  • Unsupported. Don’t purchase.

    It would be great if the developers kept the app updated with paints and with bugs. Many paints available to me are not in the app. The photo library and internet color selection no longer works. There is no way to select colors based on RGB, HEX, or other color classification systems. The developer is unresponsive to these issues. The App Store no longer recognizes that I paid for the full version. Save your money.

    Revision: In review of developer comments, the issues described above remain. My installed app says iModelKit Light, but the id6 store (not Apple App Store) says I have the premium plus inventory version. The refresh feature is inactive. Paint charts can be updated but many don’t exist. I’m not going to risk downloading the full version again for $9.99 to have the same problems. The last app update was 7 years ago. Too long. Save your money until the app is rebuilt.

    I'm sorry you are not happy with our App. However, before submitting a review you shoud have contacted us (info@id6.ch) or checked the faq on our website (https://www.id6.ch) so that we could have helped you. We always reply to our users within 24-48 hours. We regularly post chart updates as well as brand new charts on our website so that your paint catalog can be updated. You can create a new chart and with "dummy" paints using RGB values and then find equivalences (or even a mix) with other paints. You can always recover the full release from the App Store located in our App, there is a restore button for that. We are working on a brand new release of iModelKit to enhance and correct the App. However it takes longer than expected as there have been tremendous changes in Apple Development tools that prevent us from posting updates of older code. The new tools are just becoming stable and well featured enough to meet the needs of a complex app such as iModelKit.

  • New review

    My first review was from 2014 and I don't see it here anymore so an updated review would not be amiss.
    I absolutely love this app. I have over six pocket sized note books full of color recipes. I dare say over 800+ colors. From everywhere. Reading an hobby article. New recipe. Find a picture, chase down the recipe using RGB feature. Find the color RGB numbers, make a color chip for it, mix using your favorite brand of paint.
    I try to convert 99.9% of the recipes to Tamiya brand, because they easily available to me, practically foolproof system and very few colors can not be mixed with them.
    Support is fantastic.
    Other companies large and small could learn a lot about customer relations from these people.
    As a suggestion, I asked if they had seen the popularity of craft paints being used by people on YT, and on one of the next updates, several brands were included as options for inclusion. I'd like to think I had something to do with that.
    I understand in the near future another update is due and so look forward to that one.
    You can not go wrong with this app.

  • Doesn’t work anymore

    Nothing happens when I try to pick a colour out of the sample picture using my iPhone 14, all I get is a black screen.

    Developer Response

    We are sorry you encountered an issue with our App. We have never heard of such an issue by our other customers and the iPhone 7 is fully supported. However, we will be able to help you and find a solution if you contact our support at info@id6.ch and provide more detailed information about your issue. The Review page being not the perfect place to provide support because of its long delays in publishing. Thank you.
  • Not for me

    I just can’t get this to work for me on iPad, though I’ve tried it a number of times

    Developer Response

    We are sorry you encountered issues with our App. It should work well on an iPad (although in iPhone Mode). You can contact us at info@id6.ch to describe your issue so that we can help you make it work as it should. We are also working on a brand new release with support for full iPad Mode.
  • Disappointed

    The barcode scanner worked erratically, skipped many colors in the same series that it found others in like ak interactive and reaper. When will you come out with ak interactive real colors?

    Developer Response

    We are sorry you encountered issus with our App. The barcode scanner should work properly with the cited paints as we use the standard Apple barcode scanner. However, there are some tricks to know to use it properly such as being in a well lighted environment to scan (the scanner is sensible to contrast and focus). These tricks are available on the help screen of the scanner (tap on the scanner title). You can also contact our support at info@id6.ch as the review is not the best place for support (slow and no privacy). If you need a refund, you have to contact Apple for that as payments are fully manage by them. UPDATE AK Real Colours as well as a lot of other new charts are available from our website : http://www.id6.ch. Go to the News to see the full list of new charts and updates and how to download these. Again, You can contact our support at info@id6.ch if you need more information or Help. We are also working on a brand new release with a better way to detect and download new charts.
  • No Comparison charts

    This appears to be more of a list of catalogs/paints and how to mix them. Unfortunately I’m looking for substitution charts. When given an FS number or Italeri number what would be the closest Tamiya bottle and/or spray. My misunderstanding.

    Developer Response

    iModelKit does have comparison charts. You just have to select the paint you search the equivalence for to see equivalences for other brands.  However, the free release only contains the comparison charts that are provided by paint manufacturers. Computed equivalences, that gives at least one equivalence for each colour and brand, are available with the Premium release. If you need more information, please contact our support at info@id6.ch.
  • Fantastic Support

    I’m mostly using the application to keep track of my paints. I noted that they didn’t have any of the Wilder products listed and decided to just shoot them a quick email on a Saturday asking if they planned to include them in the future. I couldn’t believe it but received a response the next day.

    I can’t emphasize enough that it’s clear id6 has the highest regard for customer input and providing the best product of its kind on the market. Cheers gentlemen!

  • Decent but needs updating.

    Decent app, but really needs to be updated. Many colors since the last release, aka MRP that are not listed. Really hope the devs comeback to this app.

    Developer Response

    MRP as well as a lot of other new and updated charts are available from our website at http://www.id6.ch. Please check the news to see which charts have been added / updated. A new bunch of updates will be delivered by the end of the month.
  • Great app but needs improvement

    Really useful app with a lot of features. Unfortunately they can be hard to find and aren’t intuitive.

    The help is OK but needs to be flesh out more with better examples.

    The support on the other hand is fantastic! Any time I had a question they answered it straight away (no matter how many times I asked the same thing ☺️).

    I fully recommend this app and am looking forward to its upgrade.
