Version 2.5 overview:
This is a significant upgrade for iPad users! Make sure you've installed the latest iPadOS update to take advantage of full mouse, trackpad and keyboard support in ChibiStudio. Hover over items in the toolbar to see what they can do, use mouse and trackpad gestures to edit your chibi, you can also drag to select multiple chibis in the chibis tab. Hold down the Command key in the chibi editor to see the keyboard shortcuts that are available, try using the arrow keys to move the selected item on iPadOS 13.4 and above.
This release also includes the brand new HairMods pack, which lets you customize your chibi's hair even further by adding extensions, ponytails, fringes and more!
When adding an item to your chibi such as hairmods, that item will now use the same color of the hair. The same will happen for hands, which copy the skin color you've set for the body.
You can now long-press or right-click an item on your chibi to see a contextual menu that allows you to access some tools quickly and also reset that item to its original state, undoing all transforms and color customizations.
Meet the new Timeline tab: we made the third tab in the app much better by grouping stories by category and date. Keep in touch by getting the chibi of the week every Friday and learn with some of the tutorials we have at your disposal.
You may notice that our icon is slightly different than before. It's still the same icon, but we've improved its color to ensure that pink really pops out on devices with a P3 display.

- Brand new Dark Mode! If you enjoy working in the dark, select the dark appearance in settings.
- A new way to share: Chibi Links! You can now share your chibis as a link that can be opened in any web browser. If the link is opened on an iOS device with ChibiStudio installed, it imports the chibi directly to the recipient's library.
- The Camera Tool: you can now take pictures or choose content from your photo library to add to your chibis, either as a background or as a fully custom item.
- The Random Tool: not feeling creative? No problem! Use the random tool to randomize your chibi. The results can be quite interesting, try it out!
- The Transform Tool: you can now move, scale and rotate items in your chibi! Don't like the default placement of an item? Just select it and use the Transform Tool to customize it just the way you want.
- With the up and down tools you can move items on your chibi to be in front or behind other items.
- Like to listen to music while you create? A new, custom volume indicator prevents your work from being disrupted by the system's volume HUD while you're editing a chibi.
- The new "Learn" tab lets you see what's new with the app and also get tips and tricks to make the most out of it. It also shows featured packs you can purchase to make your chibis even more cool.
