When I don't need AI, this is the first app I open for image editing, every time. Super easy to use for layering and fine-tuning images, text, and simple vector objects. Perfectly smooth operation (no lag at all!), and beautifully high-res output. There's a gap or two in its toolbox, but I'll hop onto another app for a minute to get that missing effect, then come right back to PixelLab to perfect the final result. Also, I recently reported a bug, and it was fixed the same day! Truly exceptional.

I love this app! Posting this here because there's a bug. The app today has suddenly changed the screen size so that the bottom icons are totally unusable, since they're covered up by the navigation icons. I work in tech; I've tried the usual force quit & reboot stuff, to no avail. No clue why it is doing this, but for right now it's currently unusable.

Can't add custom fonts anymore. This was the best app I could find that was free and would let me add words to designs. But now the feature for adding downloaded fonts doesn't work anymore. No matter what, it simply won't add the file. I'm now on the hunt for a similar app until Support finds a way to fix it. Still 3 starts because the rest still works amd what I've downloaded before is still there.
