About Freehand

Freehand lets you draw and calibrate your freehand circle drawing skills in a fun way. Draw as many circles as you please. The app will infer the best real circle that fits your freehand drawing and give you an estimate of your accuracy. Track your progress and improvements over time.


Most people can draw freehand circles with better than 90% accuracy. But can you do better consistently? By repeatedly practising drawing freehand circles using the feedback you get from this app, you will eventually get to be so good that the best artists of the world will envy your freehand circle drawing skills.

By drawing good circles you will be able to unlock the lines of a special ode. Unlock all 16 lines to win.

What are you waiting for. Get out there and draw!

Please post your comments and suggestions on Google Play.

Thanks!

P.S. Freehand is based on the algorithm described by Dale Umbauch and Kerry N Jones in "A few methods for fitting circles from data", IEEE Trans. Instr. Measurements, Vol 52, No. 6, Dec 2003.

Note: Thanks to "Jay" for the really cool icon.

Can't people make apps that actually work?

Great app. Very original idea, it just takes up too much space on my phone.

Wonderful app to use for cognitive thinking. Could be further developed using randomly picked shapes. Talk to aunty jay about how it can be used for crt.

What about other shapes?

X70%

Very addicting as you try to beat yourself! Nice idea... A background music would be great.

K70%

Good idea but poor execution

K70%

Frustratingly addictive

V70%

1) Don’t understand the points system. For example, I don’t know what 97.6% under a best score means. 97.6% of what? 2) not sure if the red lines are supposed to mean anything to the user. Does not convey much information. 3) Warnings that figure drawn is not a circle stays on for only a short amount of time 4) Cannot reset the average and start from scratch 5) Overall - fun little app

T70%
by T####:

As found in a lot of good games, seeming pointless activities can be pretty interesting and addictive. I think the game did great in this regard. Would be even better with some minor usability enhancements: -Showing how far off from locking additional lines -Use an explicit back button to exit the about and ode screen (when I touch the screen to keep the device from going to sleep so I can keep reading, it exits the page)

(Galaxy Note) First of all, this is a new concept of which I have never seen before. The idea of actually drawing circles and improving your circle drawing skills has a lot of potential. The addition of being able to see your overall accuracy is very cool. Circle-drawing is relaxing and addictive in a way. However, there are some essential things that are missing. For example, the ability to use the back button on menus and multitasking are missing. Also, you are not able to reset your stats in any way, which is very frustrating. The added easter eggs are creative, but are incredibly difficult to unlock the lines of the ode, which I'm not sure was intended. The addition of more stat counters, like best streak or fastest circle over a certain percentage. Overall, I think a new concept like this is promising and creative, but it still needs work before it is perfect.

by S####:

Tried for 30 minutes trying to prove to myself that I can draw a perfect circle but could get to only level 3. Back button support would be nice and some soothing music. Also some kind of background instead of black color would be cool. I would also love to know what other people are able to achieve.

Since downloading this app just a few minutes ago, I have drawn about 130 circles in quick succession and scored about 7 Level-4 circles so far. I've also unlocked 7 lines of the poem. Here are the pros: - Quick to learn and start using - Addictive and maybe relaxing experience to draw circles endlessly - (I think) My circle drawing skills have actually improved - Looks and works nicely on both my phone and Galaxy Tab 10 Cons: - Sometimes the sound effects don't play (don't know if this is

Freehand hides a lot of fun behind a seemingly simple idea. I haven't grown tired of trying to draw more perfect circles. I'd love it if I could see my performance over time or compare scores with friends. More or more obvious feedback about your circles would also be welcome.

F70%
by F####:

Honestly, it's better than most apps I've tried. Simple premise and a time waster, in a good way. I'd suggest adding the ability to reset scores from within the app, as well as a training option where you can trace a circle for practice. Perhaps also add some information about the mathematics of circles, for education.

N70%
by N####:

It's so addicting and I can't explain why! The highest I've gotten is level 5 circles. Still trying to unlock the last part of the ode.

Multiplayer is glitchy but overall a nice app. Just got 97.8 yoloswag

S70%
by S####:

Like the concept a lot. However, I don't feel like my circles are improving significantly. Perhaps something that would show you what your "average" circle looks like (maybe a scaled overlay of all of your circles?) would help. But overall it's very nice!

Managed to get a level 4. Can do level two most times with a little practice.
