PICSART CEO:
BUILDING
THE LARGEST
NETWORK
OF CREATIVES
This month we celebrate PicsArt’s third
birthday and thanks to you, our loyal
community, we have a lot of great
memories to look back on as we continue to
build the largest network for creatives. New
tools in our toolkit and a larger collection
of amazing images have made us one of
the most downloaded photo editing and
drawing apps in the world, with over 175
million installs across all platforms.
The key to our success is our
community-driven approach. The changes
and improvements we make are often
the result of your feedback. For example,
you asked us to revisit our contest rules,
pointing out issues that affected fairness.
Revamping the contests led to a 10-20%
increase in participation and a fairer playing
ground for all.
To highlight what our community likes
most, we have added a Popular feed and
have made improvements to our Featured
feed. Moving forward, these will be just two
of many dynamic feeds, which we believe
will make PicsArt better than ever as a place
for discovery and collaboration, resulting in
millions of viral images.
To inspire fair collaboration and to
restrict image editing and sharing without
permission, we recently expanded the
#freetoedit tag to iOS, giving everyone a
seat at the creative table. This launch is a
big effort in promoting collaboration and
protecting your images by limiting illegal
borrowing. Consider the cooperative spirit
