## Description

Pixelable is a stress-free pixel art editor designed for intuitive drawing. It offers layer editing, color making, and a suite of basic tools for pixel art, plus undo/redo support. You can zoom with pinch gestures, export animations as GIFs, and save multiple projects for later editing.

Set canvas sizes from 5x5 to 256x256, adjust export pixel size, and reflect layers vertically or horizontally. The app supports color palettes (up to 150 colors) and easy saving. Note: To prevent crashes, a minimum of 150MB of free space is recommended when creating a new project.

## Review summary

Pixelable is beginner-friendly with a strong pixel-art toolset and handy tutorials, plus easy export to the camera roll. However, it suffers from intrusive ads, stability issues (save/export crashes and no auto-save), limited project organization, and missing export options like transparent backgrounds. Layer/tool bugs and a small canvas limit also appear in reviews. Overall, great for quick pixel art work, but stability and workflow improvements are needed for longer projects.

### Pros

- Easy to use with an intuitive UI.
- Rich pixel-art toolset, including brushes and basic animation support.
- Helpful tutorials that ease the learning curve.
- Allows saving to the camera roll and importing photos from your device.
- Enjoyable and feature-rich for creating pixel art and sprites.

### Cons

- Ads are intrusive and frequently interrupt the workflow.
- Saving/exporting can crash and cause loss of progress; auto-save is missing.
- Limited project management: cannot easily reorder or bundle projects.
- Export options are lacking, e.g., transparent background support and grid control; canvas size is capped (256x256) for some users.
- Bugs in layers and tools (flickering hidden layers, unreliable color dropper).
