What can I access for free in Simply Draw?

Written by Debra

Let's get you started learning how to draw! ✍️

When you open the app, you’ll begin with our Intro to Drawing course - and yes, it’s totally free! 🐠


In this course, you’ll learn essential drawing skills like outlining, shading, and adding patterns, all while drawing your very first subject: a fish! It’s the perfect way to dive into drawing with step-by-step guidance and build confidence right away.

Additionally, this lesson can be repeated as many times as you like, allowing you to refine your skills and build confidence.


What’s next after the free course?

After you complete the fish drawing, you’ll have the opportunity to subscribe to unlock the rest of the app. After purchasing a subscription, you'll unlock the following features:

Subscriptions also support the artists and creators behind the app's content, helping to bring you high-quality lessons and features.

  • 5 fully guided drawing paths

  • More advanced drawing skills

  • Access to your personal drawing journal

  • The Playground: our ever-growing library of draw-along videos 🎨

So give it a try, we're sure you’re going to love it! 😍

Practice Options Without a Subscription

If you cannot afford a subscription, there are still ways to practice drawing:

  • Repeat the Free Lesson: The fish drawing can be revisited multiple times to refine your skills.

  • External Resources: Explore free online tutorials and step-by-step guides available on public platforms to expand your drawing practice.


Why isn't the free trial showing up?

If you're expecting a 7-day free trial but can't see it, one of these is likely the reason:

  • You selected the monthly plan. The 7-day free trial is only available on the yearly plan. Head back to the subscription screen and switch to the yearly option, and you should see the trial there.

  • You've already used a free trial. Trials are limited to one per account or Apple ID. If you've had a trial before, your next subscription will start as a paid plan immediately, even if you sign up with a new account.

  • During the trial, you can access all premium content. Be sure to cancel before the trial ends if you decide not to continue.

If none of these apply and the trial still isn't showing, chat to us in the app, or email us at draw@hellosimply.com, and we'll look into it for you.
