Step-by-step guides for Doodle Dragon Studio: making your first book, generating illustrations, adding narration, exporting, and managing your plan.
Every guide here is written for the actual app, in the order the screens appear. If a guide is wrong or a screen has moved, tell us and we will fix the page — the email is at the bottom of every article.

Start here
If you have just installed the app, these three are the whole tour.
Getting started
Install the app, understand the four main screens, and make your first page in about ten minutes.
Create your first project
Build a complete six-page picture book from start to finish, using drawings or photos you already have.
Export a PDF or video
Turn a finished project into a page-by-page PDF, a story video, or a portable project archive — and what to do when export fails.
Making pictures
Drawing, importing, editing, and generating the images that fill your pages.
Sketch to illustration
Draw or import a sketch, review the description and style, and generate a finished illustration that still looks like the original drawing.
Photo to illustration
Import a photo, review the description the app produces, and generate a storybook illustration based on it.
Edit photos on device
Adjust light and colour and apply looks — free, offline, and without overwriting your originals.
Write a better prompt
The description field decides what you get. Here is how to write one that produces the picture you actually had in mind.
Building the book
Turning pictures into pages, and pages into something worth keeping.
AI page planning
Turn one premise into editable page text, layouts, and artwork ideas, then match or create artwork for selected pages.
Edit story pages
Change the words, swap pictures, reorder pages, choose layouts, and understand what happens when a page is deleted.
Add narration and music
Record yourself reading the book, import audio, generate narration, and add background music that ducks under the voice.
Create AI video
Animate a still picture, connect two frames, or continue the previous scene — and understand what each option costs before you press generate.
Your account and plan
Subscriptions, credits, restoring purchases, and deleting your account.
Manage subscription
Subscribe, restore purchases, change plan, cancel, and understand what happens to your books afterwards.
Understand your credits
What a credit is, what each action costs, when credits reset, and when they come back automatically.
Back up and move projects
Export a portable .ddstory archive or use optional Studio Plus cloud backup to restore projects on another device.
Delete your data
How to delete a page, asset, project, local app data, or your signed-in account, and which actions can be undone.
Start with one drawing
Download Doodle Dragon Studio, pick a sketch off the fridge, and see it as a finished page in a few minutes. The free tier is genuinely free — no trial clock, no credit card.
