Mischief is another cool Paint alternative that you can use on your Mac. Staying true to the macOS philosophy, Paintbrush supports tabs, so you can create multiple drawings, without having to launch separate instances of the app. The only bad thing about this app, is that the toolbar is a separate floating window, and there is no option to use the app in a “single window mode”. It offers all the basic tools you’d expect from a Microsoft Paint alternative, and can save files into most widely used formats, including JPEG, PNG, BMP, and more. When you launch the app, you can choose the dimensions of the image you want to create there are presets for various sizes, or you can go with a custom size.
By its very design (and similarity to Microsoft Paint), the app is not really suitable for creating high quality art on your computer, however, for most simple image creation tasks, the app will work perfectly fine. Just like Microsoft Paint, the interface is incredibly simple, and easy to use. The free app is exactly the same as its Windows’ counterpart, and has all the tools you’d find in the Paint app, right down to the spray can. If you’re looking for an app that works exactly the way Paint does on Windows, look no further than Paintbrush.
