### 1/5 — 광고 장난하는 것도 아니고 무료 어플로 만들어놓지를 말든지 소비자가 만만한가보네요 진짜

*2022-10-12*

유료어플로 만들어 놓지 광고를 엄청 심어놔서 답답하게 하네요 
유료결제 하지 않고는 사용하지도 못하는 수준이에요
빠른 삭제가 답입니다 여러분
애초에 다운로드로 하지 않는걸 추천합니다

광고로 인해 만족스러운 경험을 드리지 못해 죄송합니다.
말씀 주신 사항을 관련 팀에 전달하고 개선할 수 있도록 노력하겠습니다.

감사합니다.

### 1/5 — Pornographic ads

*2022-09-12*

The ad was advertising an app where you could scratch the clothes off of a scantily clad woman. Deleted immediately as that crap is not at all appropriate for a child.

**Developer response:** Hello, I'm Pink Pong.

We apologize for the inconvenience caused by the inappropriate advertisement unintentionally.

### 1/5 — Too many ads

*2022-08-02*

0/5 Ads for everything and ads on drawing screen. Daughter kept hitting ads and couldn’t draw. Some ads were things like for apartments. Felt very predatory.

### 4/5 — It has PINKFONG

*2022-04-25*

wow when you guys updated the baby shark coloring book you added pinkfong and pinkfong is my favorite character love it!!

### 1/5 — Awful.

*2022-03-25*

Recently they blocked all the colors behind a prescription pay wall - not to mention tons of ads. Horrible app. Deleted it and will be finding something more child friendly.

### 4/5 — 아이가 모르고 결제 를 진행하였습니다

*2022-02-26*

환불요청드립니다. 만약 여기서 진행이 안되면 환불 진행을 어디서 해야할까요?

### 3/5 — 좋은데

*2021-10-16*

아이가 좋아하는데 새로 나온 그림 중 마녀가 그려진 그림은 누르고 들어가면 백지만 뜨네요.. 태블릿이 이상한 건가요? 아니면 앱 오류인가요?

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요 핑크퐁입니다.

유관부서 측으로 전달드려 확인해본 결과,

### 1/5 — BAD

*2021-09-02*

It won’t let you color  on certain places and there are adds every 5 minutes my lol sister loves it but throws the phone when she can’t color so DONT GET THIS APP!!!!

### 1/5 — Ads situation

*2021-07-03*

My children love this app but ads are covering the tools used to draw. They cannot color with the ads there. So I have to delete the app because of them. When I deleted the app, my youngest kid was super angry and was crying. I wished there was a no ads version.

### 1/5 — zero star-ANGRY FACE

*2021-07-03*

Absolutely TERRIBLE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF CHILDREN WITH A $80 monthly subscription to freakin color digitally. The click trap is in the worst possible place! You guys can go to a deep place .

### 1/5 — New update

*2021-06-20*

The new update is TRASH y’all changed it all now it loads super slow now y’all wanna charge y’all are DIRTY for that

### 1/5 — Went downhill-have to pay for membership now

*2021-06-19*

My daughter LOVED this app until a few days ago when pinkfong updated it. Now you have to pay $9 a month to use any of the features. I can’t justify that for an app we’ve had for over a year that has been free all that time. Lame. Deleting all pinkfong apps. They should have just made a second app if they wanted a paid version.

### 1/5 — Terrible purchase

*2025-05-26*

My 5 yr old purchased without permission and I immediately asked for a refund and they denied it. Sneaky way to get people to purchase it and the app continues with adult ads that makes the kids unhappy. 
Do not purchase this item. Scam scam scam.

### 1/5 — 아무리 광고로 돈번다지만…

*2024-03-05*

너무많잖아 광고가 세살 네살 애들이하는데 잘누르지도 못하는 어플을갖다가 광고만 주구장창 나오게 하면은 게임을 어떻게하겠냐? 생각좀하고 만들어가 개발자야

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요, 핑크퐁입니다!

광고로 인해 만족스러운 경험을 드리지 못해 죄송합니다.

### 1/5 — 음….

*2024-01-27*

무료도안이 몇개 없어요ㅠㅠ

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요 핑크퐁입니다.
아쉽게도 무료로 제공되는 도안 외에는 별도의 결제가 필요한 점 참고 부탁드려요.
고맙습니다.

### 1/5 — Pure crap, kids rip-off

*2023-06-20*

Don’t use that app, check this amazing annually costs to remove those ads. This is completely nuts and an extreme disappointment for my child! We kicked all of that Pingfong stuff to garbage and avoid now everything coming from them. There are other kids friendly toons. 

Shame to Apple to allow such a rip-off to hurt kids.

### 1/5 — 아이패드프로 구형인데..화면. 위아래가 짤리네요

*2023-06-02*

무료버전이라서 그런건가하고 유료로 결제했는데도 화면 위아래가 짤리네요.
색칠이안되요 ….
아이패드 비율이 안 좋아서 그런건가….?
아이가 아기상어를 좋아하는데…많이 아쉽네요…
비율 수정 항목이 생겼으면 좋겠어요…
아니면
환불을 해주시던가요……

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요. 핑크퐁입니다.
앱 이용에 불편을 끼쳐드린 점 양해 부탁드리며,

아쉽게도 본 리뷰 상에서는 정확한 확인이 어려움에 따라
번거로우시더라도 아래 경로로 
기기 정보(모델명, OS버전) 및 문제 현상을 다시금 말씀 부탁드립니다.

### 1/5 — TOO MANY ADS DO NOT INSTALL

*2023-01-16*

there are too many ads that take too long to clear, they also pop up like every 45 seconds or every time you click on something new!!! This company should be ashamed

**Developer response:** Hello, this is Pinkfong!

We are sorry that the advertisement did not give you a satisfactory experience.
We will deliver your message to the relevant team and try to improve.

Thank you.

### 1/5 — Ad ad ad

*2023-01-14*

This is absurd, you cannot click on ads to close. Every click opens ad, totally unplayable...

### 1/5 — Long ads

*2023-01-03*

Horrible and long ads. We use other Coloring apps but this one is Unusable.

### 1/5 — 별로

*2023-01-01*

뭐만누르면 광고나오고 뒤돌아가기도안되고
이럴거 왜만듭니까?하다가
어이가없어서

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요. 핑크퐁입니다.

앱 이용 중 불편을 드리게 되어 무척 안타까우며,
앞으로 보다 나은 서비스를 드릴 수 있도록 항상 노력하겠습니다.

고맙습니다.

### 1/5 — 인트로 광고

*2022-11-26*

유료구매해도 인트로에 광고따라붙는거 진짜 최악이네요
20000원 결제하고 애기들 시작하자마자 광고 뜨니 실수로 클릭하게 되고 위에 작게 어플실행하기 하는거 최악의 꼼수인듯..
그렇다고 버그가 없는것도 아니고 툭하면 색칠 안칠해지고 멈추는데..진짜 왠만하면 후기 안쓰는데 너무 최악이라 한마디 남깁니다.

**Developer response:** 안녕하세요. 핑크퐁입니다.

### 5/5 — A Colorful World Of Fun At Our Fingertips!

*2024-07-02*

I love this app and so does my 3 year old daughter! I love how you can pick out a color and color in super cute coloring pages. She has played on this app for hours on the tablet, I don’t mind screen time now because it is educational and fun for girls her age. We have also unlocked the coloring pages that were locked, and it was worth the money! I even played it and even I had fun with it! It’s like having a colorful world of coloring and learning at our fingertips. It keeps her busy so I can get a moment of peace around the house. This app is the best!

**Developer response:** Thank you for loving the PINKFONG app.

We will do our best to always provide good service.
