Inkscape is a vector graphics editor, with capabilities similar to Adobe Illustrator, CorelDraw, or Xara X, using the W3C standard Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file format.

Inkscape supports many advanced SVG features (markers, clones, alpha blending, etc.) and great care is taken in designing a streamlined interface. It is very easy to edit nodes, perform complex path operations, trace bitmaps and much more.

Leonardo Plays 2022-08-28: fake, just install it with "sudo apt install inkscape" on chromebook linux
Jess 2020-08-31: very hard to use when you finally get the app open. You cant even delete the app. :(
Matthew Walker 2017-07-08: Darn... Thought this was the real thing
Austin Loucks 2017-05-21: Horriable App. Really Slow and doesn't allow to save your work unless you buy their plan. Wish they would go out of business.
James Edward Johnson 2016-12-20: RollApp seems to be abusing the Inkscape license. I hope someone else comes in to offer a much more reasonable alternative soon.
BB 2016-12-10: i can just bootleg the program that works better, this one wants to give me a 7 day trial and then charge me. no thx. go pound sand.
storm fork 2016-12-09: This is completely ridiculous for rollapp to be profiteering off inkscape's opensource software.
Jakob D V Andersen 2016-12-03: this feels criminal
artsy fartsy stuff 2016-11-16: love, love , love inkscape
Heather LeMay 2016-10-29: Cannot save any files. Very Slow. Horrible app
SMimi Qi 2016-10-03: bug bug bug bug ...
Eboni Christmas 2016-09-25: Terrible app. Have to pay for premium if want to save files. complete ripoff. Slow and constantly froze my computer. RollApp is a sham
M Qurux 2016-09-02: THIS IS THE MOST STUPIDEST APP IN MY ENTIRE LIFE!!!
Roger Tilmon 2016-07-26: Slowest program I have ever tried to use. I am deleting and never using again. This is the second chance I have given this program so shame on me.
mike pierson 2016-07-19: Really Slow!!! I tried to use it for about 5 minutes and gave up because it was a several second delay on every action.
Epic Baroda 2016-07-01: good and well but not offline working
Josiah Russell 2016-06-30: slow
S L 2016-05-14: Very slow and won't let you save files unless you pay rollApp it's ransom. This is supposed to be a FREE open-source app! Removing now and will never use again!
Anonymous 2016-05-07: sealed interface's review sums it up well. Inkscapes roots are open source and it should stay that way. Companies like rollApp shouldn't be allowed to get away with selling subscriptions to open source software like this.
Paul 2016-04-04: good app but very slow... cant open files with my gdrive
Keelan Cook 2016-04-04: Really slow. Unhelpful.
Benjamin Trias 2016-03-14: Waaayyy too slow.
Oscar A. Jones 2016-03-10: This is, BY FAR THE BEST paint program I've ever used!
Christopher Simpson 2016-02-07: Ditto everyone else's comments. Simply doesn't work.
Jim Burnham 2015-12-09: To slow to be useful. Paid for a subscription to see if it was any better but it's just as bad. Your much better having a computer running OS X, Windows, or Linux and using chrome remote desktop to log in and draw.
GC Typo 2015-12-05: RollApp is is horribly mistreating Inkscape by charging users for even the most simple features, like saving files. Inkscape is free and open-source software, but RollApp has managed to circumvent the GPL license legally through "service as a software substitute" (see the GNU page on this: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/who-does-that-server-really-serve.html). Because technically RollApp is merely running Inkscape on their servers, they are able to charge users for basic functionality without modifying any of the source code. What RollApp is doing goes against everything that Inkscape stands for when it comes to free and open-source software. Unfortunately, there is nothing that can be done to prevent RollApp from mistreating Inkscape. In addition, a number of the five-star ratings on RollApp's Inkscape page were completely blank, which are an obvious indicator that RollApp is inflating its own ratings to promote its products. Beware of some of the five-star ratings here, RollApp may have started inflating its ratings here as well.
Ritesh Bankapur 2015-11-17: Did not open AI file. I did not bother to try and open other file types. Big claims by the app builder but it didnt work for me. Hopefully it can open .txt file
Seij Z. 2015-11-09: Decided to skip this app after reading all of the reviews saying it was not working. This should not be a free app it is a trial and requires an account created with the developer. It is a 14 day trial and not free. Very misleading and based off the comments it's unclear to almost everyone. This should have been disclosed at the top of the Overview and that it was a trial, not in the details where you have to scroll down: "Access to full features of the application requires creating an account with rollApp.com. Once signed-up, you will get a 14-day free trial. After that time, you will be able to continue using the app for free in read-only mode."
Logan Balla 2015-09-19: Extremely slow, can't even paste images into it. Really needs improvment.
WVR Spence (WestVirginiaRebel) 2015-08-23: Won't work. Can't click on anything & too slow to open.
Kendall Fletcher 2015-07-21: I don't like this app compared to standard desktop inkscape. It somehow manages to lag even more than the desktop inkscape, and the features are somewhat rearranged, which irks me everytime I go to the right to click undo before I remember 'Oh it's on top now'.
Skylynn Fickling 2015-07-05: I couldn't figure anything out and you can't save
mactermac 2015-06-01: Too sloww
Amber Carter 2015-05-28: it doesn't work on chrome books and now I'm gonna fail science
Carina Tangsgaard 2015-05-19: The app works but it's just useless when you can't save or export anything.
Lior Effinger-Weintraub 2015-03-18: Completely worthless. The ui is horrid and the app is completely non functional without membership. Even a supposed "export to PNG" function just hangs and doesn't work, even though it doesn't explain why it won't work. Inkscape used to be a fave. no longer.
Alek Walter 2015-03-17: Can not re-size window. Very slow. Also, not a free app, as necessary features are for premium users only.
Gene Chang 2015-03-17: It was great when you could download to dropbox. As of March 10 (for me), this essential feature has been removed, rendering this app useless unless you pay for it. If that's the case, it shouldn't be disguised as a free app.
Hoppy Johnson 2015-02-11: It did exactly what I needed it to do, which was open and convert a Corel file to a PDF I can use in Illustrator. Plus unlike when using AI to open Corel files there were no layer drop outs causing artwork to look different and that in itself makes this software priceless in my book. It's also a free program so the other issues I've seen mentioned and what I've run into are all minor and not enough for me to discount the usefulness of this program.
not_eli “OgMorty” 2015-02-09: It keeps frezzing and deleting all my work and will not let u save the work
Keith Welker (Keith W) 2015-02-07: Could only use 3 times. Closing one window closed all inkscape windows. Do not use.
Aleksandra H 2015-02-07: On Chromebook it's not working at all. Can't resize it - it stays tiny in the corner of the screen. Can't go fullscreen. When trying to do anything the window resizes itself constantly. I've used the app in the past but now it's unusable.
Lucas Fontenelle 2015-02-04: Makes my chromebook more usable
Plipppie 2015-01-10: It's slow and kinda confusing at first but if you get to know it it works great. I would give it another star if it weren't so slow. :)
Maranda Seymour 2015-01-06: Save Your Time And Get The Desktop Version! Desktop Version : NO ADS AT ALL!!! <<<--That alone is worth getting the desktop version! Accept And Move On!
MJ Hdev 2015-01-05: Great idea, less than stellar application. It's laggy and wont go fullscreen. Not terrible not great, just ok
James Mitchell 2014-10-30: have to subscribe
Paul Copley 2014-08-07: Unusable. Terrible.
Lida Artemino 2014-07-17: It seems to me that Inkscape is more powerful here in cloud. It makes easy transition from PS.
Dan Martinez 2014-07-16: Awesome app. Why was it impossible to find early? (((
