Easl: Creative Meditation

Alright. So, this app is amazing for so many reasons. I’m using it for art, so I’ll explain what I’ve experienced. Firstly, the way that it does the creative little prompts that change each day is amazing. The little music and calm sounds built into each one really helps the goal stand out too and make you feel like finishing it. Like there’s a reason to end it, yet it doesn’t push you to finish nor start. It’s just amazing. Thank you, Easl, for helping me get back into art.

The app instantly takes you to this blissful zen headspace that you didn’t expect from the self help smartphone app you were expecting it to be. The design is masterful and intuitive in a way that captivates by earning your attention. This is such a refreshing feel when so many apps and content platforms use cheap attention grabbing methods. The lessons in the app are simplistic, non-intimidating, and inviting while being rich, empowering, and moving. I think everyone would benefit from using Easl.

The app is incredibly peaceful and fun. I’ve been leaning on my notes app for years to draw little digital sketches. This app is a cool experience because you can integrate expressions and drawings into everyday life. The apps user experience and the mindfulness it creates is on another level. On a larger scale, I think many are lacking a creative outlet and I see how a product like this can help, acting like a coloring book for adults. I’m excited to Easl some more and see how this well designed app and idea develops.
