Ratings and reviews

An app solely dedicated to drawing Pixel Art: has ads that pop up in the middle of managing settings and such, however that's cleared by a small purchase; gathers Barely any info about you to boot! My highlight is that the app slowly eases you into the tools you use for the first time by a brief pop-up info modal when you click on a tool for the first time. Very helpful when I was figuring out how to draw on here, getting a handle on the app without much hassle. I Heartily recommend this app!!

I love this app. Easily the best pixel art program aside from maybe aseprite. My biggest complaint is that it consistently stops my music. I can't make pixel art and listen to music at the same time. Which would make a bit more sense if the app made noise but it doesn't.

It's very good for being a mobile pixel art editor. There are a few things I'd like to see improvements on, such as a hotkey for making lines and the line tool not being considered a shape (if there's a way to do this, make it more obvious) as well as an easier way to change the canvas size of a sprite in-edit (still not sure how to do this/if it's possible). Overall though, very well done app.
