Bring any reference closer to the page.
Sketch Trace helps artists trace with the camera or use the screen as a lightbox, while keeping their references and projects on the device.
Sketch Trace is operated by Almo Studio LLC.

Flexible ways to trace and learn
Choose the setup that fits the reference, surface, and drawing session.
Sticky Trace
Keep a trusted alignment while the camera or drawing surface moves, with safe recovery when tracking becomes uncertain.
Lightbox
Use your screen as a bright, uncluttered tracing surface with position, zoom, rotation, brightness, and touch-lock controls.
Outline and Grid
Simplify references into clearer edges or add an adjustable grid for measured drawing and careful proportions.
Local Projects
Save references, transforms, snapshots, and tracing settings on your device so work is ready for the next session.
Guest-first privacy
Start without an account. Optional supported-provider sign-in, where available, separates local workspaces without uploading creative projects.
Planned for Sketch Trace ProOne-time unlock
Turn each drawing session into a clean time-lapse.
Drawing Time-Lapse is planned to capture progress automatically at your chosen interval. The exported video will show the camera view of the artwork—not the reference overlay, grid, tracking markers, or tracing controls.

Core tracing stays free. The next Android update adds optional rewarded ads for adults 18 or older: one completed ad earns a Sticky drawing session or an extra local project slot. Pro remains ad-free. Rewarded ads are not yet released.
Sketch Trace keeps references, camera frames, projects, snapshots, and time-lapse files on your device until you choose to export or share. The privacy policy explains optional sign-in, automatic analytics and crash diagnostics, purchases, optional rewarded ads, update delivery, permissions, retention, and deletion.
