What Spritelove is

Spritelove is a native iOS pixel art editor and sprite animation studio for iPad and iPhone. Its 13 drawing tools include a pen, eraser, fill, line, shapes, move, rotate, mirror, select and rig. A timeline organizes layers and animation frames, with frame management and onion-skin overlays; bones can be attached to layers for skeletal animation. The app includes three color palettes and a grays palette, plus an eyedropper and recent color history. It exports PNG frames, animated GIFs, spritesheets with JSON metadata, Aseprite files and native .spl projects. Spritelove also imports and exports Aseprite files with layer, frame and palette data. The maker says spritesheet exports with JSON metadata can be used with popular game engines. The app works offline with hardware-accelerated rendering, and projects and settings are stored locally. The maker says it does not collect, transmit or store personal data or artwork on external servers. The free tier has limits on layers, frames, canvas size, exports and projects; Full Studio costs $9.99, paid once as a one-time purchase.
