iPads have Clip Studio Paint, Procreate, and a number of others. (Which is a crazy price, so it doesn't really bear mentioning.) Tablet devices don't run Windows, so they're limited to what's available in their app stores. However, this is not the case with tablet devices, other than the Wacom MobileStudio. If your computer can run it, the tablet will work with it. Most drawing tablets will work with any PC or Mac drawing software. So, now that we have that distinction out of the way, to answer your question: There are two main kinds - the kind without a screen (meaning you see your drawing on your laptop screen, while using the tablet works a bit like a pen-shaped mouse) and the kind with a screen (which you draw on directly, but still needs to be plugged into a computer.) There are peripheral devices, meaning you have to plug them into an existing computer. These run iPadOS, Android, or Windows, respectively. There are tablet devices, such as iPads, Samsung Galaxy Tabs, and the Wacom MobileStudio. Okay, so 'tablet' has a dual meaning these days, which is partly why I think you're so confused. if you're looking for more specific recommendations or tutorials i'm aware that you can look them up on youtube but you'll have to ask other folks for the best channels or creators to visit or watch. I know there are folks who use other tablet types so opinions and suggestions in the replies will likely vary. i've been using it for about 5 or 6 years give or take but it's worked for all my creative needs. the functionality is really simple in that you draw on the tablet and stuff shows up your laptop/computer screen. Personally i use a pen and touch tablet, the wacom intuos small, on my laptop computer and medibang paint. To start purely for clarity's sake medibang doesn't have its on tablet but a mobile app that can be downloaded on ipads or other tablets, though it's best to check the required specifications for functionality.įollowing up there's a couple different tablets you can get: pen (or pen and touch) tablets like the wacon intuos, screen tablets like the wacom cintiq or compact tablets like the ipads and samsung note tablets. Long time user of medibang paint with a pen tablet and it's actually pretty simple depending on the kind of tablet your looking for.
