## What is PicMix?

Blend your photos together into an amazing work of art!

With this app you have complete freedom over which parts of the photos you want to keep. You can remove (or re-add) parts of the images with your fingers, like painting. Change the settings of the brush for fine-tuning. With this technique you can create montages, replace backgrounds or combine pictures any possible way you can imagine. You can also create semi-transparent layers of photos.

Multi-layer support to manipulate multiple layers separately, similar to professional desktop photo editing applications. Color-sensitive brush follows the edges automatically when cutting out shapes.

You can also store the cutouts you made, so they can be reused for different montages.

## Key features

- Photo blending

### 5/5 — Great app for pre-iOS 27

*2026-07-30*

For $2 lifetime this app is a steal. I’ve never had any issues with it thru iPad OS 26. But, alas, its days may be numbered as it does not work with 27 Beta. Fingers crossed that it will with the final 27 build, but since the developer hasn’t pushed an update in 5 years (understandable, it’s a small app and long in the tooth), I’ll have to rely on luck.

### 5/5 — App crashes

*2026-06-24*

The app is constantly crashing when you try to add layers. Very frustrating.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-06-24*

I got this app a week ago and it’s awesome, the only thing that can think would be to add some buttons like up, down, left and right to move the layers more delicate. And a quick option to add transparency to the layers so you can see what’s behind, place it when it’s ready and remove the transparency. Oh and if possible maybe add the ability to edit the color, light, focus, etc from each layer. Other than that it worth the value

### 3/5 — Perfect, simple app but unfortunately a bug has crept in.

*2025-07-20*

When you try to add transparent PNGs it adds artefacts to the foreground layer.

### 5/5 — Good fun!

*2025-07-01*

I love this app! Its easy to use and I have a lot of fun making memes with this for fun haha

### 1/5 — Fix thia paid for app.

*2025-07-01*

Was a good app, now it crashes every time I open it, I can’t even get to the projects page. 

Is it hogging resources? I have a brand new iPhone and it crashes on launch.

### 1/5 — Stopped working

*2025-06-07*

I have been using the paid version of this app for years and it has stopped saving my progress when I try to merge layers on a project. Also tried to contact customer support and the developer website seems to not be working either.

### 3/5 — Deteriorating

*2025-04-21*

PixMix you have been my all star. My favorite. My queen. For YEARS. But you have not been able to pull in a transparent PNG image without issue in quite some time, and I may have to move on from you unless you get it together. 💔

### 3/5 — I Prefer the Lite Version

*2024-04-04*

After years of having the lite version, I finally bought the full version when I decided I wanted the convenience of being able to use as many layers as I want. As soon as I began playing with the full version, I noticed that as soon as I enter a photo into the app, the quality becomes way worse. I didn’t even have that issue with the lite version. I am very frustrated by this because I paid money and my photos are turning out worse than when I had a free app. I also feel like the color sensitivity feature could be a little better for an app that is paid for. It helps, but I usually have to manually make many fixes.

### 1/5 — App use to be great

*2023-12-18, version 3.3.6*

Doesn’t load, glitches.
