Doodle Alive: Draw and Play
A drawing app for children ages 5 and under. Your child draws a car, a plane or any doodle, and it comes alive as a polished toy.
- Draw anything and watch it come alive as a puffy toy in the Race world (a country road) or the Sky world (a dawn sky).
- A golden magic wand turns the drawing into a polished toy, painted in your child's own crayon color. The magic toy look is the default: every doodle that lands becomes a polished toy (car, plane, pet, fish or a glossy toy), and a button switches back to your child's own drawing.
- Pet world (Pro): draw a pet and it lives in the world, eating, playing and sleeping. With iPhone Duo folded like a tent, it becomes a bedtime night-light buddy.
- Fish world (Pro): draw fish and sea creatures and they swim together in an aquarium. Tap to feed them, draw plants, rocks and castles to decorate the tank, and watch the fish grow. The tank keeps every fish your child has drawn.
- Made for iPhone Duo: half-folded, the world is on top and the paper below; unfolded or on iPad, side by side. Apple Pencil or finger. Also on iPhone and iPad.
- Never lose a drawing: every stroke is autosaved on the device, every doodle is kept in My doodles, and a copy is mirrored to your own iCloud Drive.
- Free: the Race and Sky worlds in full, ten crayons, no ads, no limits. Doodle Alive Pro is $4.99 once (not a subscription) and unlocks the Pet world, the Fish world and eight extra pastel and sparkle crayons. Family Sharing is on.
- Purchases, Restore, links, feedback email, Photos export and deleting all sit behind a parental gate.
- No account, no ads, no tracking. Data Not Collected.
Questions
What does the golden magic wand do?
It turns the drawing into a polished toy, painted in the child's own crayon color. The magic toy look is the default: every doodle that lands becomes a polished toy (car, plane, pet, fish or a glossy toy). A button switches back to the child's own drawing.
What happens in the Pet world?
Your child draws a pet, and it lives in the world: it eats, plays and sleeps. With iPhone Duo folded like a tent, it becomes a bedtime night-light buddy.
What happens in the Fish world?
Your child draws fish and sea creatures, and they swim together in an aquarium. Tap to feed them, and draw plants, rocks and castles to decorate the tank. The fish grow, and the tank keeps every fish your child has drawn.
Will my child lose a drawing?
No. Every stroke is autosaved on the device and every doodle is kept in My doodles. Doodles are also mirrored to your own iCloud Drive, which is Apple's service: the developer cannot see it.
How do I delete a doodle?
Deleting sits behind a grown-up check (a math question). A deleted doodle waits 30 days in Recently deleted before it is gone.
What is free, and what is Pro?
The Race and Sky worlds are free in full, with ten crayons, no ads and no limits. Doodle Alive Pro is a one-time $4.99 in-app purchase (not a subscription) that unlocks the Pet world, the Fish world and eight extra pastel and sparkle crayons. Family Sharing is on.
Can my child buy something by accident?
No. Purchases, Restore, links, feedback email, Photos export and deleting all sit behind a parental gate: a math question for a grown-up.
How does it work on iPhone Duo?
Half-folded, the world is on top and the paper is below. Unfolded, or on iPad, they sit side by side. Draw with Apple Pencil or a finger. On iPhone the world fills the screen after each drawing.
