Acorn 5

Acorn 1920x1080

Acorn 5 is out now and on sale for a limited time for $24.95.
Available through Flying Meat Store and Mac App Store.

I’ve been using Acorn and Pixelmator in lieu of Adobe Photoshop for cropping, touch-up and quick edit. One thing that I find pleasant about Acorn is that it has similar shortcut keys with Adobe Photoshop.

Acorn 5 requires OS X Yosemite (10.10) or later.

Acorn 5 would be the third time I purchased Acorn.

Pixelmator 3.3 What's New

Pixelmator Repair Tool works really well. I have been using it to touch up a lot of photos since the feature was first introduced in Pixelmator.

There are a few features that Pixelmator team can add in the future releases. Something like Adobe Photoshop’s Content Aware Fill.
