AltoPaint: Oil & Gouache

Paint small oil- or gouache-style pictures with simulated pigment mixing and brush behavior.

Our take

Good for people who enjoy committing to marks rather than undoing them

Three tools and Pencil expression create a focused paint-tin workflow.

Keep in mind: There is explicitly no undo; simulated pigment behavior is not an exact material guarantee. iOS 26 is the captured minimum and Pencil hardware is optional/separate.

What you can do

  • Oil/gouache canvas choice and twelve pigments
  • Round/flat brushes and palette knife
  • Pressure/tilt input, autosave gallery and image sharing

Good for

  • Artists comfortable painting over mistakes

Consider alternatives for

  • A layered illustration suite with undo/history

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 26.0.
  • There is explicitly no undo; simulated pigment behavior is not an exact material guarantee. iOS 26 is the captured minimum and Pencil hardware is optional/separate.

Privacy & permissions

Saved paintings and photo exports may contain private or licensed subjects; review gallery access and sharing destinations.
