Peyote Studio

Peyote Studio turns your bead design into a complete, ready-to-stitch pattern. Draw on a bead-accurate grid โ or start from a photo โ and the app automatically generates everything you need: โข Corrected chart that reads in the exact order you stitch โข Compressed stitch order โ follow along and check off each section as you go โข Materials list โ beads per row, per repeat, totals, and a per-color count โข Front view and a print / PDF sheet you can save or print Built for peyote stitch: flat (even/odd count) and tubular (rope) work, with automatic increase/decrease detection and gentle warnings when a shape needs a closer look. What makes it different: it doesn't just show a chart โ it works out the actual stitching order for you, which most bead-charting tools don't. โข Works fully offline. Your designs stay on your device. โข No account, no ads, no tracking. Free. โข English and Japanese. Note: "Peyote stitch" is a beadwork technique. Please use only images you have the right to, and respect the cultural context of the craft (shown in the app).

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Peyote Studio at none against BeadPatternCreator's 1. BeadPatternCreator's advantage is iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
