My .brushset file won't import into Procreate. What should I do?

Make sure you downloaded a .brushset file, then tap it in the Files app (or Share to Procreate). If it still fails, restart Procreate and your iPad, then try importing again.

I imported the brushset, but I can't find the brushes. Where did they go?

In Procreate, open the Brush Library and look for a newly created brush set (often near the top). If you have many sets, use the search bar in the Brush Library to find brushes by name.

Troubleshoot Procreate Brushset Import

If your .brushset won't import, or your brushes don't show up after import, use this checklist.

1. Confirm the file type

You should have a .brushset file. If you downloaded a zip file, extract it first so you can tap the .brushset.

2. Import from the iPad Files app

Open Files, find your .brushset, then tap it. Procreate should open and import automatically.

3. Try "Share" → Procreate

If tapping the file doesn't import, long-press the file in Files and choose Share, then select Procreate (if available).

4. If it imported, but you can't find it

Open Procreate → Brush Library and look for a newly added brush set.
Use the Brush Library search bar and search for "Ruah".
If you imported multiple times, you may have duplicates. Delete the extra set(s).

5. Restart and try again

Close Procreate completely (swipe away), restart your iPad, then re-import the .brushset.
