I know this coloring book worked once before here but for some reason it’s just slow to get anywhere to do anything on it. Please fix this ### 2/5 — Won’t load *2021-05-08, version 1.11.0* Went to play this today loaded one time and got stuck. Tried 2 more times and it will not load it’s stuck again. Please fix. Even uninstalled and reinstalled. Still will not load. Said there is something wrong with my internet connection which there is not ### 3/5 — The one problem for me *2021-01-16* I like the game, but there is a problem for me when I want to play it. The problem is I can’t color at all! That is frustrating. I can go into the app and click on the one I want to color then it starts to load, and I wait then it is says there is something wrong with my internet connection and wants to me to try again and it also says sorry for the inconvenience. This has happens to me so many times. I will delete it then get it again and it says the same thing. If you could fix this I would appreciate it! 😁 Over all I like the app. ### 2/5 — Doesn’t work *2020-10-20, version 1.11.0* I like the concept but it doesn’t open or if it does I can only complete one story. But once complete it will not save ### 1/5 — “Bad WiFi” *2020-10-02, version 1.11.0* I tried to go into one of the stories and it said to connect to WiFi to do it. You might be like “well connect to wifi” but I am connected to wifi totally and I was in my house! All the other people in my house’s phones were working! So was the tv! I used to have it and it worked fine. Now, since I can’t even go in it I’m gonna rate it 1 star. ### 2/5 — I did like the App 😕 *2020-09-23, version 1.11.0* I have been playing this game off and on for awhile now. Depends on my mood. It’s fun and cool and I really like the stories. Problem is...now it doesn’t load. It acts like it wants to but gets stuck at the very beginning of opening the app. I closed out of it. Went in again and same thing. I’m beyond frustrated trying to figure it out. I even deleted it and downloaded it again. It worked one day and it was stuck again. Please help or fix. Frustrated... ### 2/5 — App Won’t Load *2020-08-30, version 1.11.0* Was a great concept, but recent updates have broken the app. I can’t load in anymore! Fix please! ;( ### 1/5 — What changed? *2020-08-26, version 1.11.0* After the latest update I’m no longer able to open the app. I get a white background with a loading bar at the bottom that never fills. Please Help! ### 3/5 — Good game, but cant get back in. *2020-08-22, version 1.11.0* I loved when they added the stories. Some may disagree, but i loved them. I did them alot and started playing this game all the time. I would give the a five star, but today when i tried to join, i was stuck and the white loading screen and nothing would load at all. Very upset. ### 2/5 — Glitchy *2020-08-18, version 1.11.0* Fun when it actually works. Most of the time it doesn’t load and I have to delete then redownload the app. Then it erases my progress. Fix it and I’ll give it five stars. ### 2/5 — It WAS great *2020-08-16, version 1.11.0* It was fun getting new images often to pick and color. Then they changed to just stories, all the same pictures we colored before. And there hasn’t been any new “stories” added in months. I’m really hoping something changes soon or I’ll just end up deleting it. This WAS my favorite coloring app by far and now it’s a disappointment. Please add more pictures please please please please please please please please please please ### 3/5 — Not working *2020-08-15, version 1.11.0* Game worked fine until recently, but now it won’t load at all. ### 1/5 — Game needs fixing *2020-08-13, version 1.11.0* Game when you go to start where you left off won’t come back on-Haven’t been able to get game to play. Just a blank white page will not start up. As working fine in beginning ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I’m confused *2024-11-27, version 1.11.0* I used to love this game so much, then I stopped playing for a bit. So I deleted it for more storage on my iPad. Then, when I redownloaded it, the first loading screen wouldn’t work, and it would say that there was an error. One thing though, that might have just been my iPad because it’s old. I’m just wondering if anybody has the same problem. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2023-11-17, version 1.11.0* This app doesn’t work, just a white screen with a loading bar at the bottom and it never moves. I don’t know how this app has a 4.7 rating ### 1/5 — App unresponsive *2022-09-21, version 1.11.0* KINDLY UPDATE THE APP ### 1/5 — This looks great but… *2022-08-19, version 1.11.0* Okay I want this app I love stories- but it won’t work- please update love the idea- glad it’s not just me ### 1/5 — This app does NOT work *2022-07-05, version 1.11.0* When I want to use this app, I get a blank screen and NOTHING happens. This app is useless. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2022-02-21, version 1.11.0* App doesn’t want to open. ### 1/5 — Won’t even load *2021-09-10, version 1.11.0* I use to love this game but now when I open it to load the bar to load the page starts and bar won’t even move !! Very disappointed!! Please fix!!! ### 1/5 — Will not load *2021-08-04, version 1.11.0* The app will not load when I have 4 bars ### 1/5 — Smh🤦🏽‍♀️🤦🏽‍♀️ *2021-05-08, version 1.11.0* The app is still NOT loading! It says something is wrong with my internet but I know that’s not true. The problem lies within the app. The concept is good but please find some people who can program it to load correctly. ### 1/5 — App’s not loading *2021-02-22, version 1.11.0* I download the app and when I try to play one of the stories it would load or said my “wifi had an inconvenience” which I knew was a lie. I used to have the app and it was really fun but now it won’t let me even play it. Please fix it and if the developers don’t fix the issue then I definitely recommend on NOT downloading it. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Help *2020-11-03, version 1.11.0* hie i really like to read and i wish there was a color by number ware all you do is pick a story and color it but no other individual coloring sheets but a reading game you color to read but completely free if not if you can color the stories for free then you should be able to do it for free other wise what is the point of a free one and i do not have money to pay for it ### 5/5 — So much fun *2020-09-17, version 1.11.0* Hi I just wanted to say thank you for making this game and my dad figured it out because I found this game and then he got it on my tablet so thank you for making it and it is so much fun ### 5/5 — Loving this app! *2020-08-15, version 1.11.0* I really enjoy this game and the story line add to the fun. However, I’m not sure if it is the app or my phone but the app froze on a white screen and will not open for me to enjoy any more. I am going to delete the app and try to download the game again hopefully this will work. I will let you know! ### 5/5 — Nice change of pace in coloring apps *2020-08-13* Several things are refreshing: Click on any color in the palette and the gray areas to be colored are slightly animated so it’s easier to see. When you finish a color (and a little line inside the color palette number shows your progress) it automatically goes to the next color in the palette so it saves time and energy of looking back and forth. All you need to do is keep tapping the gray animated areas and you’ve effortlessly colored a picture. The little stories are a nice bonus and a change of pace. So far I really enjoy this and it’s more relaxing than the more complicated, intricate, time consuming coloring apps that I got burned out on. This will be great for the grandkids! Thank you to the developers who brought us this game. ### 5/5 — Finished stories *2020-08-12, version 1.11.0* I really enjoyed this app although I finished all the stories.Will there be more or is this it ??? ### 5/5 — Art Stories... *2020-07-25, version 1.11.0* I have had this app for some time, but just started coloring early this morning. I couldn’t sleep, so I colored. Only thing, when I get started, I don’t want to stop!! I love lighthouses! That was the first piece that I colored! I thought that there would be more lighthouses after the first one, but I should have known better! I really wish there was a section that had different lighthouses from all over the world!! That would be fantastic!! This is a very good app, so far. Like I said earlier I just got started earlier this morning. I guess this picture that I just now finished was probably my 5th or 6th picture to color. It is now Saturday, July 25, 2020 at 7:35AM Central Time. (I’m from Texas!) Thanks for the app! Norma ### 5/5 — Awesome *2020-07-17, version 1.11.0* I love this coloring app. I love how it lights up and moves to show you what the color is. I like how it moves the numbers after you’ve done filling in the color. Very pretty pictures. ### 5/5 — Amazing *2020-07-12, version 1.11.0* This game is fun, peaceful, and happy at the same time. I love it. ### 5/5 — Beautiful and Challenging *2020-06-20, version 1.11.0* Beautiful but challenging paint by number stories. ### 5/5 — So satisfying! *2020-06-09* Really enjoy this game. Once you get used to it - it’s very enjoyable and satisfying! The pictures are interesting, stories are fine - nice to have a theme. I don’t know how they do this without ads. And so far there is unlimited play. I recommend. Update -so that’s it? I have colored all the pictures. No more? That’s all? I can’t even redo the pictures I did!
