Best pixel art app out there

I’ve tried multiple apps for pixel art, and i have to say once you figure out (either with the tutorial or by yourself) the layout/interface, it becomes soo fun. I have been using this app on and off, but i always come back when I want to do pixel art

Amazing

NO ads, MANY features, CHILL vibes. And best of all? You don’t even need a premium subscription to do the above. If you have 2 projects you can just delete 1 of them.
