"Pixel Art Maker" is a drawing tool for pixel art like a retro game. ◇ Easy to use You can draw a pixel art soon after Launching the app. ◇ Import a photo Pixelate a photo. ◇ Create an animated pixel art. Draw one pixel art, copy it, and then you can draw an animation. Feathers: • Draw a pixel art of 8x8〜256x256 pixel size. (I recommend 16x16 or 32x32 pixel size.) • Change Color pallet(limited to 32 colors). • Zoom the picture to draw. (you can pinch in and out your pixel art with your two fingers.) • Load and save drawing data. • Load your photo from Photos. • Export a pixel art with a transparent color. • Enlarge the image up to 2048x2048 to export. • Save your picture to Photos. • Send the picture to another app. • Export animated gif file (If the canvas size is 128 x 128 or less, an animation is up to 256 frames. For larger sizes, it is up to 64 frames. ) * An animated gif file is saved in Photos, But it is not animated on Photos. • Finger Mode Mode Finger is a default mode. Draw points with your finger directly on the screen. • Cursor mode Move your finger on the screen to move the cursor and press the "PIXEL" button to draw a point. Push "Menu" -> "Settings" -> "Change Drawing Mode" button to switch to cursor mode. • Remove Ads(Premium.) * When running this app on an Apple Silicon Mac (iPad version), photo import has the following limitations: 1. Animated images (e.g., GIF) are not supported. 2. Photos may be imported at low resolution.

Everything I’ve been looking for

I make crochet tapestry’s and I’ve been looking for an app that I can make images into grids and then edit them to make them compatible with my medium. This app does all that. I can customize the size of the grid, i can put in the image, and I can manually edit it to tweak everything perfectly all with no payment or subscription, which their competitors were not able to. Amazing app and I will use it many times. The only thing that I can’t figure out(I’m not very tech savvy tho so this could just be me) is how to have multiple grids saved in the app at once as I’m usually working on multiple projects at once. Overall amazing!

I’ve always wanted to make sprites, even animated ones, and this app hits pretty much every nail on the head in this regard. You can also save the sprites as images, including animated gifs to your phone/tablet, which makes it even better.If I have one gripe, it’s that the “Copy Color” option to transfer a specific color to all other animation frames doesn’t work, forcing me to have to manually change the color of each unique sprite in said animation. Not the worst thing in the world, but makes things a tad more tedious; an update to fix this would take this app from being excellent to perfect.

Excellent Free App

I love how simple it is. I don’t need my color palette saved, I don’t need any pictures saved. The colors are easy to toggle. You can export directly to apps like godaddy studio (formerly Over) keeping the transparent background. If I had one note that is it. Exporting by saving the pic should keep the transparent instead of making that are white. But like I said there’s ways around it and I love that. Larger canvases (smaller pixels) would be nice but considering the app is asking for so little and the ads are so minimal there’s nothing not to like.

My personal favorite pixel art tool

This is my personal favorite pixel art tool personally. Also to keep in mind I am an amateur and I have very crappy handwriting. However how this works is that everything is grid based. You chose a color and put that color in that tiny square on the grid. (It more works like a very tiny paint bucket tool for each square.) That personally makes it very convenient for me and I will recommend anyone who is interested on getting into Pixel art but doesn’t have much experience on it at all to get the PixelArt app.

I have addressed issues that mainly occur when using the app for a long time. 1. Reduced Data Size I improved the pixel art storage format and implemented PNG compression to reduce file sizes. Existing pixel art will be migrated to the new format when saved as an update. 2. Faster Loading Screen I optimized the loading and display of the pixel art list to ensure smooth operation. 3. Improved Stability - Improved UI and fixed rare crash bugs.
