I wanted to learn pixel art and prefer my digital art tools to be as simple as possible, so this app is perfect for me. I paid the small price to get rid of ads and it's so worth it. I'm using the app to draw the assets for a game I'm making for my spouse. I love that I can just do it right there on my phone, and it's so easy to import and export. If I had any suggestion it would be the ability to move only a section, not the whole drawing, so I don't have to redraw things. Great work 🩷

Great and very beginner-friendly; I would recommend it to those looking to get into pixel art, though for some reason, it crashes if you use the paint bucket a lot. Some cool features to add for more experienced users would be animation/frames, the ability to copy parts of one drawing onto another, pallets, and layers. More dynamic canvas sizing would also be appreciated.

It helps with sprites, but the downside is that you can't use the gallery your only allowed to access your recent images

Welp, sorry for this review but, it was disappointing. Yup, the simplicity is great, interface is nice too, not too advanced but at least it's easy to use. Problem is, I was working with a 192x192 art, and I was almost done JUST FEW PIXELS LEFT and then BOOM! The application crashed for some reason, I opened up the app immediately and there I saw, my art was gone, all effort turned to waste I was genuinely working on that art for at least an hour. You don't know how frustrated I feel right now.
