What's New in Photo to Painting

6.0.4

July 6, 2026

Introducing Projects This update introduces the new Projects feature. You can now save your edits as projects, allowing you to return and continue your creative work at any time. To enhance usability, we have redesigned the start and finish screens for improved project management and clarity. Projects are automatically synchronized across your devices via iCloud, ensuring seamless access wherever you work. Resume Your Last Editing Session With this update, you can now pick up right where you left off. Our app remembers your unfinished edits, so even if you close it, you can return and continue your work seamlessly. This is the first step toward our upcoming Projects feature. OS 26 and UI improvements We’ve updated the app to run smoothly on the latest operating systems. You’ll notice better performance and improved stability. We also introduce a new fresh look with Liquid Glass. Several screens now feature the new Liquid Glass UI, giving your artwork more space and a cleaner editing experience. Improved Zoom & Canvas Placement We’ve redesigned the zoom view, so your canvas is easier to position — no more sliders getting in the way of your edits! More Precision and Control We've refined all sliders for better control and understandability. You can now see exact values and reset them easily—just double-tap the slider or tap the default value. The signature tool has also been improved, allowing you to move, rotate, and scale your signature freely with touch gestures. Custom Vignettes We've given the vignettes a massive overhaul! This update includes 13 new expressive vignettes and advanced customization tools. But that’s not all: You can now personalize your artwork even more by adding your own vignette images. Additionally, our new Auto Retouch feature ensures your main subject stands out. Custom Signatures You can now add your own logo, watermark, or signature to your artwork. Simply load your own signature from Files or Photos. Unleash Your Creativity! Discover our exciting new tools designed to give you enhanced creative control over your Color, Canvas, and Vignette filters. Plus, you now have the power to retouch every tool, old and new, for even more precision and personalization. Streamline Your Edits! We’ve organized your favorite photo adjustment tools —like contrast and saturation— into a single, easy-to-access menu for a smoother editing experience. Plus, every photo adjustment tool is now fully retouchable, giving you ultimate control over your edits. UX Improvements We've made significant improvements across all platforms to enhance your experience. The user interface is now more intuitive, with features like hover support for iPad and improved Retouch Tools with a clear visual indicator of the retouch area. macOS Support Our app is now a native macOS app, offering enhanced performance and features. We've expanded device compatibility to include Intel Macs, ensuring a wider range of users can enjoy the app. To streamline your workflow, we've optimized the user experience with keyboard shortcuts, intuitive navigation, and a sleek, native macOS design. Plus, seamless Finder and file-system integration makes loading and saving images a breeze. Image Playground** Produce fun, original images in seconds with Image Playground directly on your device.

Fun

Just opened the app took 5 min to produce next painting project.

It could be better

It does not look like a painting. Enhanced photo. You should have the colors as an option not already established. You don’t allow any individuality.
