As a learner of pixel art, I love using Procreate on my iPad with Apple Pencil. But cleanly exporting crisp pixel art was a frustrating struggle - the only solution I found was tedious canvas and layer resizing in Procreate.

So I built Pixel Companion, now on the App Store. It enables lossless upscaling, optimized specifically for pixel art to prevent blurring and artifacts. The app also helps explore diverse color palettes online effortlessly.

I made Pixel Companion to solve my own scaling issues as a pixel art learner. I hope it can assist other artists like you to to better create pixel arts.

I’m open for feedback to improve the app’s usefulness. Please let me know how Pixel Companion could better meet your needs!
