Version 1.2 — Use Any Image as Your Pixel Art Starting Point
This update turns any photo, screenshot, or sketch into pixel art — or a guide to draw over.
Paste Image as Layer
Copy any image to your clipboard and paste it right into your canvas. The app instantly pixelizes it to match your canvas size and drops it in as a new layer. Choose from full color, grayscale, or outline-only mode. On Mac, just hit ⇧⌘V.
Import from Photos & Files
Don't have it on your clipboard? Pick an image straight from your photo library on iPhone and iPad, or from any file on your Mac. Same three modes — color, grayscale, and outline.
Outline Tracing
This one's a game-changer. Paste or import any image as an "Outline Only" and the app detects the edges between different-colored regions, drawing thin guide lines right on your canvas. It's like placing tracing paper over a reference image. Draw on top of it, then clear the overlay when you're done.
Thanks for drawing with us.
