Beadly

Beadly is a modern bead pattern design tool for creating peyote, brick, and loom designs with precision and ease. Built natively for iPhone, iPad, and Mac, it delivers a fast, consistent experience across all your Apple devices.

Turn photos, artwork, sketches, and inspiration images into detailed bead patterns in seconds. Convert any image into loom, peyote, or brick bead maps and control the pattern size, colour count, and level of detail to match your project.

Use the new Reference Image feature to place any image behind your bead map, adjust its position and transparency, and draw directly on top. Perfect for tracing designs, recreating existing patterns, and transforming artwork into bead creations with greater accuracy.

Design detailed bead maps, build colour palettes, edit selections with precision tools, and refine patterns using an interface that feels natural, responsive, and unmistakably Apple.
