Dropbox and Google Drive integration;​

Interface designed to work on small and large devices​

Designed for 4.7" screens and up, the UI is minimalist and cohesive.

Designed with touch-screens in mind.​

Some interfaces work great when you have a keyboard to help you use shortcuts, but then, when working on a touchscreen, the good experience goes down the drain. That's why Pixly was made for touch-screens, You have easy access to important features with gestures that feel natural. For example, even though the "Color picker" tool is there, you can pretty much pick colors just by dragging from the color selector to the artboard.

Contextual tools for easy access​

Switching between two tools everytime? Eraser then brush, then eraser, then brush, then eraser... You think doing that without a keyboard will be hard? Think again!
