Publisher Description
HankyDoodle is a drawing and word-guessing game where you and your friends take turns sketching a word and guessing what the other person drew.
Every drawing is replayable. Watch your friend's brushstrokes appear in real time, share the replay as a video, or save the finished art to your photo library.
GAME MODES
- Word of the Day: a fresh word every 24 hours. Draw it your way and see how others interpreted the same prompt.
- Play with friends: send drawings back and forth, take your turn whenever you want, no live-game timer pressure.
- Random opponents: get matched with another HankyDoodle player and play one round at a time.
- Free draw: skip the games entirely and just draw. Save it, share it, or post it to the Showcase.
DRAWING TOOLS
Every tool, every color, all the time. No paywalls on drawing tools. An optional Premium subscription removes the banner ad and adds 32 superlikes a year, but it never gates a brush, a color, or a feature.
- Pencil with adjustable thickness
- Spray paint
- Line, rectangle, and ellipse shape tools
- Smart flood fill that handles imperfect closures
- Eraser, undo, and redo
- Full color picker
SHOWCASE
Browse community drawings from other HankyDoodle players, watch any drawing replay, and like the ones you love. Report or block content that isn't a fit; our moderators review every report within 24 hours.

out of the word suggestions, new gallery drawings are held back for a day
so anything reported never reaches them, and random opponents are off.
WORD OF THE DAY
+ Draw the word five days running and earn a superlike.
REACTIONS
+ A like that has aged out can still be upgraded to a superlike. 2026.192 Sep 5 WORD OF THE DAY
+ The card counts down the time left in the day, and gets more urgent as the
deadline gets close.
+ Standings freeze once the day ends and keep the order they finished in.
+ See where your drawing placed, with gold and silver ribbons for first and
second.
GALLERY
+ Thumbnails load more smoothly instead of all at once. 2026.189 Sep 3 Reactions: the single superlike is now forty different options. Pick one on the drawing you just guessed, or on anything in Showcase or the Word of the Day.
Superlikes: the subscription includes 32 a year, up from 12. If you already subscribe, the difference has been added to your balance.
Each day the top two artists on the Word of the Day earn superlikes. Two for first and one for second.
Forfeiting ends on the same card as a correct guess, so you can still react to the drawing.

Word of the Day: the card shows who has drawn today, and updates as soon as you close it.

On iPad the gallery fits more drawings per row. 2026.187 Aug 29 Fixed an issue where some letters were untappable when guessing. The letter bank now fills complete rows, so nothing slides off the bottom of the screen on longer words.
We have also improved the guess replay experience. 2026.183 Aug 27 Doodlepedia: publish a drawing to your Doodlepedia straight from the picker, and visit any player's Doodlepedia from their profile. Profile drawings now show superlikes alongside likes.
Tags: picked words can carry up to five tags. Tap the pill on the canvas to see, edit and reorder them; your own tag becomes the guesser's hint. Plus new community prompts (Video Games, Board Games, Muppets and more), a show/hide minimap toggle, and a tidier canvas menu.
Fixed an issue where no tags were showing on drawings of newly added words. Guessers now see every tag on a drawing, and clearing the tags on a word sends it with no tags on purpose. Long replays now finish within 30 seconds. 2026.176 Aug 26 New this release: tags on your drawings.
Picked words can now carry more than one tag. Tap the little pill on the canvas to see them all, edit them yourself, reorder them, and keep up to five. Try to send a drawing with no tags and we will check first so you can add some. Skip it and your guesser simply sees "No tags." When you set your own tag, that becomes the hint your guesser gets.
There is plenty of new stuff to draw, with community-suggested prompts across Video Games, Board Games, Muppets and more, and fewer everyday words getting blocked by mistake.
On the canvas you can now show or hide the minimap, and the menu is tidier. We also cleaned up how word prompts are written. 2026.164 Aug 24 Pick a new app icon. Settings now has an App Icon screen with a few designs to choose from.
Invite a friend with your friend code and you both get 3 superlikes when they redeem it.

Picked words can now carry more than one tag. Tap the little pill on the canvas to see them all, edit them yourself, reorder them, and keep up to five. Try to send a drawing with no tags and we will check first so you can add some. Skip it and your guesser simply sees "No tags." When you set your own tag, that becomes the hint your guesser gets.
There is plenty of new stuff to draw, with community-suggested prompts across Video Games, Board Games, Muppets and more, and fewer everyday words getting blocked by mistake.
On the canvas you can now show or hide the minimap, and the menu is tidier. We also cleaned up how word prompts are written. 2026.164 Aug 24 Pick a new app icon. Settings now has an App Icon screen with a few designs to choose from.
Invite a friend with your friend code and you both get 3 superlikes when they redeem it.
New Referrals screen in Settings shows who you invited and who invited you.
Letter tiles now slide into place when you shuffle them.

version 2026.288
posted on 2026-09-28
Version History + Generic fixes 2026.288 1d ago + New app icons! Pick one of 22 player drawings from the "New App Icon" Word of the Day in Settings › App Icon.
+ You stay signed in longer.
+ General fixes 2026.286 2d ago + Announcements. A megaphone next to Settings tells you what's new, with a badge when there is something you haven't read.
+ The Move tool is now available to everyone.
+ Family Mode can keep drawings that are fine for grown-ups but not for kids out of sight, and "Not safe for Family Mode" is a new report reason. Turn Family Mode on in Settings.
+ Word of the Day notifications now show the drawing.
+ The pen shows its size as a ring under your finger, and on Apple Pencil hover. The word you are drawing is back in the bar, and video exports now animate spray and fills instead of popping them in.
+ Preparation for upcoming iPhone devices. 2026.279 4d ago General fixes 2026.268 Sep 20 Bug fixes and improvements. 2026.261 Sep 19 Bug fixes and improvements. 2026.259 Sep 17 You now get 5 superlikes for joining the Discord. 2026.258 Sep 16 + Sort your games by last activity, streak or name, in either
direction, from the new Filter & Sort menu.
+ "Only my turn" now finds every game that's waiting on you, not
just your newest 100, and the counts are accurate.
+ At the end of a round, tap Replay to watch the finished drawing
again. 2026.254 Sep 11 DOODLEPEDIA
+ Pull down to refresh a category and your newest drawings show up right away.
+ Your collection keeps itself up to date, updating the moment you make a
drawing public or private, and it loads more reliably.
+ Plus a handful of behind-the-scenes fixes to keep things smooth. 2026.250 Sep 8 DRAWING
+ Fills are more precise and no longer bleed into nearby colours.
FAMILY MODE
+ One switch, kept where a grown-up put it with a PIN: grown-up prompts stay
out of the word suggestions, new gallery drawings are held back for a day
so anything reported never reaches them, and random opponents are off.
WORD OF THE DAY
+ Draw the word five days running and earn a superlike.
REACTIONS
+ A like that has aged out can still be upgraded to a superlike. 2026.192 Sep 5 WORD OF THE DAY
+ The card counts down the time left in the day, and gets more urgent as the
deadline gets close.
+ Standings freeze once the day ends and keep the order they finished in.
+ See where your drawing placed, with gold and silver ribbons for first and
second.

Superlikes: the subscription includes 32 a year, up from 12. If you already subscribe, the difference has been added to your balance.
Each day the top two artists on the Word of the Day earn superlikes. Two for first and one for second.
Forfeiting ends on the same card as a correct guess, so you can still react to the drawing.
Usernames are no longer rejected over words that were never a problem.
Word of the Day reminders can be switched off in Settings, and you can now be notified when someone else draws the Word of the Day (off by default). 2026.188 Sep 1 Guessing: all the letters now fit on screen, so you never have to shuffle to reach one.
Word of the Day: the card shows who has drawn today, and updates as soon as you close it.
Also fixed: a crash when sharing a video of a word with punctuation, the forfeit reveal showing the wrong letters on multi-word answers, and a crash in the avatar crop dialog at minimum zoom. On iPad the gallery fits more drawings per row. 2026.187 Aug 29 Fixed an issue where some letters were untappable when guessing. The letter bank now fills complete rows, so nothing slides off the bottom of the screen on longer words.
We have also improved the guess replay experience. 2026.183 Aug 27 Doodlepedia: publish a drawing to your Doodlepedia straight from the picker, and visit any player's Doodlepedia from their profile. Profile drawings now show superlikes alongside likes.

Version History Guessing: all the letters now fit on screen, so you never have to shuffle to reach one.
Word of the Day: the card shows who has drawn today, and updates as soon as you close it.
Also fixed: a crash when sharing a video of a word with punctuation, the forfeit reveal showing the wrong letters on multi-word answers, and a crash in the avatar crop dialog at minimum zoom. On iPad the gallery fits more drawings per row. 2026.187 1d ago Fixed an issue where some letters were untappable when guessing. The letter bank now fills complete rows, so nothing slides off the bottom of the screen on longer words.
We have also improved the guess replay experience. 2026.183 3d ago Doodlepedia: publish a drawing to your Doodlepedia straight from the picker, and visit any player's Doodlepedia from their profile. Profile drawings now show superlikes alongside likes.
Tags: picked words can carry up to five tags. Tap the pill on the canvas to see, edit and reorder them; your own tag becomes the guesser's hint. Plus new community prompts (Video Games, Board Games, Muppets and more), a show/hide minimap toggle, and a tidier canvas menu.
Fixed an issue where no tags were showing on drawings of newly added words. Guessers now see every tag on a drawing, and clearing the tags on a word sends it with no tags on purpose. Long replays now finish within 30 seconds. 2026.176 5d ago New this release: tags on your drawings.
Picked words can now carry more than one tag. Tap the little pill on the canvas to see them all, edit them yourself, reorder them, and keep up to five. Try to send a drawing with no tags and we will check first so you can add some. Skip it and your guesser simply sees "No tags." When you set your own tag, that becomes the hint your guesser gets.
There is plenty of new stuff to draw, with community-suggested prompts across Video Games, Board Games, Muppets and more, and fewer everyday words getting blocked by mistake.
On the canvas you can now show or hide the minimap, and the menu is tidier. We also cleaned up how word prompts are written. 2026.164 Aug 24 Pick a new app icon. Settings now has an App Icon screen with a few designs to choose from.
Invite a friend with your friend code and you both get 3 superlikes when they redeem it.
New Referrals screen in Settings shows who you invited and who invited you.
Letter tiles now slide into place when you shuffle them.
Your superlike balance is always visible in Settings, with a short guide to earning more. 2026.117 Aug 14 Minor improvements. 2026.112 Aug 12 New in this update:
