Alekhya combines drawing, animation, compositing, and navigable depth in a single iPad application.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-31 issue.

Field notes

The application builds depth from marks rather than imported primitive geometry: strokes occupy scene space, while relief and solids begin with forms the user draws. Animation combines held frame-by-frame cels with interpolated keyframes on one timeline, including camera moves and a graph editor. The manual reportedly covers 748 controls, and the listed beta build can import Photoshop .abr brush tips and export stills, movies, image sequences, and self-contained project files.
