Paint X Premium
Paint X Premium is a lightweight digital painting and image editing application for macOS. It provides a collection of drawing tools including pencils, erasers, airbrushes, fill buckets, text tools, and color pickers, along with over 40 built-in shapes. Users can rotate, resize, flip, and crop images, adjust canvas size, and work with multiple image windows simultaneously. The app supports drag-and-drop operations, zoom controls, printing, and multiple file formats. It is intended for casual users and hobbyists who want a straightforward painting or sketching experience with realistic digital brushes simulating watercolor, crayon, and calligraphy effects.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionWe could not find definitive information about whether Paint X Premium has been updated to run natively on Apple Silicon. The search results describe the application's features but do not mention a native build or any recent releases. Contact the developer directly at the Paint X support channel to ask whether a native Apple Silicon version is available or is planned before macOS 28 releases in September 2028, since the Intel-only build will stop launching on that date. If the developer confirms no native build exists, you may want to explore native macOS painting alternatives such as Procreate (iPad/Mac), Affinity Photo (powerful vector and raster editing, native Apple Silicon), or Sketch (vector design, native Apple Silicon) depending on your specific use case.
