Linemate: AR Drawing & Trace

Linemate puts AR drawing, sketch and art trace tools in one app. Trace drawing on paper with your phone camera, turn photos into line sketches and learn to draw step by step.

TRACE WITH YOUR CAMERA
• Set your phone above the paper. The sketch sits over the live camera view, so you trace it with a real pencil.
• Drag to move, pinch to resize, twist to rotate, tap to focus.
• Adjust sketch opacity, lock or hide the sketch, zoom 1x or 2x, use the flash or focus lock.
• Record a timelapse and play background music while you draw.

PICK HOW YOU DRAW
• With camera: phone above the paper, trace what you see.
• On screen: lay thin paper on the bright screen and trace the lines.
• AR pin: the sketch stays pinned to your paper. Shown only on devices that support ARCore.
• Big poster: split a sketch over 2 to 9 sheets, trace each one, then tape them together.
• Reference: keep the sketch beside your paper and draw by looking.

150 SKETCHES IN THE APP
• Browse 150 line art sketches stored in the app: animals, nature, food, vehicles, people and tattoo.
• Search by name and filter by Easy, Medium or Hard.
• Each sketch has extra practice: fade the lines, grid method and color it.

PHOTO TO SKETCH
• Trace photos from your phone: pick one and turn it into lines in Fine, Bold, Pencil or Outline.
• Set line strength, then use these lines or trace the original photo.
• Lines are made on your device. Nothing is uploaded.

LEARN TO DRAW STEP BY STEP
• 60 drawing lessons with short numbered steps, from First Lines and Sweet Treats to Under the Sea and Fantasy.
• A 14-day drawing path that starts with steady lines.
• 84 core drills to warm up your hand.
• Start each lesson with the camera or on screen.
• Earn XP and badges, and vote for the lessons you want next.

TEXT ART
• Type a word like Happy Birthday, pick one of 20 lettering styles and trace it onto a card or notebook.

FAVORITES AND MY ART
• Save sketches and lessons to Favorites and keep finished drawings in My Art.

ADS, VIP AND YOUR DATA
• The app has ads.
• VIP only removes ads. Every feature works without VIP.
• VIP is a weekly or yearly subscription that continues each period until you cancel in Google Play.
• No account needed. What you make in the app is saved on your phone.
• The camera is asked for only when you pick a camera mode.
• Ads ask for your consent where required. Usage statistics and crash reports help us fix bugs.

Recent changes:
• Full View no longer shifts or resizes the sketch when tracing on screen.
• Background music no longer starts playing again by itself while the app is in the background.
• Re-creating text with different line breaks no longer overwrites the sketch of a saved drawing.
