— Panos Panay (@panos_panay) August 18, 2021 As you can see in the video, the new Paint app in Windows 11 looks more modern and sophisticated than the current version. The app now has a new font picker, new brushes, and even a dark mode for improved viewing. The new tools include a quick picker that showcases all the different brushes and their effects. It also comes with a floating font tool along with new options for alignment, size, and more. Now, although the Paint app in Windows 11 does not appear to support more advanced features such as support for layers, it does look modern than ever. Moreover, it is the first major redesign for MS Paint after several years. RIP Paint 3D? As for the availability, the new Paint app will be available to test for Windows Insiders in the coming days. Although Panay did not mention a specific timeline for the release, he did add that it is “coming soon”. So, stay tuned for more updates.
