Pixelmator Pro 3.7 Adds Apple Intelligence, Image Playground, and Writing Tools in Major Update

Apple has just released Pixelmator Pro 3.7, and it's a major leap forward—especially for users on the latest Macs. The update adds Apple Intelligence integration, giving users access to powerful generative AI tools like Image Playground and Writing Tools, right inside the app.

Designed exclusively for macOS, Pixelmator Pro has long been praised for its intuitive interface and pro-level capabilities. Now, with Apple Intelligence, it’s becoming even smarter and more creative.

Image Playground: Instant AI-Generated Art

Image Playground is a game-changer for creators. It allows you to:

  • Generate original images from a photo, written prompt, or even people in your Photos library

  • Apply artistic styles like animation, illustration, or sketch

  • Use the new Add to Playground feature to transform layers or drawings into stylized art

  • Insert creations into your canvas as new layers or replace existing ones

  • Seamlessly swap placeholder images in templates and mockups with AI-generated artwork

Whether you're working on a brand kit, social post, or conceptual art, this feature makes ideation faster and more fun.

Writing Tools: Smarter Text Editing with AI

Pixelmator Pro now helps with your words as much as your visuals. The Writing Tools feature brings ChatGPT-like language support directly into your workspace. You can:

  • Proofread, summarize, rewrite, or change the tone of selected text

  • Use the new Compose feature to generate content from scratch based on a short prompt

  • Simply Control-click or hover over text and select “Writing Tools” to begin

Great for headlines, captions, or full product descriptions, especially when you’re working under a tight deadline.

RAW Improvements and Accessibility Updates

  • Improved RAW support for OM SYSTEM OM-1 Mark II cameras, including High Res Shot images

  • VoiceOver enhancements now provide spoken and braille descriptions of tools

  • Keyboard navigation through tool options is now easier for visually impaired users

  • Hover Text shows tool names in large type when hovering in the sidebar

These changes make Pixelmator Pro even more inclusive for all creators.

How to Get It

Pixelmator Pro is available on the Mac App Store for $49.99 (one-time purchase, no subscription).
This latest update is free for existing users.

Bottom line:
With Pixelmator Pro 3.7, Apple Intelligence brings a huge creative boost, making the app feel like your own personal design assistant. From AI-generated art to context-aware writing tools, it’s never been easier—or smarter—to bring your visual projects to life on Mac.
