Welcome to the PixelLab Masterclass
Design from your pocket
PixelLab is one of the most powerful free design apps on Android. You can create posters, flyers, logos, quotes, thumbnails and social media graphics - all from your phone, with no computer and no expensive software. This course takes you from a blank screen to confident, professional-looking designs.
What you will build in this course
- Your first design project in the first lesson
- Text effects, backgrounds and layers used by real designers
- Posters, flyers and social media graphics from start to finish
- A logo and a simple brand kit you can actually use
- Exports at the right size for print and for Instagram, Facebook and WhatsApp
How to follow along
Every lesson ends with a practical exercise and a check your understanding section. Do the exercise before moving on - design is a skill you learn by doing, not by watching. Download the PDF handouts with each lesson so you can follow along on paper as you work on your phone.
Tip: Keep your phone screen unlocked and your brightness up during the practical lessons. It makes matching the tools much easier.
Warning: PixelLab is Android-only. If you have an iPhone, the closest equivalent is Canva - see our course "Canva Graphic Design on Smartphone" instead.
Practical exercise
Before the next lesson:
- Download PixelLab from the Google Play Store
- Open it and tap through the templates gallery just to explore
