Pixel Art Maker 4+

I make crochet tapestry’s and I’ve been looking for an app that I can make images into grids and then edit them to make them compatible with my medium. This app does all that. I can customize the size of the grid, i can put in the image, and I can manually edit it to tweak everything perfectly all with no payment or subscription, which their competitors were not able to. Amazing app and I will use it many times. The only thing that I can’t figure out(I’m not very tech savvy tho so this could just be me) is how to have multiple grids saved in the app at once as I’m usually working on multiple projects at once. Overall amazing!

I’ve always wanted to make sprites, even animated ones, and this app hits pretty much every nail on the head in this regard. You can also save the sprites as images, including animated gifs to your phone/tablet, which makes it even better.

If I have one gripe, it’s that the “Copy Color” option to transfer a specific color to all other animation frames doesn’t work, forcing me to have to manually change the color of each unique sprite in said animation. Not the worst thing in the world, but makes things a tad more tedious; an update to fix this would take this app from being excellent to perfect.

I love how simple it is. I don’t need my color palette saved, I don’t need any pictures saved. The colors are easy to toggle. You can export directly to apps like godaddy studio (formerly Over) keeping the transparent background.

If I had one note that is it. Exporting by saving the pic should keep the transparent instead of making that are white. But like I said there’s ways around it and I love that. Larger canvases (smaller pixels) would be nice but considering the app is asking for so little and the ads are so minimal there’s nothing not to like.
