Paint X is a classic painting application to draw, color, or edit pictures. You can use Paint X like a digital sketchpad to make simple pictures, creative projects, or to add text and designs to other pictures, such as those taken with your digital camera.

This tried-and-true program is easier to use—and fun, too. The realistic digital "brushes" will bring your pictures to life in shades of watercolor, crayon, and calligraphy. And the ribbon—the strip across the top of the window that shows what a program can do—displays choices out in the open rather than in menus.

Not Bad.

It’s alright, I guess. It’s a fairly primitive image editing tool, because of that, I recommend using it for minor editing, simple pictures, etc. The closest thing I can compare this to would be MSPaint. Certain things are slightly better while other things are slightly worse when compared to MSPaint. The drawing tools don’t have as much customization, although it does have antialiasing. One of the main problems with MSPaint is that most drawing tools lacked antialiasing. I’m currently working on sprite artwork, though, so I’d really like an option to disable it. Oh, and I’ve been having an annoying problem. When you use the pencil tool, it colors it unevenly. The colors are slightly off and since I’m working on sprite artwork, this is a pretty bad problem. The only way around this problem is to color only one pixel at a time which is pretty tedious. Since this is the lite version, it leaves a watermark that says “Created by Paint X” at the bottom of every picture you edit.

Love this app!!!

This is a great app for anyone who is looking for a free photoshop app. I wanted to take one photo, delete the background of the photo and then paste it onto another one and it turned out great!!! It took me a couple tries to figure out how to do exactly what I wanted to, but eventually I got the hang of it. The features and tools are very easy to comprehend you just need to figure out what order to use them in to get the product you are looking for. Could use a selection tool in the form of a circle instead I had to free hand select it but otherwise a great tool. I highly recommend this app to anyone who is even remotely considering it.

Why does the AppStore keep selling faulty apps like this???

Paint X doesn't do much, and what it does do is buggy & slow. There are no settings for the brushes and apparently there's no tablet support either. Not only that, the brush sets are "borrowed" (stolen would be more precise) directly from an open-source Python paint program called MyPaint. Even the brush icons are all exactly the same. But in Paint X, they hardly work.

Paint X is made by the same developer who uses various names & also makes several other faulty apps including Colar and Pavo. Neither of those apps work very well, either. They are all very buggy & don't do much at all.

Yet the AppStore continues to sell them! It damages the AppStore's credibility.
