Great low barrier of entry material authorship software that is fun to use and saves time.
Powerful and easy to learn tool for creating seamless textures from images, including AI-generated textures and high-resolution photography.
Excellent starting point with a commitment to offering permanent licenses, making it a valuable addition for 3D modeling workflows.

Some features, like sending to Painter/Designer, are not working on the Steam version, leading to frustration with file compatibility.
Extremely poor optimization for macOS, causing viewport glitches that make the application difficult to use.
Certain filters are no longer usable in newer versions, resulting in old files being stuck in a loading state and requiring recreation.
