Help guides

How to draw

Pick a tool from the left toolbar, choose a color, then draw on the canvas. Shapes, text, stickers and outlines stay selected after you place them — drag to move, use the handles to resize or rotate, then tap anywhere else to finish.

How to draw with friends

Tap the people button, then Create room. Share the 5-letter code (and password, if you set one). Friends tap the same button, enter the code and join. In Creator mode everyone gets their own canvas; in Open mode everyone draws together on one shared canvas.

Frequently asked questions

Is coPaint free?

Yes — completely free, with no accounts and no sign-up.

Do I need to sign up?

No. Just open the app and start drawing.

Where are my drawings saved?

On your own device, inside your browser. Nothing is uploaded to any server.

Does it work offline?

Drawing, saving and exporting work offline. Collaboration rooms need an internet connection.

How do rooms keep kids safe?

Room codes are random 5-letter codes and rooms can be password protected. The creator can pause anyone's drawing or remove anyone from the room at any time.

Can I print my drawing?

Yes — turn on the A4 guide to see the print area, then save as PNG or PDF and print it.

About

coPaint is a simple drawing app built for young artists. Big buttons, friendly tools and zero clutter — everything a child needs to sketch, color and create, and nothing they don't. It is also made for classrooms: a room creator can open a room, watch every collaborator's canvas live, and download everyone's work as a PDF.

The project is free for kids, parents and schools to use and share.

Privacy policy

No accounts, no tracking. coPaint does not ask for names, emails or any personal information.

Drawings are stored only in your browser on your device (autosave). They are never uploaded anywhere.

If you join a collaboration room, your drawing strokes and chosen display name are sent through a public message service so the other people in the same room can see them — only while you are in the room. Room codes are random; keep your code and password private if you want a private room.

We do not sell data, and we do not knowingly collect information from children beyond what is needed for rooms to work.
