From converting a picture into a pattern with the bead manufacturer and size of your choosing (I use Artkal mini), through letting you adjust picture settings, on to letting you adjust the pattern in detail, and letting you export the pattern with all the details. It even has an amazing tool for helping you actually bead the pattern, it helps with the counting, it can highlights all the bead of a specified color, and so on. I really love this app!

### 5/5 — The best app I’ve found for bead patterns!

*2026-06-27, version 3.11*

I’ve created so many beautiful bead patterns with this app, and it’s incredibly easy to use. One of my favorite features is that the patterns are automatically adjusted to fit the exact number of beads on the pegboard, which makes planning projects so much easier. The editing tools are intuitive, the workflow is smooth, and creating new designs is fast and enjoyable. The premium version is absolutely worth the price. It has become an essential part of my creative process. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Best App for Fuse Bead Art

*2026-06-05*

I have been using PerlyPop for a month or so and have created some very big and cool projects!!!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review, we're really glad you're enjoying the app :)

### 5/5 — Best Perler App EVER

*2026-02-10, version 3.9*

I never write reviews. This app is a dream to use

### 4/5 — Game changer

*2025-12-02, version 3.8.1*

I’ve been a bead artist for 10 years, this app has made beading so much easier and faster.

### 2/5 — mid app for making perler patterns

*2025-11-26, version 3.8.1*

kandipad was down so i used this to make a pattern...
every basic thing such as moving the pattern was paywalled and the beads are so unpleasing to look at and its hard to tell how many beads away something is because the background when you export it is a plain colour and not a checkered pattern like most pattern making apps/sites

use kandi pad, its better, not paywalled and you can share your stuff

### 5/5 — Instrumental to Perler Aficionados

*2025-11-15*

Oh this app is instrumental. Gone are the days of me squinting at blurry pixelated images online and trying to carefully follow along and making tons of mistakes. While it takes a little extra work to create the bead pattern design, it truly makes life so much easier. You can map out everything, using what colors you have on hand, choose how you want it laid out, and have at it. I highly recommend!

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review, we're really glad you're enjoying the app :)

### 5/5 — Mise à jour

*2025-11-01*

Bonjour, alors déjà à ceux qui hésitent à prendre l’application, lancez vous, elle vaux largement plus que sont mini prix ! 
Au développeur : j’aimerai savoir si vous allez ajouter la nouvelle gamme de perles artkal mini M compatible avec la gamme C. J’ai tellement hâte de la prendre, j’attend juste que vous implantiez la nouvelle gamme pour créer mes motifs et acheter selon mes besoin ^^ 
Toujours ravie de cette application après plusieurs année.

**Developer response:** Réponse mise à jour : Bonjour, la dernière version (3.8) inclut désormais la palette « Artkal mini M Series ». Nous espérons que cela vous sera utile :)

---

Merci pour votre avis. Nous sommes ravis que l'application vous plaise.

Vous pouvez désormais ajouter vos propres couleurs à l'application. Accédez simplement à l'onglet « Palettes » sur l'écran d'accueil > « + » > « Nouvelle couleur ».

Nous espérons que cela vous sera utile.

### 5/5 — Fantastic app

*2025-09-14, version 3.5*

I absolutely love this app. I was very nervous to spend $20 dollars on it, but it’s definitely worth it. I do wish I could make folders to separate my pattern in instead of just tags, but other than that it’s perfect. The print feature is my absolute favorite!

### 5/5 — Best app for perler beads!

*2025-07-29, version 3.3*

The most useful app for creating custom perler projects. Very well thought out work flow and options. Worth every penny.

### 5/5 — Lifesaver!

*2025-07-08*

Loving this app even more after the vertical orientation update. This app helps me design perlers without having to struggle with pegboards and beads and the hazards of having cats (and clumsiness) that might knock over a work in progress. Even for just designing pixel art, the UI is simple and intuitive to pick up, and the constricted art pallets help plan out projects without having to guess the closest matching color.

**Developer response:** Thank you so much for your review, we're really glad you're enjoying the app :)
