As a surface pattern designer, perfecting your seamless repeat patterns is key to creating stunning designs. But let’s face it—sometimes the process can get cumbersome, especially when you have to switch between apps and devices. That’s why we developed the Pattern Tester on Professional Digital Brushes—a tool designed to let you test your patterns directly from your iPad, making it more convenient than ever to refine your designs on the fly!

How do I Test My Repeat Patterns on iPad?

Our Pattern Tester is a versatile tool tailored for surface pattern designers, letting you preview, scale, adjust, AND print or save your seamless patterns—all directly from your iPad. Whether you’re commuting, sitting at a café, or sketching in your studio, you can refine your pattern tiles without needing a desktop computer. Everything happens right on your iPad, allowing you to test as you go and keep your creative momentum flowing.

How Does It Work?

The Pattern Tester is designed for speed and convenience:

Drag and drop your pattern directly from your iPad into the tool for an instant preview. No file transfers or switching between apps—everything stays in one place.
Adjust the scale of your pattern in real-time to see how it repeats, letting you perfect your design to any size without the guesswork.
Download the preview directly from the tool, or use our Procreate integration to drag your tile into a layer in Procreate, giving you immediate visual feedback on your work.
