Terrible interface
Awful and confusing for small kids. Cannot use unsupervised. Keeps asking her to buy things. Stop using modal dialogs.
It's an elaborate ad.

Needs Improvement
The premise of this app is good, the execution is quite poor. The drawings are top notch and the colors and patterns are fine. The real problem is the performance. It runs very slow for a paint program running on the iPad. The interface makes it difficult to use, even more so for children. Most troubling though is the amount of crashes. My child has yet to be able to finish and save a monster after about an hour of use; annoying for an adult, even worse for a child. If they can work past and patch these problems then the app may be worth a purchase, as of now it maybe money wasted.

Monstrously Cute
At first I was like, "Wonderful... another money grubbing app..." when I saw that you had to buy "monsterbucks" to purchase the patterns and colors they feature in the review. BUT! Changed my mind quickly when I saw that they give you 10,000 "monsterbucks" to start with and you continue to earn more as you use regular features throughout the app itself.
I see that everyone else uses this app for kids... I'm 20. I use this app when I'm bored and have a few minutes to kill. I didn't want any regular coloring app. Monsters just happen to make it intriguing for all ages!

Music - crashing
It would be nice to be able to play own music or have some kind of longer playlist so it doesn't loop so much. Crashes quite often - otherwise pretty enjoyable.
Cute but buggy!
Downloaded this for my brothers kids. The idea and the graphics are really nice but the app is really buggy, keeps freezing and quitting every time you paint more than one colour. Please sort this out!!!!
Great for cranky 41 year olds. Kids would probably like it too.
I'm crazy about this app! It's cute, fun and ridiculously engrossing. If I need to relax but have limited time, I just color a monster and go back to the business of my day a little more cheerful. I would love to see more stickers available--- a customizable speech bubble would be awesome. I would instantly give this 5 stars if I could zoom into the picture. It's still a lot of fun on an iPod Touch or iPhone but it would be easier to use with zoom.

Absolutely Beautiful
This app is an overall spectacular experience. There is a really nice variety of pages to color along with a nice range of tools to enable you to hit the ground running. If you want to spend time adding the attention to detail by picking a brush or decal to really make the monster your own. It's very easy to output your customized monster to your photo album along with a printer with adds a great "cool factor". At first it was a little challenging for my 4 1/2 daughter to pick the tools or monsters that she wanted to use because you have to purchase the items with monster bucks, however after taking a little time to set things up for her she was able to easily enjoy the app without my help so I would suggest, for younger kids, to take a few minutes to help set it up.
As for utilizing some of the full capabilities of the iOS, it can't be any better. A single purchase enables it for both your iPhone and the iPad and, once again, the printing feature really makes the app complete. I really look forward to seeing how The Monster Coloring Book evolves over time.

Great addictive app
Love the app but it's needs alot of improvements like the ability to zoom in and out. The user interface need to be redesigned, as a graphic designer I would like it to be more like (adobe ideas) app. I'm sure if u do it, this app will be one of the app store hits
Wonderful app!
I'm a grandmother and my grandkids love coloring at our house and in the car. We also have fun printing their pictures. Even grandpa uses this!
Love this app but have suggestions for improvement
This app is great. As an adult who loves to color, this is one way for me to have a coloring book without hearing snickers from my husband. I would suggest you add the ability to allow the user to zoom on an area or move the picture around. Also, once a color is selected it would be nice if the bar would go away, since clicking on something on the picture to get rid of the color bar makes wherever you click turn that color. Another thing that would be nice is adding the ability to listen to iTunes instead of the classical selections. Anyway, great app! Can't wait to see what's next.
