Pixlr on Chrome

Hello everyone, you can download Pixlr for Chromebook and experience one of the best photoshop alternatives every released. I say that with confidence and by the end of this post, a lot of you will agree with me.

Today we will highlight some reasons why we think you should definitely try Pixlr for your Chrome OS device. I honestly believe, if you want something quick that can edit your images, add some text to your graphics and have the same feel and somewhat look as the traditional Photoshop that most of you are used to(version 6+), if so, Pixlr is the photo editor to use. I have been using it for many years now as my backup to Photoshop, over 7 years now and I am glad my sister introduced me to it on a random day, I think it was actually the first time I bought a Chromebook and I was looking to edit photos, she simply gave me this link and I was shocked at how powerful it was especially being that it ran on a browser but I could and I can still do 85% of what I Photoshop can do without missing a beat! You can even import fonts etc. I mean just give it a try yourself and you will see what I mean, again the web version is just as good as the Android app, plus it’s free to use so let us know what you think in the comments if you decide to try it.

  • Does Pixlr work on Chromebooks? Yes, Pixlr works on Chromebooks by either using the Android app or online web version which is just as good.
