Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pixelizr at 3.3 against dot ART's 2.0. Pixelizr also leads on ratings volume (31 vs 6) and iOS requirement (9.0 vs 18.0). dot ART's advantage is update cadence (every 3 months vs every 27 months). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. dot ART sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Pixelizr sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Pixelizr holds the better App Store score, 3.3 against 2.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pixelizr has 31 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 33% of dot ART's written reviews are positive against 29% of Pixelizr's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
dot ART ships an update every 3 months, Pixelizr every 27 months. Both last shipped on October 11, 2026.
