Any art you create with the tools that come with Procreate and Procreate Pocket by default (brushes and color swatches), including Time-lapse videos, is your content and you can use it however you like. Of course, we'd love it if you let people know you used our apps to create it. Procreate and Procreate Pocket themselves, their graphics, plus the included example artworks and 3D objects are protected by copyright and may not be used commercially or distributed without permission.

Procreate, Procreate Pocket, and Procreate Dreams come bundled with the fonts Eina 01, Impact, and Jack Armstrong BB. These fonts are licensed for personal use only. Smiley Sans is also included in the apps under an open font license, and you may use this font for personal and commercial use.

Other fonts in our apps may be system fonts or fonts you have downloaded to your device. If you would like to use a font in your work, it is your responsibility to check whether a suitable license is available for your intended use.
