Fansatic, Easy to use

I've been looking for software to do more than basic photo editing for a while since purchasing my 2019 iMac with a 3GHz 6-Core Intel Core i5 Processor, 16GB of Ram and 1TB SSD. I have tried several others like Affinity Photo but found Pixelmator Pro easier to use, others may have more features and offer closer to photoshop experience but for someone with not much experience beyond the basic photo editing, Pixelmator Pro gives me more than enough tools to let me acheive great results. With regular updates and more new features being added on a regular basis I would highly recommend Pixelmator Pro to anyone who is new to photo editng, allthough I've only been using it for a few weeks and I have personly not experienced any freezing of the app what's so ever unlike some comments made in other peoples reviews and I feel it was money well spent.

As everyone else says... very disspointing

Several years ago I moved across from a PC to a Mac and could not justify the expense of Adobe Photoshop so read the reviews of Pixelmator and decided to spend the relatively small sum of money to try it. I was extremely impressed. It was fast, had all the basic features I needed and always updating with new features and improvements. The only thing I personally did not like is floating windows which always get in the way for me. Race forward to 2018 and I decided to take the plunge with Pixelmator Pro. How could I go wrong? The company had always delivered. I was very wrong. I have a Macbook Pro wuth an 2.8Ghz i7 Processor, 8GB of RAM and 512GB SSD yet I do even a basic 2 layer low resolution graphic and then try and move an object and I might as well go and make a cup of tea and possibly drink it before the app unfreezes and completes the job. I have tried it with various images and always the same. If you full size the window the whole thing freezes and does not unfreeze unless you close the app. This has been ongoing for months. I have no other apps open when this occurs. When I restart the app it looks promising but then it returns to a very sluggish experience. I have the latest version v1.2.1. Total waste of money and my time. Such a shame.

Just Brilliant

My major project right now is scanning old 35mm negatives and slides, some are 50 years old and have the expected various defects such as scratches, colour fading and so on... I don't let the scanner software do any corrections, external image editors are far better at that! The user interface on Pixelmator Pro is clean and quite easy to drive, makes the manual correction I need to do quite easy. The "ML" (Machine learning) automatic algorithms for colour balance and exposure are a great way of getting close to where things need to be quickly. An additional bonus for me is the ability to then pick up the scanned image (I use TIFF format for scanning) I can quietly then use my iPad and Pixelmator photo for manually editing blemishes, scratches etc... All very good indeed!
