Graphics & Design

Pixelmator Pro

Pixelmator Pro combines layered image editing, RAW adjustments, vector design, retouching and painting in a Mac graphics workspace.

Our take

Pick for mixed photo and design tasks in a single Mac editor.

Layers, templates, repair tools and vector shapes support both original layouts and photo refinement.

Keep in mind: Feature availability differs between the captured 3.8 listing and Apple's newer Creator Studio version. Do not assume newer Warp, iPad or intelligence features are included in this older standalone entitlement.
