What's in it
The tools you use every day
Layers and blend modes
Opacity, eleven blend modes, drag to reorder, merge down, flatten.
20 tools with one-key shortcuts
Selections, magic wand, brushes, gradient, clone stamp, recolor, text, lines and shapes.
Adjustments and effects
Levels, hue and saturation, blurs, noise, emboss, clouds. You see the result while you move the slider.
Plugins built in
Align, outline, drop shadow, color to alpha and 14 more, already there.
Object Eraser
Paint over a stain or a stray object and it disappears. The gap is filled from what's around it, right on your device.
Open formats
Save as .graint with all layers, or as PNG, JPEG and WebP. .pdn files open too, and autosave brings your work back after a crash.
AI tools when you want them
Fill a selection from a description, extend a photo past its edges, or change it with a sentence. These run in the cloud, only when you start them. Prices
Ad space. One ad per page, from developer and design tools.
Coming from Windows?
You'll find your way around quickly
- Tools on the left, history and layers on the right, colors bottom left
- The usual shortcuts: B brush, S select, M move, Ctrl+D deselect
- .pdn files open with their layers, names, opacity and blend modes
- Floating windows turn see-through when you paint underneath
Text stays editable
Each text gets its own layer. If you prefer the old way, there's a switch in the toolbar.
Smart magic wand
Follows the edges of an object instead of stopping at the first color change.
Rotate handle
A round handle above the frame rotates selections and pixels.
Object Eraser
Click a coffee stain and it's gone. Works offline.
