11 November 2022
Ever since version 2, back in January 2021, Brush Ninja has had selectable colours, but picking good colour combinations is hard. A feature I really like in apps like ProCreate is custom colour palettes, so I thought I would add them to Brush Ninja. The colours in the palettes are...

A couple of months ago I quietly launched a Comic Maker, and now I’ve added 2 more apps to the list. We have the Photo Collage Maker, and the Emoji Art Designer. Photo Collage I wanted to make something for my wife to use when she sells things online, plus...
New free app: Comic Maker
