PicRef - for reference picture
A reference-image board for arranging several pictures alongside creative work, with crop, rotation, mirroring and iPad notes.
Consider for artists building a focused visual workspace
Batch transformations and split-screen use can keep references accessible while drawing in another app.
Keep in mind: Claims of no image-quality loss are not independently tested, and handwritten marking is explicitly iPad-only.
