Mac
A tiny, native retro paint app for Mac. Classic 98 tools plus mosaic, stickers, and stamps. Multiple themes, customizable toolbox. No ads, no tracking.
TinyPaint is a small, fast, native paint app for Mac with the look and feel of a classic retro paint program. All the nostalgia of late-90s Paint, rebuilt natively for modern macOS—no bloat, no subscription, no cloud.
CLASSIC PAINT, DONE RIGHT
Draw with two colors at once: left-click paints with the foreground color, right-click with the background color, just like the Paint you remember. Pencil, brush, airbrush, fill, eraser, shapes, lines, curves, magnifier, color picker, and text are all here and behave the way they should.
MORE TOOLS THAN THE ORIGINAL
- Smart Eraser, Smart Airbrush, and Smart Line with adjustable size sliders
- Text tool with rotation and resize handles
- Censor / Mosaic tool to quickly hide a region
- Decor stickers and a Stamp tool for fun, fast edits
- Fill and color replace
MAKE IT YOUR STYLE
Switch between themes on the fly—Classic Retro 98, Flat 98, Liquid Glass 98, and a modern Graphite look. Choose compact "Minimize" layouts or "Ex" layouts with extra tools and larger icons. Pick a classic or colorful palette, set how many tool columns you want, and size the icons to taste.
PRIVATE BY DESIGN
No account. No ads. No analytics or tracking. Files, clipboard images, screenshots, and preferences are handled on your Mac only when you choose those features and are not uploaded by TinyPaint. An optional Buy Me a Coffee purchase is processed securely by Apple through the App Store.
Perfect for quick edits, pixel art, screenshots, diagrams, doodles, and anyone who misses the simple, no-nonsense paint apps of the late 1990s.
