Is the store release date confirmed?

The date shown above is our target for the Free store release, subject to Apple and Google approval. The beta is open now. Studio Plus and Studio Motion public releases will follow.

No. Free tools need no account or subscription. Create with your own photos, drawings, and narration, and export a PDF or video without a trial countdown.

Are AI features included in Free?

AI creation belongs to Studio Plus and Studio Motion. Sign in to the beta app to be considered for complimentary access and credits. We select testers from early beta accounts and grant access to those accounts. Signing in alone does not unlock AI features.

How can I be considered for complimentary AI beta credits?

Install the beta, open Account, and sign in to Doodle Dragon Studio. We’ll select testers from early sign-ins and add the appropriate beta plan access and credits to their accounts. Check Plan and credits in the app for your access and balance. No separate email application is needed. Selection and credit amounts are limited, and AI beta participants must be 18 or over.

Up to US$1,000 is the total promotional credit value across both plans and all selected testers, not an amount per person. Credits are for in-app AI creation and are not cash. Selection and credit amounts are limited; signing in does not guarantee credits or immediately unlock AI features. No separate email application is needed. Free tools remain available without an account.

How the beta works

Install the beta. On Android, install from Google Play. On iPhone or iPad, use the Join the iOS beta button above. Install Apple’s TestFlight app if prompted, then accept the beta invitation and install Doodle Dragon Studio.
Start with Free. No sign-in needed. Make a book from your photos or drawings, record your own voice, and export a PDF or video.
Sign in early if you’d like to try AI creation. Open the app’s Account screen and sign in. We’ll select Studio Plus and Studio Motion testers from early beta accounts and add access and complimentary credits directly. Check Plan and credits for your access and balance if selected. No email application is needed; signing in does not guarantee selection.
Tell us what happens. Report anything that breaks or feels confusing through support. A screenshot, your phone model, and the app version from Account → Help & diagnostics help a lot.

The beta is still being refined. Features and availability may change between builds. Free local tools remain free; AI features use credits and require the appropriate plan or beta entitlement. Check Plan and credits and the purchase screen for the terms that apply to you. Beta access does not promise unlimited AI generation.
