Switch from the native mobile app to the web app
With the native app retiring, Chat and Notes functionality have been removed from the iOS and Android apps. You'll still be able to access your history of Chat and Notes in those locations. Once the new Messages feature is rolled out, a read-only version of your Notes and a downloadable ZIP file with all your past Chat conversations will be accessible on the site, available by clicking the Note icon in the top navigation.

DeviantArt’s native iOS and Android apps are being phased out and replaced with the web app. It’s a superior, more powerful, and always up-to-date way to experience DeviantArt on mobile.
(Update: October 21, 2025)
The web app offers everything you love from the mobile website, plus push notifications and features that weren’t available in the native app, giving you a more consistent experience across devices.
What’s new compared to the previous app?
If you’re used to using DeviantArt’s mobile website, the new app will feel very familiar.
I am an amateur artist. I have been drawing, painting, and creating traditional art for decades. I have only recently been drawing digital paintings. I enjoy scifi, fantasy, and comic book related art.
