Photo editing app Pixelmator Photo has received a major update to version 1. 1, gaining support for Apple's newly released iPadOS 13, including its redesigned Files app. As well, the updated app brings 'deeper integration' with Apple's iCloud Photos service, batch photo editing that is 'enhanced' via machine learning, and the ability to resize exported images.
Pixelmator Photo is a version of the Pixelmator desktop software designed specifically for the iPad. Apple released iPadOS 13 earlier this month for its tablets, bringing a version of iOS tailored specifically for the iPad, including an improved Files app.
The Pixelmator Photo 1. 1 update adds support for both iPadOS 13 and that new Files app, enabling users to edit images stored on external devices, including USB drives and SD cards, as well as remote online services including file servers.
Joining that new capability is ML-enhanced batch photo editing, offering users access to machine learning algorithms trained on what the company says were millions of professional images. Pixelmator includes its own batch editing workflows with Pixelmator Photo 1. 1, though users can also create their own with actions like cropping and straightening, as well as custom color adjustment presets.
Going forward, Pixelmator Photo will now automatically manage photo edits and save the changes to the user's library thanks to the updated iCloud Photos integration. Users no longer have to create duplicates or manually import images, plus it is now possible to revert images, favorite them, and delete them in the Photos library without exiting Pixelmator Photo.
Pixelmator Photo is available to purchase for iPad from the Apple App Store for $4. 99 USD.
