Good news for iPad artists: Procreate 2.3 now supports the Intuos Creative Stylus 2

VANCOUVER, Wash., April 24, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Creating art on the iPad has just gotten a little bit more exciting with Wacom and Savage today announcing the compatibility of Procreate 2.3 with the Intuos Creative Stylus 2. Wacom designed this powerful pressure-sensitive stylus with the creative professional in mind, and Savage's Procreate is the application of choice of many artists when it comes to drawing and illustration on the iPad, so a natural creative synergy was waiting to exist. Customers long hoped to pair the precision and natural feel of the Intuos Creative Stylus with the powerful and fluid tools of Procreate. This creative vision is now a reality due to the collaborative efforts of the Wacom and Procreate teams.

The Intuos Creative Stylus 2 will be supported in Procreate 2.3 on all compatible iPads. Users of the iPad Air 2 can connect and use all the features of the Intuos Creative Stylus 2 in Procreate 2.3, but it will remain officially unsupported. Savage and Wacom will continue to work together to improve and expand compatibility with the iPad Air 2. Other exciting additions to Procreate version 2.3 include the all-new Light Interface, along with stability upgrades and bug fixes from previous editions. The integration in Procreate is an important addition to the selection of supported apps with the Intuos Creative Stylus 2, and both teams look forward to seeing what their customers are creating with their newly compatible tools.
