MADE FOR REAL-WORLD BEADING • Create a pattern from any photo • Isolate the main subject for a cleaner result • Choose from built-in bead palettes (including Perler® and Hama®) or create your own • View a zoomable grid with coordinates and color codes • See exact bead counts for every color • Erase, restore, or recolor individual cells • Undo and redo edits without losing your work • Save projects and export a high-resolution pattern image PRIVATE BY DESIGN Your photos and patterns are processed on your device.
