2.3
2021-10-04
iOS 15 compatibility.
New node preview option on the redesigned node shortcut options menu. The preview option opens a large window to see that node’s output in greater detail.
2.2
2021-06-04
This update adds an option to all modules to disable preserving the colour of speculative highlights. Turning this off allows highlights to become white resulting in a potentially more shiny or wet looking surface.
For those of you who use ImageSynth to create monochrome textures for Procreate brushes or Nomad stamps, or any other app that uses mono textures, we’ve made working with zero vibrancy more simple. All your Gallery images will appear monochrome and any exported projects will have their colour nodes removed as you would expect when working without colour.

Welcome to ImageSynth 2.0
This major update includes the last big change to ImageSynth’s UI, including a complete rewrite of the Designer module. There are so many changes that it’s not possible to list them all, but here are the headlines;
— Designer can now flow left to right or top to bottom depending on your device and orientation.
— Node UI has been streamlined and simplified
— Temporary pop up windows are not used for properties anymore, so you don’t lose your changes because you tapped the screen
It’s not just Designer that’s had major changes, all modules now feature a top navigation and tool bar.
Coming Soon
- Canvas zoom in Designer
- Node preview in Designer
- Super shiny lighting

2019-04-04
Showing some love for the Designer Module in this update.
* The old dull preview window has been replaced with Live Views. Up to 5 nodes can open a resizable, moveable, preview window that gives instant feedback on any changes made to nodes linked to them. Live Views will revolutionise the way you work with the Designer.
* Individual connections can now be broken by taping on a node's connector.
* The Shapes Generator has a few more options.
* Fixed a rendering glitch caused by the Distort Modifier.
Coming Next - More big changes to the Designer module.

It’s been a little while since the last update. That’s because we’ve been working on the biggest update ever for ImageSynth.

* New iPad Pro is now fully supported.
* Performance has been radically improved. Many designs now render in less than half of the time.
