About

Bead Duck

Features
Read full description

Bead Duck is a mobile workspace for fuse bead creators who want to plan before they build. Instead of acting like a simple pattern generator, it focuses on draft preparation, palette planning, board arrangement, and cleaner project organization. Import a photo, turn it into a bead draft, adjust local color areas, fine-tune the grid, and review bead counts before you start. You can prepare circular or square board layouts, organize palette ideas, save multiple draft versions, and export preview-ready layouts that are easier to review before real assembly. This makes the app better suited for creators who want a planning workflow, not just a template result. If your process includes testing colors, comparing layouts, checking quantities, and refining drafts before placing beads, Bead Duck is positioned as a creation studio rather than another generic bead pattern app. Some advanced features require Pro. Pro is available as an auto-renewing subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase. You can manage or cancel subscriptions in your App Store account settings and restore purchases at any time. Terms of Use and Privacy Policy are available in the app and on the App Store product page.
