Use your phone as a guide: project any image onto paper through your camera and trace it to create a sketch.
The Draw, Trace & Sketching app transforms any image—such as a photo or artwork—into outlined forms. Using your phone’s camera, you can follow the lines displayed on your screen and reproduce them on paper. Trace and sketch with ease—ideal for learning to draw or improving tracing skills.
This app streamlines image tracing. Simply pick an image from the app or your gallery, apply a filter to make it traceable, and it will appear overlaid on the live camera view. Hold your phone about one foot above the paper and look at the screen as you draw on the sheet below.
Main Features:
- Trace any image by viewing the camera feed on your phone—the image does not print on the paper, but you can accurately trace and reproduce it.
- Draw directly on paper while viewing a transparent image overlay through your phone’s open camera.
- Use built-in sample images to practice sketching in your sketchbook.
- Pick any photo from your gallery, turn it into a traceable outline, and start sketching on a blank page.
- Adjust the image transparency or convert it into a line-art style to support your drawing process.
This app helps users transfer images from phone to paper via the camera, making drawing and sketching more approachable. Follow these simple steps:
1. Image Selection:

2. Applying Filters & Camera Display:

Draw on the paper while looking at your phone, which shows the transparent image over the real-world view.
5. Converting Images:
Select any image and convert it into a traceable outline suitable for sketching.
