User Reviews

Pixelmator Classic iOS is valued for its upfront price, solid mobile editing power, and easy-to-learn tools, with a long‑standing user base. However, recurring issues center on stability (crashes and data loss), missing advanced features (perspective editing, Bézier curves, fonts, 16-bit color), UI/UX regressions after updates, concerns about ongoing updates, and project management problems. These reliability and feature-gap concerns frequently appear across reviews, tempering its otherwise strong appeal for mobile editing.

Pros

Upfront price with no ongoing subscription.
Powerful mobile editor for photos/graphics on iPhone.
Easy to learn and lightweight with straightforward retouch tools.
Longstanding app with a dedicated Pixelmator team and loyal user base.

Cons

Stability issues: frequent crashes, freezes, and unsaved work leading to data loss.
Missing essential advanced features and capabilities (perspective editing, Bézier curves, 16-bit color, font import, PSD text editing, skew).
UI/UX regressions and bugs after updates (text alignment resetting, blank style windows, projects view changes, clone tool glitches).
Perceived lack of updates and compatibility issues with newer iOS/iPadOS versions.
Project management/file organization problems (difficulty locating or retrieving projects).

I have Pixelmator on multi iOS devices and my Mac computers. I do like the app in general however the latest version in iOS 17.6.1 has a number of issues. The text alignment option will switch to left after beginning in center. The files are sent to the bottom of the page while they used to be at the top. Sometimes the text style selection window will go blank and one must close and reopen to continue text style selection. Sometimes when opening an new image the app will say “can’t open now” or something like that. Again, open and close may fix that. I hope this will help your techs in fixing these issues.

Love this app, its exactly what you need to do true photo and graphic editing on an iPhone. The Photos and Photomator apps lack true editing features, and Pixelmator Pro is only on iPad. Don't know what I'll use when this stops working on new iOS versions.
