How it works

Three steps, no learning curve

1

Draw or write

Pick a photo or snap one in the app. Add a signature, a heart, a message with your finger or an S Pen. With an S Pen, pressure changes how thick and bold the line is.

2

Watch it replay

Strokara plays your drawing back stroke-by-stroke, exactly as you made it. Speed control from 0.5x to 2x.

3

Export and share

Save the replay as an MP4 or GIF and send it to anyone.

FAQ

Questions

Do I need an S Pen?

No. You can draw and write with your finger on the screen. An S Pen adds pressure sensitivity, so lines get thinner or bolder as you press. Check the Google Play listing to see whether your device is supported.

What phones is it for?

It is an Android app, and you can draw with your finger. Galaxy devices with a built-in S Pen, such as the S Ultra line, add pressure sensitivity. Google Play shows whether your device is compatible.

Can I share my replay with people who do not have the app?

Yes. Replays export as standard MP4 video or GIF files, so you can send them to anyone.

Is it really a one-time purchase?

Yes. $2.99 once, yours to keep. No ads, no subscription, no data collected.

Is this affiliated with Samsung?

No. Strokara is an independent app by one developer, inspired by the discontinued Live Message. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Samsung.
