What Pixel Studio is

Pixel Studio is a pixel art editor for artists and game developers, from beginners to professionals. It runs on Android, iOS, macOS, and Windows, with brushes, symmetry drawing, gradients, text, dithering, and a color picker with RGBA and HSV modes. Projects can use layers and a frame-by-frame animation timeline, with onion skinning and sprite-sheet export available. Animations can be exported as GIFs, sprite sheets, or MP4 video. Supported file formats include PNG, JPG, GIF, BMP, TGA, Pixel Studio Project, PSD, and EXR; Aseprite files can be imported. The wider export-format list includes PSP, AI, EPS, HEIC, PDF, SVG, and WEBP. Google Drive sync and a dark theme require PRO, and WEBP cloud access is read only while PSD cloud access supports reading and writing. Users can get palettes from Lospec and share artwork through Pixel Network. The free plan is free and includes ads and in-app purchases. PRO costs $12.99, paid once. On Android, the listing recommends 6 GB RAM and specifies minimum hardware requirements.
