App is a waste - better off going to a store and getting the physical chips (at least the chips indicate suggested ceiling/trim/accent colours). If you must use an app, other brands do significantly better. This app is useless. I only tried it as I was looking at this brand of paint. Uninstalled after a couple minutes - it’s that useless - you can’t do anything with this. ### 1/5 — No good *2023-04-04* Not able to choose a photo from gallery. Useless app ### 1/5 — Needs a search tool *2022-11-16* This app needs work! Needs a search tool, a way to upload pictures to work with and a much better way to look at the Color palette. A person does not have time to go through each individual pinky finger nail Color block to figure out what Color it is??!! ### 1/5 — Buggy at best *2021-10-11* This app is slow and unrealistic. I definitely prefer visiting a painting professional. ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2021-01-21* Says there is not adequate light, tried many different walls even a different building ### 1/5 — Not working *2020-09-25* Can’t get it to work on my iPad. The paint Color was there but it didn’t stay on was mottled in appearance. Just not very effective. I was outside during the day at the time trying to determine a colour for my front door. Very frustrating. **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for the review. Colours appear mottled if the lighting conditions in the room are low. When the room is not well lit, the camera finds it difficult to distinguish wall colours. Please let us know if this helps. Thank you. ### 1/5 — Not working *2020-08-21* Downloaded to try it in my office space because we will be renovating and I’d like to try colour options. I’ve ensured there is adequate lighting but it doesn’t change the wall colour on my phone. Thought maybe I had to hit the camera button to make it work but it just asked if I wanted to save a picture or send it to other people or apps? Good idea, terrible app **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for your feedback, after you select your colour you will have to tap on the wall to change its colour. We will be adding a tutorial to help with the paint feature. Thank you. ### 1/5 — It does not paint the walls. *2020-06-09* It doesn’t work **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for your feedback, after you select your colour you will have to tap on the wall to change its colour. We will be adding a tutorial to help with the paint feature. Thank you. ### 2/5 — Needs a search *2021-06-13* You find a colour you like online or in store and want to use the app to visualize it. Good luck finding it in the sea of colours. Needs the ability to pull up a colour by name or code. Would also be useful to be able to have complementary colours and shades handy. ### 2/5 — Not stable *2021-05-31* This app froze regularly and it was impossible to get the colour visualizer to work properly. Being unable to check two colours, walls and trim, at once was disappointing. That was my whole reason to use the app. ## Most praised reviews (7 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Sarah *2020-09-23* Really cool app this helped me pick out the colours for both my kids rooms. The person at my local home hardware suggested I use it. Saved me from having to go back and forth especially during covid. At first it seemed like it wasn’t working and then I realized that my app setting for camera was off. Once I turned it on I was able to project the colours. **Developer response:** We are glad you enjoyed the app! Thank you. ### 3/5 — Ok *2021-11-29* Needs a search tool and would rather upload a pic then always have to be in the room to see what it looks like ### 3/5 — Search tool *2021-02-22* Needs a search tool. ### 3/5 — Track a selection *2021-01-23* Would be handy to be able to keep the colours I want to look at together. Need a “search” function too. Spent too much time going back and forth trying to find the ones I liked. ### 3/5 — More options *2020-11-24* It would be better if we had the option to lighten or darken the colours instead of trying to search for a similar colour. Also, sorting them by warm and cool colours and would be helpful. ### 3/5 — Color palette works but virtual paint doesn’t *2020-09-08* It’s nice to have the palettes available on the go, but the augmented reality is not working. It does not paint the walls on the room. Please fix, thanks. **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for your feedback, after you select your colour you will have to tap on the wall to change its colour. We will be adding a tutorial to help with the paint feature. Thank you. ### 3/5 — Love the available colours *2020-06-29* I enjoy looking at the different available colours even though I can’t get the virtual part to work. What I would like to see is an ability to save the colours I love so I can compare them and choose. **Developer response:** Hello, Thank you for your feedback, after you select your colour you will have to tap on the wall to change its colour. We will be adding a tutorial to help with the paint feature. Thank you. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
