Pointillist

As you may know, pointillism is a form of painting developed in the late 19th century branching from Impressionism, in which small dots are applied in patterns to form a picture. And a pointillist, who paints with pointillism, usually needs to spend months to paint the hundreds of thousands of tiny dots. But now with the Pointillist, you can "paint" your photo into a work of pointillism art just in seconds.

Does what it says it does

Needs full color

The images this app produces are all monochrome. It would be much better if they were produced in full color.

Pretty good

It does what it says. It's easy to use. Finished pieces look like the samples above. Saves in high resolution. =M=

Dope app!

I download almost every photography app that comes out with decent reviews and about 10 have made the cut to stay on phone. This is def one of them. Love the artistic look it gives and more importantly the simplicity off the app. @danielwarephoto is me on Instagram or @daniel_ware on Twitter to check some out!!

It works...

Does what it says, but there seem to be very few pictures that still look good after applying this effect... for the most part the images look like a poorly applied photoshop filter. It's pretty simple, but maybe I'm just not using it right... either way, for the average user I don't think you'll see a lot of awe-inspiring results from this app. Part of what's so cool about pointilism art is stepping back and admiring the image, and only noticing that it's made up of lots of tiny dots when you look closely... this app makes it very clear that you're making an image out of dots... maybe the dots are too big, but whatever the reason, it doesn't have the same impressive effect as the handmade artwork.

Good App!

Great little photo app

If you want to tweak your profile pic this is an awesome tool. Better than the cartoonize apps I have tried

Nice and weird
?

Once you start playing around with the settings you can get some really nice pseudo-psychedelic pix that look almost nothing like the examples above -- they look more like those freaky, strangely colored, Eye posters for 2001: A Space Odyssey. If you like making weird pictures, give this a try and you'll find a use for it.
