This can't-miss app is for when the best way for you to explain something to someone and fill in the gaps is with a [quick drawing](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/simple-drawing-ideas). The Clarisketch app lets you do this, even if that person isn't right beside you. By recording a [voiceover as you illustrate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/commenteasy) instructions, you can visually teach someone something remotely.

To use this can't-miss app, first take a picture. This could be of a washing machine, fuse box, map or anything else that needs explaining. Then you can [draw over top of it](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kindly-ink) as your voice records. The next and final step is simply to share. The shared sketch can be viewed on any browser and the person you send it to doesn't need to have the Clarisketch app downloaded.

This free app is available for Android devices.
