How to Share and Send Procreate Brushes to Others (The Easiest Way)
Share your custom Procreate brushes with anyone — upload .brush or .brushset files and get a download link in seconds.
Custom brushes are one of the most valuable assets in the Procreate community. Whether you have created a unique brush set you want to give away, sell to customers, share with students in an art class, or distribute to your social media followers, you need a reliable way to send procreate brushes to someone regardless of where they are. You can AirDrop brushes to someone nearby, but that only works in person. Email works for small files, but brush sets can exceed attachment limits and the .brushset file format often gets blocked or corrupted by email providers. The easiest method is uploading your .brush or .brushset file to Smmall Cloud and sharing a download link. When the recipient taps the link on their iPad, the brush imports directly into Procreate — no matter where they are in the world.
Step-by-Step Guide
Export Your Brushes from Procreate
In Procreate, go to your brush library, swipe left on the brush or brush set you want to share, and tap "Share." Save the .brush or .brushset file to your Files app or share it directly to Smmall Cloud.
Tip: Share an entire brush set as a .brushset file rather than individual brushes. This makes it easier for recipients to import everything at once.
Upload to Smmall Cloud
Open smmall.cloud on your iPad or computer and upload the brush file. If you saved it to your Files app, you can select it from there. The upload takes only a moment since brush files are typically small.
Copy the Download Link
Once uploaded, Smmall Cloud gives you a shareable link. Copy it to share with other artists. When they tap the link on their iPad, the browser will offer to open the file in Procreate.
Tip: If you are distributing brushes to a large audience, the same link works for unlimited downloads.
Share with the Procreate Community
Post the link on social media, in Procreate forums, on your website, or send it directly to collaborators. Anyone with the link can download and install the brushes on their iPad.

What file format are Procreate brushes?
Individual brushes use the .brush extension, while brush sets use the .brushset extension. Both formats are supported by Smmall Cloud.
Can someone install the brush directly from the link on iPad?
Yes. When a recipient taps the Smmall Cloud link on their iPad, they can download the file and the system will offer to open it in Procreate, where it installs automatically.
Can I sell Procreate brushes using Smmall Cloud links?
You can use Smmall Cloud to host and deliver the brush file. For payment processing, pair it with a platform like Gumroad or your own checkout and deliver the Smmall Cloud link upon purchase.
Is there a limit on how many people can download my brushes?
No. The download link works for unlimited recipients. Share it with as many people as you like without re-uploading.
Can I share Procreate brushes via AirDrop?
Yes, but only to someone nearby. In Procreate, swipe left on the brush, tap Share, and choose AirDrop. The recipient needs to be within Bluetooth/Wi-Fi range and using an Apple device. For sharing with people who are not nearby, use a download link instead.
Can I email Procreate brush files?
You can try, but .brush and .brushset files are often blocked or stripped by email providers because they are not a standard file type. Even when the email goes through, attachments are limited to about 25 MB. For reliable sharing, upload the file and share a download link.
How do I share a whole brush pack or collection?
Export your brushes as a .brushset file from Procreate, then upload it to Smmall Cloud. You can also create a folder in Smmall Cloud and add multiple brush files to it, then share the entire folder with a single link.
How do I send Procreate brushes to someone?
The easiest way to send Procreate brushes to someone is to upload the .brush or .brushset file to Smmall Cloud and share the download link. You can send the link via text message, email, social media DM, or any messaging app. When the recipient opens the link on their iPad, the brush installs directly into Procreate.
Can I share Procreate brushes between iPad and iPhone?
Procreate is only available on iPad, so brushes can only be imported on an iPad. However, you can upload brush files from any device (including iPhone or a computer) to Smmall Cloud and share the link. The recipient then opens the link on their iPad to install the brushes into Procreate.
Where can I find free Procreate brushes to download?
Many artists share free Procreate brushes on sites like Gumroad, Creative Market, and Brushes for Procreate. You can also find them in Procreate community forums, Reddit, and on social media. Once you download a .brush or .brushset file, you can import it into Procreate by opening the file on your iPad.
