Windows Beta ETA
The Windows open beta is scheduled to start a couple of weeks after our initial (non-beta) launch on macOS. We are hoping for May, but it could slip.
There is not a lot of windows-specific work left to do (our codebase is crossplatform, with very little platform specific code), but we need to stay focused on finishing macOS first.
Other Platforms
We hope to reach beta stage on iPad and high-end Android tablets sometime in Q3 of 2026.

Beta Open Issues
Please take a look at our Compatability page for general information about how Ochre is compatible with Procreate.
Below is a number of issues still being worked on for this beta.
Limited Number of Demo Brushes
Currently only demo brushsets are included in the beta releases. We are holding back the full set of brushes that will be available in the initial launch.
Note however that the initial release will have a very sparse set of brushes. We are targeting around 10 brushes.
