とっても使いやすい

レガシーになってたので新しい4を買おうかと思ったけど日本語がないのが残念。すごく便利だからずっと使えればいいなとおもいます。

Stopped working

Worked great but the color picker has stopped working and i cant fix it

Pro update price

The update to pro 4 thats offered at a discounted price, doesn’t currently work. Apple charges $31 instead of the $6 please fix this.

値段分の品質は欲しい

At least want the pen has pixel perfect function.

Great app.

Really good app. Good fun and the team have excellent customer support. Buy this!

Are you serious?

If i update my pixaki 3 i pay more money than new pixaki 4 users. It's not fair!!!

Canvas size is so small

Wasted money and now for nothing as the canvas size only goes up to 1024 x 1024

Great for pixel art

I use this app exclusively now for anything pixel related, it’s great and has all the features needed but could use some comfort features like alpha lock and rotating the canvas.
If you’re looking for an app to do pixel art this is the one you need !

It’s okay

The app seems to be the best option for iPad, however it is far from perfect and the price is pretty steep considering the tools available.

In my eyes there are two main things that this app is missing.

The first being some kind of free selection or lasso tool. Currently the only thing available is a box selection which feel strange to use coming from Photoshop and Asprite.

The second issue is the brush and fill tools don’t have opacity setting which for me helps with blending colors.

Don’t get me wrong the app is pretty solid but has just a few shortcomings. However after some research I noticed the developer has been promising these features for over 2 years. Makes me a bit nervous that they may never be implemented.

An easy to use program

I am really enjoying the simplicity of this program. It is my favorite out of all of the iPad apps for pixel art. The only tool for me that is missing would be a lasso tool. Otherwise would be a 5/5!

Frustrating to use

I found this app frustrating to use. Not unusable in the slightest, but at $25 enough for me to request a refund. Lots of erroneous input from my hand on the screen, managing layers is a bit clunky. All the tools you should need are present in the app, I just couldn’t establish a good workflow.

The Best

The Best pixel art app for iOs

Really good, not a superstar yet

This app is great, it has most of the needed tools for an easy and useful pixel art workflow, although it’s still missing a couple of stuff to make the it the professional tool it can really be.

- a better Apple Pencil integration for starters, it already supports working with the pencil, but it is sometimes buggy, and some behaviors are a bit weird

- missing a real rotation feature, you can rotate selections only in chunks of 90deg, which is okay, but not very useful for most cases, specially for character animations and such

- missing an animation preview and timeline, the animation workflow can be so much better with a small preview option on the side, and a timeline view per layer, layers should somehow have a relation between the frames, so you can keep one layer per frame and only animate the needed layers

- this may seem trivial, but the palette creation process is kind of confusing, it would be cool if the app had a better palette Managment procedure, its okay at the moment, but it’s not always clear what the app wants

All that being said, it’s still a very good product, and I really enjoy using it! Thank you for the great work!

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Good start but I’m expecting a lot more free features for the price that we paid because it’s kind of lacking now

Too pricey

Overall the app has a good flow but is lacking on basic options like a lazo tool selection, been able to freely rotate objects and not only on 90 or 180 degrees, or to scroll in the timeline without having to play the whole animation.

Compared with other apps like procreate or art studio pro, Pixaki is too limited and too expensive.

Fantastic app, but could use more work.

I am really enjoying this app and have no regrets about purchasing it. I do however, think it could use a little attention in terms of how smooth it is to use.

It is very easy to accidentally switch colours, linger for more than a second in an area and you’ll have dabbed that colour instead, including the grey starting back ground.

I find I need a barrier between my hand and my screen, as it is too easy to accidentally add an extra pixel.

A lasso tool, symmetry and something to count how many pixels you have in a straight line, as mentioned by other reviewers, would also be extremely beneficial to this app and something I’d love to see added in the future.

While I am having great fun with this app at the moment, these few little niggles are interrupting my flow. Once these points are addressed, the app will be perfect!

Needs a bit more

This app doesn’t feel like it’s worth £20. I’m sorry but it doesn’t support clipping masks, there’s no colour wheel. Lasso tool is missing too. This app has a lot of potential and the fact it supports so many file formats is what really drew me to it. I’ll probably use it as an exporting tool but I doubt I’ll use it for anything more at the moment.

Excellent App

This is a wonderful app to use. Intuitive, clean and simple to use interface.
I have been using it almost every day since I purchased it.
Perhaps in the next few updates it could use the addition of a mirror tool and blurr settings. The pre installed palettes are quite limited also, so a few extra would be nice.
Otherwise I love it.

Great app but missing many basic features

I love the clean interface, and overall it's a great app. I've been using it over a year now to make art for a game in addition to Photoshop. It's pretty effective for large projects as long as they don't get too complex. The shape options like the line and circle work great! It exports to PSD nicely but doesn't import as well. Still, I've used it for months and it's mostly a pleasure.

But I have a lot to say with regards to what it lacks. I wouldn't bother if I didn't like the app to begin with.

Pixaki is missing many basic tools found in programs a third of its price. There's no lasso tool, so you can only select a rectangle and can't even add or subtract from the selection. You can't select based on color (magic wand), which is critical for pixel art. I'm far from the only person who desires these “features”. There's also no layer grouping or blending effects like soft light. At least there's a continuous/discontinuous option with the paint bucket. The option is clearly labeled, too.

The animation tool is fluid, the app is fun and easy to use. But it's kind of pricey. I'm shocked that for the price of a professional piece of software, this app is missing important functionality. The developers don't seem to be responding to the community's call for support in these areas. It's too bad, this could be the pixel art equivalent of Procreate. Like Aseprite but for iOS.

As pixel art apps go, this one still seems to be the best one. A bit overpriced, kind of underfunctioning and yet the only real thing out there. Please Razer, please make this app better!

Good but

Would love a colour wheel and the ability to group layers
