  • Used to be great

    I used to use this app all the time and really loved how the colors were sequenced, how they got put onto the canvas once clicked, the pictures, (also, wasn’t there an undo button?!), etc. I came back after a while of not being on and it has completely changed. It seems to me like either someone new took over the app or they just don’t care anymore. It’s disappointing. Almost every canvas I color now has spots that are unassigned a color. At first, I thought that they were just utilizing the already white canvas.. nope, the picture looks, and is, unfinished. There’s other minor things that have changed that I just don’t like, but could’ve lived with if I was actually able to finish a picture. Also, I can appreciate the need for ads, but holy cow, there’s so many. It used to be worth waiting to do the pic for all the ads, not anymore. I think I’ll be deleting the app unfortunately. It’s a shame, it was so great and one of the only apps I actually used.

  • No Tip Ads

    I loved this coloring game. Great pictures with rich colors. However, after playing it a few months I wasn’t offered the Ad for tips. First they gave me shorter ads for 10 tips, plus longer ads for 20 tips. After awhile, they quit offering the 20 tip ads. A couple months later I’m no longer getting the 10 tip ads. I have ran out of tips and have no way of getting more for tiny pieces I can’t find. I complained about it and received an email saying if a color isn’t found in 10 seconds, it will give you a tip. NO, IT DOESN’T! After 10 seconds the tip bulb wiggles letting you know it’s there. But, if you have no tips it just wiggles. I’ve done everything I can think of, but to no avail. 😏👎🏻

    Hi! Soon Easter coloring pages will appear in Happy Canvas! Thank you for staying with us.
  • Easy to use

    I love the question mark canvas. They are so much fun and I love to see if I guessed correctly on what the painting is. I also like the fact that after I have finished a color—— it automatically goes to the next color and I don’t spend 10 minutes looking for the color I had been working on. Now, I know you can say just look down at the color graph—— but at my age (70******) you can easily forget. I have several of my of my more mature friends (old) that I have introduced to your app. They love it also!

  • Froze first time…

    This app continued to freeze up and at the half way point of my first picture I had to shut it down because it froze and it inevitably shut down. I cleaned out all the data and cookies in my history, shut down my IPad and restarted. It still continued to freeze up, drag in loading, etc. Finished up the picture and deleted the app. It would’ve been nice I think if it would’ve worked but it didn’t. No app should struggle this badly especially one that’s only supposed to be a coloring app.

  • Makes my phone run too hot

    Out of the Paint by Number apps I have tried, this one is my favorite. However, the app makes my phone very hot. Hot enough to cause problems with getting it to respond when I try to close the app or reboot. None of the other coloring apps do this. My phone is brand new and I worry about causing permanent damage. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but it didn’t make a difference. So, sadly, I am going to have to delete it permanently.

    Three stars because the pictures and colors are very nice. If it wasn’t for the heat issue, it would be five stars.

  • Little critique

    I would rate this game a five as I like to play it to pass the time; although as a member of service I get upset when on the holiday section there is no memorial day or anything recognizing the military. It’s a small pet peeve of mine but I think that if you can put religious pictures in the game, that you should most definitely put armed forces in the game as well. My thinking on this goes as follows, religion, in the game but not everyone accepts or believes religion. Now look at military, no matter how much people want to overlook the military or not recognize the military it is 100% a thing, its not a thing someone can “no believe is real” like people can do with religion. So if religion which cant be proven to be real is in the game, most definitely military should be because it is real no matter how hard you try to turn a blind eye to it. I am a religious guy so I enjoy the religious pictures but I also think that military should be recognized and when Memorial Day passed and I saw nothing that recognizes the sacrifices we make in the military each day, it hurt. So if the developers see this, take this into consideration when I say, you won’t regret adding pictures that coincide with the military/armed forces. Thank you.

  • Happy canvas

    Been using this color app for over a year. It’s just about my favorite. The pictures are beautiful! I did notice that over the course of time the colors are getting a bit duller though. I especially like the houses and interiors but the rest are nice also. But most seem to be all shades of browns and tans and beiges and more neutral colors. Earlier pictures are much brighter and colorful. Plz bring back the colors!

  • Great app but just one small thing…

    Hi! Basically, I’ve had this app for a while now and I gotta say, ur pictures are amazing, colors match the pictures perfectly, and your creativity is spot on! However, there is only one small thing that kind if annoys me. Its just the fact that whenever u are filling in the spaces with color, u highlighted them in gray. This makes it really hard to find those spots and hard to color them in to finish the picture. Other than that, no complaints. Over all, this is the best coloring app I’ve ever had. I can tell u put lot of effort into this app. Many people complain about not being able to listen to music. Guys, its fine! Just play music on another device if u can. If u cant, I totally understand. Anyways, thanks for making a great game!

  • Very Poor Performance Lately

    I have been playing this app for several years and have enjoyed it very much - so relaxing. HOWEVER, performance - smooth operation, response time, lock ups - have gotten SO bad in the last few months I am about ready to delete it and move on. Frequent closing and relaunching app to continue plat is extremely frustrating. The longer I play, the worse performance gets. The developer needs to fix this if it wants long-time users to hang around.

  • Continued lack of diversity

    I have criticized you several times before for your failure to represent people of color and diverse cultures in your app pictures. Every time I’ve posted you’ve managed to come up with one or two pics that meet this standard, but it never continues. Right now we’re in the middle of Black History month and nothing has been posted to honor the great history, contributions and heritage of our African American citizens. At Christmas, virtually all the pictures were very traditional, Euro and white centric. That’s fine as long as you balance such pictures with black or Latinex families also celebrating. No respresentation was provided for Kwanzaa. There were a few depictions of Hanukkah, thankfully. Also, there was a nod to our folks of Asian heritage with Chinese New Year.

    Oh, and often when people of color, indigenous, Asian or Latinex folks are depicted, they are very stereotyped. Why not add folks of various races and heritages into regular pictures doing normal everyday things?

    I’ll give you just a bit longer before I delete your app to see if you can correct the problem.

    Hi, thank you for your detailed review, it is very important for us! Our artists try to add approximately the same number of drawings depicting people of different nations. We are very sorry that you felt that we give preference to certain nations, which is not true. Feel free to connect us at support@auragames.co and elaborate more on "stereotyping" in the image of different peoples, we will try to change our approach to rendering.
