This is Flow.
When you’re in a state of flow, in the zone, distractions fade, time stops ticking, and creativity comes naturally. Flow helps you find that place again and again. It’s the app where you’ll take better notes, draw your best ideas and find the inspiration to create.
Award Winning.
Flow is known and loved world over for its thoughtful design.
Find your Focus.
Creative moments are precious and even the tiniest bit of friction can knock you right back out of them. Flow has features specifically designed to help you find deep focus.
Infinite Canvas
Pages that expand at the speed of thought.
Whether you’re sketching, storyboarding or journaling, pages seamlessly expand as you work so you never have to break your stride.
Customise Everything
An interface that simply melts away.
Choose your preferred layout and setup custom gestures that make using Flow feel effortless. You can even make your iPad and iPhone into a shared screen with Pencil Case Mode.
Tool Dock
Tools you pick up as fast the real thing.
Design your perfect tools then swap between them with just a tap. Instead of getting lost in menus, you stay lost in thought.
Pencil Perfect.
Every feature of Apple Pencil is deeply integrated into Flow: pressure, tilt, angle, squeeze, Barrel Roll, and double tap. It all works in harmony to give you precise, expressive control. From dynamic tool rotation to the Quick Menu at your pencil tip, it all feels simply effortless.
For Notes
Think visually.
Capture ideas, plans, and diagrams in a space that thinks the way you do — visual, flexible, and endlessly expandable.
Secure Cloud Storage Included
Your notes are automatically and securely backed up on the cloud and across all your devices.
Works Everywhere
Sketch on iPad, markup on iPhone, and review your notes on the web. Flow is always on hand when inspiration strikes.
Visual Organisation
Create collections to organise your documents with cover images and smart thumbnails.
Really good for jotting down my continuous stream of ideas - I just jump straight into the action without thinking.— Tim6060
For Sketching
A genuine pen-on-paper experience.
Flow has beautiful and expressive tools, built from handcrafted macro-photography of real pens, pencils, and markers. They feel like using the real thing straight out of the box, with powerful customisation options when you want to take it to the next level.
Realistic Tools
Sketch, shade and ink with realistic tools. Customise how they respond to pressure, velocity, tilt and roll.
Pen Sets
Design sets of tools that you can switch between with a tap. Sets can be for a style you’re working with, a particular document or just a mood.
Colour Palettes
Create your own palettes of colours that you love to use, or colours that belong to your current drawing. Use the eyedropper to sample anything on screen.
Friendly for casual use and powerful for larger sketching projects.— Clackmac123
For Design
Do your best work
Flow is a powerful design toolkit. It supports multiple layers and the custom built vector drawing engine makes it simple to select and move content around. It’s the power to make your designs look great without any cumbersome complexity to slow you down.
Ruler
Draw precise curves, angles, and multi-point perspective. Snap things into place and mask areas — whether you’re sketching product concepts or architectural studies.
Layers
Separate different parts of your drawing into layers for iteration and shading effects. Reorder, hide, merge, and rename layers to stay organised — all with an interface that‘s fast and easy to use.
Import and annotate
Bring in photos, screenshots, or reference material and draw directly over the top. Perfect for annotating mockups and refining design ideas. You can also generate images inside Flow with Image Playground.
Genuinely a joy to swap between pen colors and move through my documents.— Ivynya
For Sharing
A space to collaborate
Flow makes it easy to work on something together in real time, share ideas over a call, or present your work. It’s a whiteboard, a notebook, and a creative space all in one.
Realtime Collaboration
Work together live on the same document from different devices. It’s ideal for remote teams, classrooms, or group projects. With SharePlay, you can draw together inside a FaceTime call and talk through ideas as they happen.
Virtual Pencil
Your audience can follow along with the live on-screen pencil that perfectly mirrors your real Apple Pencil. Great for screen sharing, presentations, or tutorials.
Timelapse
Record your process as a timelapse and export it as a video, GIF, or series of still images. It’s great for sharing progress, teaching techniques, or just watching your creative process unfold.
The perfect balance of features and simplicity, the app just gets out of the way and lets you create.— Duncan Pollock
