Following the latest in what's proved to be a regular stream of significant updates, Pixelmator Pro 2.0.8 is now on sale for half price.

The developer has also announced that its promised ML-based cropping tool will be launched in Pixelmator Pro 2.1. "Ot analyzes the composition of photos using a machine learning algorithm and gives you a suggestion for how you could crop the photo to make it more eye-catching," says the company in a blog post.

"Above all, we want this feature to just be fun," continues the developer, "giving you some different perspectives for a common photo editing task."

Pixelmator Pro already includes Machine Learning features such as Super Resolution, which enlarges images while retaining crispness.

The Mac image editor is a native Apple Silicon app that usually costs $39.99. For an unspecified limited time, it's available for $19.99, and users who buy this version will get the forthcoming Pixelmator Pro 2.1 update for free.

It's available from the Mac App Store.

    Absolutely love this app. Hopeful they can bring more of the features over to Pixelmator Photo on the iPad, or better yet port the entire app over.
