Pixelmator has released version 3.7 Mount Whitney of its comprehensive image editing app for Mac. The update brings support for macOS High Sierra and the new HEIF (High Efficiency Image File Format) image format that was introduced with the iPhone 8 series and iPhone X.
In addition, Pixelmator can now directly be launched from the Photos app and any edits you make within the more powerful editor will be saved to the original image in the Photos library as well. The option to edit with Pixelmator will appear in the Photos Image menu as soon as the app has been installed or updated to the latest version.
“People love using Pixelmator on the Mac, and one of the biggest reasons is its extensive integration with macOS,” said Saulius Dailide, one of the founders of the Pixelmator Team. “And with Pixelmator 3.7 Mount Whitney, we think users are really going to love the much more seamless experience of launching Pixelmator right from the Photos app and automatically saving changes back to the same image in the Photos library.”
The update also includes improvements to the Repair Tool to make it faster and more accurate, as well as improved support for PSD images. The updated Pixelmator can be downloaded from the App Store for $ 30.
