FAQ
Common questions
What tools are available?
Finger, Rake, Footprint, and Stones. (More coming soon) Each leaves a different mark in the sand. You can also constrain your stroke to a circle, a straight line, or leave it free.
Does it work with Apple’s Pencil?
Yes. The Apple Pencil works great on supporting iPads by manipulating the sand naturally, allowing you to carve, shape, rake, create footprints, and move rocks across its surface. Realistic sand physics make the grains pile, shift, slide, and settle in response to every touch, creating an experience that feels remarkably like playing with real sand.
