Found! More stars if cellular found

I’ve only just begun trying it out, but I can’t find the cellular menu item in patterns yet which would be three more stars, any help out there? Oh., you have to look in the sample.s and then it shows up in the menu system if you choose the cellular,hmmm… look forward to using it

This app is underrated…!

Seriously.

Not sure why this doesn’t have more reviews!

Love this app, lol please don’t forget about it! If you want to make your own digital papers that are completely seamless and tileable then try this app! I’m pretty sure it’s free but you can export bigger papers like 3,000x3,000 and other features if you buy the pro version or whatever it’s called. It’s a one time payment of $2.99 or close to that and to me it’s definitely worth it.

Unique Paper Textures

This is a handy app for anyone who needs to create paper textures. They can then be used in painting apps like Procreate to add a life-like dimension to brushstrokes. The best part is that you can import images from your library to make unusual, one-of-a-kind papers.

Most of the features are fairly self-explanatory, but the contextual help clued me in to some I missed.
