PadPad vs BeadCube

Turn your iPad and Apple Pencil into a pen tablet for your Mac or Windows PC. PadPad shows your computer's screen on your iPad and sends every Pencil stroke back as real pen input — pressure, tilt and a true eraser — so desktop apps like Krita, Photoshop and Clip Studio Paint respond just as they do to a pen tablet. Handwrite notes, mark up slides, or sign a PDF that never leaves your computer. DRAW • Apple Pencil pressure, tilt and eraser in tablet-aware desktop apps • Hover and barrel roll on supported iPads and Pencils • Shape your pressure curve and smoothing • Stream a whole display, one app, one window or an area — fitted to your iPad • Pinch to zoom in for detail work MAC AND WINDOWS • The PadMac (macOS 15+) and PadWin (Windows 11, beta) apps run on your computer • PadPad shows the right keys for each: ⌘ ⌥ ⇧ ⌃ on a Mac, Ctrl, Alt, Shift and Win on a PC • Quick Keys and gestures for each desktop app WRITE AND SIGN Handwrite equations and class notes, annotate a document or add a signature without moving the file to your iPad. On iPhone, draw with your finger for quick signatures. CONNECTS DIRECTLY PadPad connects straight to your computer over Wi-Fi or a USB-C cable. No account, and your work is not uploaded to a PadPad cloud service. WHAT YOU NEED • An iPad or iPhone on iOS 18 or later • A Mac with PadMac, or a Windows PC with PadWin — from codonic.dev/apps/pad Capabilities depend on your iPad, Pencil and desktop app.

See the finished piece in 3D before placing your first bead. BeadCube is a complete workspace for fuse-bead creators. Turn photos into clear patterns, start from a blank canvas, inspect the finished look in 3D, and find structural weak points before you assemble or iron your work. 3D PREVIEW View your flat pattern as dimensional beads. Drag to inspect it from different angles or jump to preset views, so colors, silhouettes, and assembly relationships are easier to judge before you begin. PHOTO TO PATTERN Choose a photo, crop the subject, and generate a bead pattern automatically. BeadCube suggests a suitable grid and color count, with controls for background removal, color limits, artwork type, and dithering. CREATE AND EDIT Start with a blank canvas or refine a generated pattern cell by cell. Paint, erase, fill, pick colors, select, flip, rotate, undo, and redo. Keep the source image underneath as a reference while correcting details. DESIGNED FOR IPAD Make full use of the larger display with side-by-side previews and controls, an editor that keeps the canvas and inspector visible together, and pattern-plus-3D assembly views. Apple Pencil support enables precise input, while separate finger drawing and panning controls keep longer creative sessions comfortable and efficient. STRUCTURE CHECK Detect isolated beads, detached regions, diagonal-only connections, and critical weak points. Locate each issue, reinforce it, ignore an intentional detail, and run the check again after editing. IMPORT FROM LINKS Paste an external link that contains an image. BeadCube first tries to recognize an existing grid pattern; other images continue through the photo conversion flow. Only import content you have the right to use. ASSEMBLY AND MATERIALS Review bead counts by color, focus on one color while assembling, and export clear patterns, color references, and material lists for printing or sharing.
