About this app

# Using FreePaint
## Paint tool Using this tool, you can either draw open or closed paths. Simply go to the overflow menu > Settings to access this and more options.
## Eraser tool When you select this tool, you can draw a shape to define the area you wish to erase. One of two things can happen depending on which path you want to erase from: For closed paths, the entire path will become green, and you can draw a shape to erase from the path. For open paths, individual points will become highlighted, and if those points are included in your eraser path, they will be deleted. Erasing a point inside a path will create 2 new paths.
## Pan/zoom tool With one finger, you can pan across the document. If you pinch the screen with two, it'll zoom in and out from the center.
## Selection tool You can draw a rectangle for an area you wish to select (marquee select). If any paths overlap that area, they will become "selected" and the rectangle will resize to include the selected paths. You can drag on that rectangle to move those paths, or draw on an empty space to create a new selection.

How to install this safely
How to verify the file you downloaded
Before you install anything, confirm the file is the one described here. On a computer, run shasum -a 256 your-download.apk (macOS or Linux) or certutil -hashfile your-download.apk SHA256 (Windows), then compare the output character-for-character with the SHA-256 on this page. If a single character differs, the file is not the build we recorded — delete it.
What the signing certificate proves
Every Android app is signed with a private key that only its developer holds. The fingerprint on this page is a hash of the matching public certificate, and it proves continuity rather than identity: it tells you a build came from whoever signed the earlier ones. Android enforces this at install time — if a package claiming to be io.github.pastthepixels.freepaint is signed with a different key, the system will refuse to install it over your existing copy. A fingerprint that changes between releases is worth pausing on, because a repackaged app that has been modified by someone else cannot keep the original signature.
How to roll back to an earlier version
If the current release misbehaves, 1.1.0 is the last build before it. Android will not install an older version code over a newer one, so you must uninstall FreePaint first — which clears its local data unless you have a backup. Reinstall the older APK only if its signing fingerprint matches the build you already trust, and check the API range: an older release may target an Android version your device has moved past.
Why we list sources instead of hosting everything
The official store channel is almost always the right choice: it updates automatically and carries the publisher's own distribution guarantees. A direct APK is useful when a device has no store access, when a rollout has not reached your region, or when you need a specific version — and only when the publisher has authorized that copy. APKBrowse does not list pirated, cracked, or unauthorized rebuilds of FreePaint, and a listing is removed when the evidence for it stops holding up.
