I built an app that lets your friends draw on your home screen widget in real time
Hey r/apps! I'm the dev behind Drawget and wanted to share it here.
The idea is simple: you and your friends share one home screen widget. Anyone in the group can draw on it, send a photo, or drop a note — and it instantly updates on everyone's home screen. No opening an app, no notification to tap. It's just... there on your homescreen.
I built it because I wanted something that made the home screen feel alive and connected rather than just a static grid of icons. Think of it like a shared sticky note that lives on your iPhone.
What you can do:
- Draw and sketch live on a shared widget
- Send photos straight to someone's home screen
- Add text and stickers
- Join a group with a simple code
- React with emojis to what others draw
- Customize backgrounds and themes
It's free to try. Pro unlocks unlimited groups, drawing history, HD export, and full-res photo sharing ($2.99/mo, $17.99/yr, or $39.99 lifetime).
Would love to hear any feedback or thoughts from this community!
