Privacy Friendly Sketching lets you create and save simple sketches in a quick manner without having to endure ads or requiring additional permissions!
Select a background color or a background image and start drawing! This app allows you to draw simple sketches in a matter of seconds to share with your friends.
A key feature of Privacy Friendly Sketching is ensuring the users privacy at all costs. This means that every sketch is saved encrypted and that there are no permissions being required in order to use this app.
In addition, we will never display any annoying ads to increase the fun factor while using the app and eliminate any data usage that might occur!
The only permission that this app requires (that is completely optional) is to access the import/export functionality of this app, in which you can import an image from the device storage or export a sketch into the device storage.
Functionalities:
Edit a sketch with various different colors, thickness and transparency
Undo/redo the last action
Zoom and Scrolling
Select a background image or a background color for your sketch
Export sketches as a PNG into the device storage
Share sketchs with your friends

This app needs the colour white. White can be used as a substitute for an eraser brush (there isn't one), and to add highlights. Without white, this is not really usable. The colour brown could be replaced by white (brown can still be created by blending other colours).
Simple, but excellent. There is great need for privacy-focused, ad-free apps.
I would give this 5 stars, but you can't erase! I love the privacy and it's otherwise exactly what I need. I just need to erase to make changes and fix mistakes.
Very nice app, fast & simple to use. Eraser option, more advanced color selection, and ability to copy sketch would be super nice additions
Easy and quick. I love it. It exports a very convenient jpg format, I wonder how much extra effort it might take to export in svg instead to keep objects as objects and make it scaleable.
Good open source app
Fun app. Can you guess what I drew as the first thing after installing it?
