Yes

### 5/5 — I like it!

*2026-10-19, version 5.52*

Really easy to use, you pick it up really fast. Ad free version is only two bucks which I appreciate. You get a solid foundation for pixel art from the free version. If you’re going for big projects, I’d go pro or perhaps turn elsewhere. But for people like me using this for fuse bead designs, it works great

### 3/5 — meh

it’s lowkey kinda confusing and i wish we can resize how big we want the pixels

*2026-10-15, version 5.52*

I am a beginner modded for melon sandbox and this pixel art studio is PERFECT!! It has helped me make countless great projects and is definitely one of the best apps I've installed. Would recommend

### 5/5 — Great introduction to pixel art

*2026-10-12, version 5.52*

After watching some videos online, I wanted to give pixel art a shot, but didn’t really know where to start. Thankfully, I found this app which doesn’t go overboard with options making it easy to understand, but still gives you the opportunity to get more advanced with settings if you’d like to. Within two minutes of downloading the app I already had my pen to my tablet and was doodling away.

### 5/5 — Very user friendly

*2026-10-12, version 5.52*

This has been very easy to use and has been a great tool while I’ve been learning this

### 1/5 — Trash on iPad

*2026-08-26, version 5.52*

I can’t even do anything it just sucks all it does is let me add 2 pixels then it starts randomly placeing pixels the complete opposite area. I was trying to put it on then it’ll just break.

### 1/5 — I won’t work it keeps going to small☹️😡

*2026-08-11, version 5.52*

😡

### 1/5 — Angry

*2026-07-16, version 5.47*

It’d getting saved too files and I dunno how to fix it. 😡

### 1/5 — Broken Undo and Pan, Corrupting Images

*2026-07-04, version 5.47*

I used to love this app, but the undo (and pan?) function has taken many hours of my hard work. I can’t for the life of me understand the rhyme or reason, but randomly trying to zoom will cause my current layer to corrupt, with pixels scattered all across the canvas. I really do love this app, but I can’t trust it.

### 1/5 — Very Upset No Support For Aesprite

*2026-06-18, version 5.47*

I really liked this app but the support for Aesprite has cause me to reconsider other apps . Its frustrating to be locked in with all my drawing. Especially since i paid for the app thinking ill have Aesprite support

### 1/5 — Can’t load its own recommended color palettes.

*2026-06-16, version 5.47*

App claims that only 256+ is paid, but the paid pop up comes up even for default recommended 64 color sets. Waste of a download. Also, ngl, the interface is SUPER rough for what they want for the paid version, and the GitHub help wiki is absolutely pitiful.

### 1/5 — Won’t let me look at my past projects

*2026-04-18, version 5.47*

I can’t look at my past projects because the maximum px is 1024 x 1024. My past projects are like 2048 x 2048, so the app won’t let me open them

### 1/5 — Too glitchy

*2026-01-10, version 5.42*

Too glitchy

### 1/5 — Very helpful

*2025-12-24, version 5.42*

Gave me great viruses and errors 😀😀👍👍

### 1/5 — Strange “shortcuts”?

*2025-12-12, version 5.42*

There’s weird shortcuts, like pressing the undo button enough times just completely deletes the frame. I’m not sure why they didn’t add an option to turn it off, but please give a disable option, it’s very annoying.
