Pixelmator Apps Get First Update Under Apple Ownership, Focus on Bug Fixes and Improvements

Overview of Pixelmator's Latest Updates

Pixelmator, a suite of photo editing apps, has received its first updates under Apple's ownership two weeks after the acquisition was officially confirmed. The updates are available for three Pixelmator applications: Pixelmator, Pixelmator Pro, and Photomator. Despite speculation about potential changes to the business model, such as making the apps free, no significant changes have been made yet.

Key Points:

• Acquisition Confirmation: On February 11, Apple officially announced its ownership of Pixelmator through an in-app announcement.
• First Updates Post-Acquisition: The recent updates bring bug fixes and improvements but do not alter the existing payment models for the apps.
• Changes in Release Notes: Historically, Pixelmator's release notes provided detailed information about new features and bug fixes. However, the current update notes are more generic, stating only 'This update contains bug fixes and improvements.'

Future Expectations:

Users are speculating about potential future changes Apple might bring to the apps, including possible free access or new features. For now, Pixelmator users should expect regular bug fixes and improvements.
