Smudge an image in Pixelmator Pro on iPad

In Pixelmator Pro on iPad, select a layer in the Layers sidebar.
Swipe down from the top of the screen to reveal the menu bar, then choose Tools > Retouch > Smudge.
In the toolbar at the bottom, adjust the settings:
Brush Size: Drag the slider to change brush size.
Softness: Tap
, then drag the slider to soften brush edges for blending.
Strength: Tap
, then drag the slider to adjust the intensity of the effect.
Drag in the canvas over the areas you want to smudge.
