## What is PixelArtCam?

PixelArtCam turns your photos into retro-game pixel art — fully offline, right on your device.

- One-tap convert: pick a photo from your library or take one, and watch it become 8-bit / 16-bit pixel art.
- Adjust the dots: a resolution slider from 16 to 160 px wide lets you dial in chunky retro blocks or fine pixel detail in real time.
- Retro palettes: full color, 32 / 16 / 8 / 4-color reduction, plus Game Boy, grayscale, sepia, 1-bit and a PICO-8-style 16-color palette.
- Dithering & grid: Floyd–Steinberg dithering keeps rich gradients with few colors; toggle a pixel grid to check every dot.
- Export in high resolution: the pixels are kept crisp (never blurred) and saved as a PNG you can share anywhere in one tap.
- Private by design: all conversion happens on-device. Your photos are never uploaded. No account, no login.

Perfect for retro-game fans, pixel-art avatar makers and anyone who loves the 8-bit / 16-bit look.
