Pros and cons of Pixelmator app for iPhone and iPad

Pixelmator app good for

First off, great app, there are a buttload of features for the average photoshop user. Live Photos Support is needed soon to keep this app at the top of its class. Nice work.
Powerful tool for photo edits on the iPad or just as well on the iPhone, layout works good and the new up date is a bonus! I do however miss the support for PDFs, it was even better then. Thanks.
This and facetune and you can almost live without photoshop...almost
Very usefull app for me, I use to edit my photographs. I strongly asking to able save photos from Pixelmator after edit in to Pixelmator file. Pixelmator automaticly create a file in photos albums. And automaticly saving to this file will be better, as like snapseed do.
My photos looks like professional. Just iPhone camera + pixelmatr and Lightroom mobile. The best algorithm of healing brush on mobile devices
Very powerful graphic editor on iPhone. If you edit photos on your phone professionally - buy this app immediately. No competitors for this app

Some bad moments

Didnt do it for me. Severely lacking in options. Naw, Im not going to get into the whys and where-for-alls. This just didnt do what I had hoped. Keeping in mind that I no longer remember why I d/led the app in the first place. Which says a lot to me...
I just paid five bucks but totally waste of money, I wish I could refund it, there are many much better apps are free, dont waste your money with it..
I have always used several apps to edit my pictures, and the best so far are the adobe photoshop apps since they are free and have all I need. But then I was looking for a good photo esiting app in the app store and I found Pixelmator. I bought it, and since the first time that I started using it, I knew it was the worst app I have ever bought. You cant almost do any editing, and its really hard to control the brushes, and all the effexts are really disorganized. DO NOT BUY THIS APP.
App keeps crashing after update. I have an iPad Mini retina with the latest OS update.
Very unimpressed with the lack of editing options on this. Mainly poor presets and not much to work with. Enlight and Photoshop for iPhone are better imho. Shame to waste $4.99 and realize it within minutes of using the app.
You should allow us to use the "restore" brush every time that we want to, sometimes I just want to undo some Applied effect in my job, and its not allowed because I had already leaved the distort mode. Its a good app but should allow us to do more with it.

Usually Pixelmator iOS app used & searched for

photolayers, pixelmator, photo editor layers, pixelmator team, and other. So, download free Pixelmator .ipa to run this nice iOS application on iPhone and iPad.
