Excellent pixel art program. The price to uograde is extremely reasonable and comes with some great quality of life upgrades, allowing me to link between my different devices. Very easy to learn and start using right away. I only have 1 request; the ability to link layers so they use the transparency of the layer below. Like an alpha lock or transparency mask. But I can manage without it, which is why I have the program 5 starts and highly recommend it.

Great app, tutorials are nice, easy to use interface, ads are not intrusive, and its overall a really good app for mobile pixel art. I'm giving this five stars, although I have a complaint. When zooming in/out with 2 fingers, if you release 1 finger before the other, it causes your view of the canvas to randomly go in that direction, and you have to go back to where you were trying to draw. It gets pretty annoying when drawing up close. Other than that, I have no problems with this app.

Ive been using this app for a while to make pixel art. I like the app alot but since one of the new updates there has been a BUG when I try to import a photo where it restarts the app and I can't import the photo. I made sure the photo was small enough and not over the size limit. In the past I imported photos with no issues but when I tried recently it doesn't work. The bug makes it difficult for me to get the exact colors I need.
