Photomator requires macOS Ventura or later on Mac, and iOS and iPadOS 17 or later on iPhone and iPad.

Photomator is available to download from the App Store on Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Vision Pro. You can choose monthly or yearly subscription plans, or if you prefer to purchase Photomator and keep it, a one-time purchase license is also available. To check the Photomator pricing in your region, visit its official page on App Store.

Yes! Photomator offers a 1-week free trial with its yearly subscription. You can cancel anytime during the trial without being charged for the yearly license.

Note: If you sign up for a 1-week trial and you don't want to continue with the yearly subscription, make sure to cancel it at least 24 hours before the trial ends. If you do it later, you may be charged the full subscription fee.

Photomator and Pixelmator Pro are two powerful apps with two distinct purposes. In short, Photomator is dedicated for ultra-fast photo editing workflows, while Pixelmator Pro offers all the tools you need to create designs from scratch.

Photomator and Pixelmator Pro work great independently for specific editing workflows, but they have also been designed to work beautifully together. Both apps offer seamless edit syncing through iCloud which makes it super easy to round-trip between them – for example, you can edit a photo in Photomator, then send it to Pixelmator Pro to add some text, shapes, paint on it, and more.

If you bought Photomator after August 18, 2022, a single license unlocks Photomator on Mac, iPhone, and iPad. After you’ve downloaded Photomator on a new device, you’ll need to restore your previous purchase to start using the app. To do that, open Photomator and tap Restore at the top of the purchase window that appears. If you run into trouble restoring your purchase, visit this Apple Support article for troubleshooting tips or contact Photomator support.

For early Photomator supporters, we’re offering special discounts on the lifetime license for Photomator on Mac. Additionally, all Photomator users holding a lifetime license can continue using the app version they own on iPhone or iPad and receive free updates.

Photomator is designed from the ground up to bring a seamless way to browse and organize photos on your Mac, iPhone, and iPad. With its deep integration with Photos, Photomator automatically syncs any edits you make in the photo browser with your Photos library, while full support for the native Apple file system lets you edit photos anywhere on your device, external drives, or cloud services. On Mac, switch between Photos and Files browsers by simply clicking the pop-up menu in the toolbar or pressing the X key, or tap Settings (the gear icon) on iPhone or iPad.

Thanks to full integration with Apple Photos and iCloud Drive, edits sync seamlessly across all your devices and platforms whenever you’re using Photomator.

Yes! You can share your purchased copy of Photomator with your family members for free if you have a family sharing group set up on your App Store account. If you don’t have Family Sharing set up, visit Apple Support website to learn how.

Pixelmator Pro and Photomator are two independent apps, so users of Pixelmator Pro won't automatically receive access to Photomator for Mac. However, as the two apps were designed to work together and complement each other in design and photography workflows, for a limited time, we're offering Photomator for Mac with a 30% discount to all Pixelmator Pro users. To learn more about the offer, visit the official Photomator page on the App Store.

Photomator features support for over 750 different RAW formats. If your camera is relatively new and is not yet supported by Apple, support will most likely be added in future updates and Photomator will be able to take advantage of it automatically.

If you're new to Photomator, you can visit the Photomator User Guide to learn more about the tools and features available in the app. Also, be sure to check out the illustrated tutorials in the Tips section on iPhone and iPad, or choose Help > Tips for Photomator on Mac.

Yes! Pixelmator offers basic compatibility with Pixelmator Pro and can open and export documents that use PXD file format. For now, some layer types such as shapes, masks, color adjustments and effects layers will be flattened on iPhone and iPad. Support for more layer types is on the roadmap for future updates of Pixelmator for iOS.

To open an image from Photos, first tap Create Image in the location you want or tap the Add button at the top of the screen, then tap Photos at the bottom of the screen. Use the Photos browser to find the photo you'd like to edit.

First, try restarting your device. If there's an issue with the document browser, the restart will fix it. If you're still unable to create or open images, try changing the default save location of your Pixelmator files. You can do so in iOS or iPadOS Settings > Pixelmator > Document Storage. Some third-party storage providers do not support the iOS and iPadOS-native package type directories that Pixelmator uses for PXM files, so changing the document save location to local storage or iCloud can help.

Pixelmator is available for $9.99 on the App Store. The price may vary between different countries and is not regulated by the Pixelmator Team.
