When you download PixelLab from the Play Store or any website, you usually get the most recent update. However, many content creators, especially those making social media graphics, run into a couple of common issues with the latest version:

When trying to create a custom thumbnail, users often find that their stored PLP files don’t appear inside the PixelLab Mod app, making it impossible to import them.

After creating a design, although the thumbnail saves successfully, the corresponding PLP project file doesn’t show up in the device’s file manager.

These problems are frustrating for YouTubers and graphic designers. One simple fix is to install an older version of PixelLab, where these issues are much less common.

That’s why many users still prefer earlier versions — they offer reliable functionality, fewer glitches, and a straightforward editing experience. PixelLab remains a powerful and flexible tool, featuring a wide range of templates, design elements, and a rich collection of fonts in multiple languages.
