First impressions: pens are super responsive, that's awesome. Not sure if the width is not adjustable or if I just couldn't find it. Took me a while to figure out how to get additional colors but quite happy with selection so far.

While I appreciate your efforts and passion for BlackBerry, it would be great if you could bring us an awesome map app with true offline use and also some region specific apps e.g. India?

Also, I use instant app but it does not log data daily. It picks and logs data randomly for a date.

We need more and more apps from you that makes us more productive.

Thank you! If you mean brush size, then as of now it is not adjustable.

There are some good map apps in BBW, and BB Maps as well. Offline use is not that easy with maps - too much data aggregation on your device.
Also, we haven't made the Instant app.

It'd be cool if you could post some of your creations as well

[ChrisR]

You're welcome! Yes, I meant brush size. I wouldn't mind if it became adjustable eventually but hey, it's not that big a deal for me and there are plenty of photo / graphic design apps that do image import and whatnot . I have been waiting for an app that replicates the experience of sketching and you did an awesome job! Super responsive pens and brushes. All you need to make fast sketches (30 sec to 2 min). Anyone who's ever done an art class knows what I'm talking about. You really nailed it with this app.

Thanks. By mistake I put instant here.

Is it possible for you to share what all apps you are planning to develop and maybe we can have a poll which one should be first?

I think it will be a good idea.

Possibly we can do that some time in the future - for now we will be focusing on upgrading our existing lineup

Image import along with adjustable brush sizes are on the agenda for an update

I was so excited to get your app that I downloaded sketchbook from BlackBerry World. But it turns out that it wasn't your app so I wasted $2 on an Android camera app smh
