Is procreate.apktodo.io legit or a scam?
This site promotes a fake 'Procreate for Android' download, a known malware lure for an app that officially only exists on Apple devices.
These checks passed — but they don't clear the site. A clean antivirus result, valid SSL, and a calm server only mean it isn't hosting malware; they say nothing about whether the business is real. This verdict is based on the site's conduct and content, not a malware detection.

MT Intelligence
The storefront is a clear imitation of the legitimate Procreate brand, but it targets Android users with a 'Premium Unlocked' APK. Our research confirms that the developer, Savage Interactive, has never released an Android version of Procreate. The site uses a 'Dovin Dev LLC' name to appear legitimate, but this entity has no affiliation with the real software. Multiple security reports and community warnings identify this specific 'Procreate for Android' pattern as a delivery mechanism for viruses and credential stealers. The lack of verifiable business registration and the use of a modded-app template further confirm the high risk.
Web Research Findings
Our live research agent queries scam-report databases, consumer-review sites, news coverage, and general web search for procreate.apktodo.io, then cross-checks business-registration records and look-alike domain patterns. Everything below is pulled from what it actually found.
- The domain procreate.apktodo.io hosts a page titled 'Procreate MOD APK 1.0 (Premium Unlocked) Download For Android' that offers an unofficial Android package with claims of brushes, layers, filters, and stylus support.
- Page explicitly states it is 'presented online as an unofficial Android package' and warns that 'safety, stability, update support, and actual features can vary by source and device' and 'unofficial files do not offer the same trust level'.
- Listed developer is 'Dovin Dev LLC' (also seen on other fake art apps); this is not Savage Interactive Pty Ltd, the real Procreate developer whose apps are iPad/iPhone exclusive.
- apktodo.io (parent site) has mixed signals: Scamadviser says 'very likely not a scam but legit and reliable' with Tranco rank 50 and 3+ year age, but notes hidden WHOIS owner, high-spam registrar, mixed reviews, and file-sharing risks; Trus
- Multiple sources (Reddit, YouTube, Softonic, Uptodown) confirm there is no official Procreate for Android; searches for it frequently lead to scams, viruses, or unrelated clone apps like 'Procreate Paint'.
- The site is part of a network of similar MOD APK subdomains on apktodo.io promoting cracked/premium unlocked versions of popular apps.
- No direct malware detections found for this exact subdomain in scans, but downloading modded APKs from such sites carries inherent risks of malware, as noted in security discussions.
- YouTube (Brad's Art School)open
"PSA: Don't Download Procreate for Android... DON'T FALL FOR IT, IT'S A VIRUS. The only safe place to get it is the Apple App Store it's not available for Android at this time."
- Trustpilot (apktodo.io)open
"Decided to download Ebi dex exchange using Apktodo for the first time... Apps showing expired, saying I need to upgrade to premium and this was as not mentioned initially now my assets are stuck in there and there's nothing I can do."
Procreate is an iOS/iPad-only app by Savage Interactive; no official Android version exists. The site promotes a 'MOD APK (Premium Unlocked)' version falsely claiming Procreate features for Android.
