How to import Procreate Brushes into Procreate Dreams

Here’s a 40 second video showing you how to import Procreate brushes in to Procreate Dreams.

I’ve been having (mostly!) fun playing around with this app for the last few days. I’m not going to lie and say I’m finding it easy, but I’m slowly finding my way around! The main problem I’m facing with it is that I just don’t like doing video editing type work on a small screen! I just can’t with editing reels with my thumbs in the Instagram app so I edit mine in Premiere Pro to save my sanity and I’m kind of feeling the same with Procreate Dreams.

Even though I have a 12.9″ iPad Pro, it still feels really claustrophobic to me. Like, literally my chest tightens and I feel anxiety when I use it! Don’t get me wrong, that’s all on me and the different way my brain works, and I’m not knocking the app! I just know it’s going to take me a while to ease myself into using it, before I can even think of making any classes about it!

However, I found myself having to look up how to get Procreate brushes into it because the method I’d read in a comments section on Instagram didn’t seem to be working for me! I was dragging a brushset from on brushes panel to another, whereas you have to specifically drag it onto the stage. Silly me! And so I thought, well, this is a thing I can make a quick video about! So any time I have to look something up or have a question, probably someone else has that question too, so I can make a quick video on it!

Here’s how to get your custom Procreate Brushes with smoothing and stabilisation into Procreate Dreams.
Drag up from the menu bar, grab Procreate and drag it over to the side of the iPad screen. Then go find your brushset and just drag it onto the stage of Procreate Dreams and it will import.
Don’t try and drag it into the brushsets panel. It has to be dragged onto the stage. Then your brush set will be there at the bottom of the list of brushsets.
Then, as you can see, you’ve got the option of drawing with the stabilisation we all rely on!
If you want to drag just one brush in, you can do that; just drag one brush onto the stage and you’ll find this one right at the bottom in a set called Imported.
