Procreate Brushes Not Appearing or Loading Correctly After Importing
Procreate allows users to import custom brushes, but sometimes, brushes fail to appear or load properly after import.
This issue can occur due to a variety of reasons, ranging from corrupted brush files to memory limitations.
First, ensure the brush file you're trying to import is compatible with Procreate.
Procreate supports .brush
files for individual brushes, but if you are importing brush sets or files from other applications, the format might not be supported.
Always check that you’re using brushes that are specifically designed for Procreate.
Next, check if your app is updated to the latest version.
Sometimes, bugs related to brush loading can be resolved by updating Procreate.
If your app is already up to date and the problem persists, try restarting Procreate.
Rebooting the app can clear out any temporary bugs or glitches that may prevent brushes from loading.
If you’re still having trouble, check your device's memory and storage space.
Procreate needs sufficient free space to load brushes properly, especially when working with custom or high-resolution brushes.
If your device is low on storage, Procreate might fail to load brushes correctly.
Try freeing up space by deleting unused apps, files, or media.
Another solution is to reset Procreate’s brush settings.
Sometimes, brushes become corrupted or improperly configured, causing them to fail to load.
To do this, go to Brush Settings > Reset
and restore the default settings for any affected brushes.
Additionally, if you’ve recently imported a large number of brushes, it may be useful to clear out unnecessary ones.
Procreate can slow down when the brush library is overcrowded.
Deleting unused or duplicate brushes can help reduce lag and make the app run smoother.
If none of these solutions work, try reinstalling Procreate.
A clean installation can resolve more complex issues, such as corrupted brush files or app settings.
Lastly, if you continue to face issues, reach out to Procreate’s customer support for more specific troubleshooting related to brush importing.
