Settings
Open Settings from the home screen. Here is what you will find.
Appearance
- Theme: System, Light, or Dark.
- Show tool previews: on by default. Shows brushes, shapes, selection modes, and fonts as picture cards / live previews so they are easy to recognize. Turn it off for a compact list if you prefer.
- Brush sizes: a freeform Slider (any size), or four simple Preset sizes (S / M / L / XL). See Brushes.
- Keep unsaved sheet input: on by default. If a sheet (like New Project) is closed by accident, what you had typed is restored when you reopen it.
- Lock rotation: keep the app in its current orientation even when you turn the iPad, so the canvas does not reflow while you draw.
Defaults for new projects
Set the frame rate and canvas size that new projects start with, so you do not have to change them every time.
Apple Pencil
- Finger drawing: when off, only the Apple Pencil draws and your fingers are reserved for moving and zooming the canvas, so you never smudge a stroke with your palm.
- Double-tap and squeeze actions for supported Apple Pencils (for example, switch to the eraser or the eyedropper).
- Hover preview: shows a ring where the Pencil is about to draw, on iPads that support hover.
- Tool outline: draws a ring showing the brush, eraser, or shape size at your fingertip or Pencil while you draw, so you can see its limits (the eraser's ring is dashed). On by default; you can choose whether it appears for finger, Pencil, or both.
Backup
Choose a backup folder and turn on Auto-backup to keep a safety copy of your whole library. See Your files, backup & restore.
DoodLoop Pro
See whether Pro is unlocked, upgrade, or restore a previous purchase. See DoodLoop Pro.
About & Help
- Report a bug: describe what went wrong and (optionally) leave your email. DoodLoop opens the nubisco.io contact form pre-filled with your report and the app/device details we need to reproduce it. No drawings or personal data are sent.
- Open source: the open-source projects DoodLoop is built on, with their licences.
- Version: the app version and build number (handy when reporting a bug).
