Storage:
By default, Artecture saves artworks in the "Artecture" folder on your device in .bme file format, which can only be opened or viewed by the Artecture Gallery. You can also export to .bmp format for broader compatibility. To reuse a .bmp file, simply insert it using the insert option. The app allows you to change the storage location, and the Gallery can detect .bme artworks from any location on your device.
Sharing:
Share your creations easily by uploading artworks to Facebook and PenUp from both the canvas and gallery. You can also share via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi Direct, MMS, email, Shareit, and other apps installed on your device.
