page and continue working

by TumoralMass63

I love how versatile it is with the many tools it provides. It is functional... when connected to the internet. I’d say somehow being able to open the workspace without having to connect. Maybe local file storage and have it synchronize when you get online. But all in all great app

by Acidragon 64

Literally the the best app for drawing on iPad ever! It has so many tools and everything is super easy and clear. Really recommend for people who are starting to get into digital drawing, and when I say that I don’t mean that it’s only good for beginners, it’s also great for people experienced with digital drawing. Anyways it’s a great app, by the way a tip for the developers. It would be great if you could be able to use JUMPPAINT offline.

It is a learning curve, for sure, but once I learn how all the tools serve their purpose, this thing will be a breeze. One thing I would request they add is some pre done action fonts for Me to put in. Not just the "Pow" and "Crash" stuff, but also the mundane actions, like sipping on a drink. A good example is action fonts from "Bakuman" So, action fonts, please! I'll pay for them!!

UPDATE : app crashes when going from one page to another, after working on previous page.
