If your colors seem less vibrant than usual, your canvas may be set to a CMYK color profile.

CMYK is the industry standard for 4-color printing on paper. CMYK is best for reproducing or preparing artwork for magazines, newspapers, and other types of printed material. Because CMYK matches printed ink, it displays a limited spectrum of on-screen color.

RGB color profiles display more vibrant colors on your screen. We recommend only using CMYK if you're planning to print your artwork.

Create a new canvas from your Gallery with an RGB profile for increased on-screen saturation.

How to set up a new RGB canvas.

1. Tap in the top right of your Gallery.

2. Select any canvas size except Comic CMYK 6” x 9.5”.
