### 4/5 — Something is wrong with the black color when I put it on clothes

*2024-10-31, version 1.7*

Idk

### 3/5 — Pas facile à prendre en mains…

*2024-05-03*

Cette app n’est pas du tout intuitive ; il faut s’accrocher. L’image colorisée ne s’enregistre pas dans un album « Change color » comme on pourrait s’y attendre : il faut l’enregistrer soi- même là où on veut la mettre. J’ai mis du temps à le comprendre… Cette app ne demande pas l’autorisation d’accès à nos photos (Google photos, en l’occurrence) ni à nos albums : elle y a accès automatiquement. Quelque part, c’est … intrusif ? (Raison pour laquelle je ne mets que 3 étoiles). Sinon,  Elle fonctionne bien une fois qu’on a compris le système. Contente que cette application soit européenne !

### 4/5 — No black

*2024-03-31, version 1.7*

There’s no way to make it black like it used to,now it just makes white,please bring back black and white feature.

### 4/5 — Ok, I'll try again

*2024-03-14, version 1.7*

I've had this app for years but frankly, I've always never used it. Why? Look at the logo. It's awful. It's dorky. It's off-putting. Oh- and it doesn't even *look* like a color splash app. I don't mean it should be another Surprised-Woman-Holding-Citrus-to-her-Eye logo (ouch!) but this isn’t better. 

But I'll try to remember what it is and to use it because it's not insanely expensive nor is it full of gimmicks or “features” real all-around editors have.

### 4/5 — Decent - Basic

*2023-10-21, version 1.4*

It would be nice if the functionality included white washing or transparency, layering as I use it for preview in color changes on furniture.

### 4/5 — Good but..

*2023-10-07, version 1.3*

This app is great and useful but can you add shades for black? Like blackish gray? Cuz I’m tryna change something’s color for that and I don’t want it to look like I just drew over it on some art app, pls fix

### 3/5 — Doesn’t change shades well

*2023-10-05, version 1.2*

It changes color really good but if you plan on changing a color to black it’s not happening with this app.

### 5/5 — Good

*2023-03-11, version 1.2*

Got the Job done, needed to change color and it let me zoom in to change it. I’m satisfied with the product.

### 5/5 — Very Cool 😎

*2022-07-17, version 1.2*

I like 👍 this it’s easy to use to change the color of clothes.

### 5/5 — Some Issues but Works!

*2022-04-01, version 1.2*

I was just trying to change the color of my car to see what it would look like… And surprisingly I couldn’t find any app for that. I found this one and tried it. It’s definitely needing some work but it did the job in the end that I was able to save my photo. I’m surprised the developer hasn’t worked on this harder because it’s a one-of-a-kind app and I think it would be really popular. I love how you paint the object and it doesn’t completely mask the object but rather lets the background shine through so it looks like it’s really been painted. Worked great for free!

### 5/5 — Review

*2022-03-16, version 1.2*

Good app it really helped me for replacing colors but you guys should add different type of colors so it will be more interesting

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Hard to use slow to select

*2024-12-13, version 1.7*

Hard to use, slow like photoshop, like an app from the late 90s, no AI, no one time purchase better ones out there for free would not recommend, cancelled subscription.

### 1/5 — Developer Guidelines

*2024-07-14, version 1.7*

3.1.2(a) Permissible uses: If you offer an auto-renewable subscription, you must provide ongoing value to the customer.

### 1/5 — lack of instructions, difficult to use.

*2024-07-03, version 1.7*

i’ve been trying to use this app for the past 20 minutes just to change the colour of a background. no luck with figuring out how to use it. if you’ve actually provided clear instructions then i would have given more stars. bro can’t even provide instructions in an app is a joke.

### 1/5 — Terrible, no instructions!

*2024-06-09, version 1.7*

Oh dear, how is it possible to make an app so user unfriendly!
Lots of icons that supposedly do different things but no idea given of what they do or how to use them! The Only way of selecting a colour I could find was a big brush of which you couldn’t change the size of making the app practically unusable.
No idea of how to change different parts of the image to different colours either despite it being shown in the apps screen shots.

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2024-01-23, version 1.7*

Another reviewer said it worked to change the color of their car, which is what i wanted. To what color? The weird greenish is all you get and it’s applied with a huge pen you can’t change the size of. Worst app i’ve ever installed and instantly removed.

### 1/5 — Video ads!?!

*2023-11-07*

The app goes untouched forever nearly six years & that update wasn’t even the developer it was Apple to make the app compatible with Apple Watch. Beyond that developer only updated once. Then nothing for 6 years and so I hesitated to update when I saw there was one and I wish I’d not updated. Prior the app didn’t have ads it wasn’t perfect but it worked well and I used it often. Now I’m going to delete it. There’s no real update given that’s worth anything however the developer has decided to load the application with ads. Not just a little banner at the bottom of the screen but huge ads that take up the entire screen that require you to tape it to close. App developers have every right to seek compensation for their work. However you don’t wait six years then without warning push an “update” in an effort to do what you didn’t when you first released the app and seek to make up for lost revenue by overloading the app with ads without giving the person who’s using said app a method of removing the ads like paying for the ads removal. It’s worth .99 or a dollar or two cause the app great but it’s not worth an indefinite ad revenue. Greed not a good look.

### 1/5 — REALLY!?!

### 1/5 — ads ruined it.

*2023-10-24, version 1.4*

I used to love this app, but now that you put ads in it, it's no fun. Dissapointed.

### 1/5 — Não ensina como mexer

*2023-05-05, version 1.2*

O app não é intuitivo, não conseguir mudar cor nenhuma. Não dá pra saber como funciona.

### 1/5 — No instructions

*2021-10-30, version 1.2*

I’ve tried everything on the screen that this app has to offer and I still couldn’t get anything to work.

### 5/5 — simple but all you need.

*2026-05-28, version 1.8*

i luv this app; it's not really popular, but it's incredibly simple and all you need. It doesn't have anything extra, it gets right to the point — replacing colours from a photo.

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2026-04-29, version 1.8*

I actually have no idea why anyone would rate this app negatively. It’s easy enough to use right off the bat, and with some practice, you can do all sorts of things with it. They somewhat recently updated and fixed just about every minor complaint I may have had, and there’s now a size changer tool, an opacity slider, and an option to scale your pictures to they aren’t compressed. This is the only app I ever use to change colours of pictures, the rest just can’t compare. Very few ads with no pop-ups and an extremely reasonably priced yearly subscription to remove them, clear, strong colours, near infinite zoom, and plenty of tools so you can do just about anything. I highly recommend this app over any others.

### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2025-08-19, version 1.7*

This is a great app, perfect for changing colours of cars or bikes and anything really so much better than any other mobile app I’ve downloaded

### 5/5 — It actually colorizes!

*2025-02-24, version 1.7*

I tried many apps, and this is the only one I could find that would actually colorize an image. The constant popup ads almost make the app unusable.

### 5/5 — Jade Choi

2025

### 5/5 — Thanks!!

*2025-01-20, version 1.7*

Did exactly what I needed it to, with ease.

### 5/5 — Guay

*2025-01-13*

Extraordinario

### 5/5 — Falta versión sin anuncios

*2023-10-07*

Ojalá y saquen una versión sin anuncios. Esta buena la app

### 5/5 — Recomendo

*2023-06-30, version 1.2*

Me surpreendi com a praticidade desse app, muito simples e pratico de se usar, e o melhor sem anúncios! Maravilhoso 👏👏

### 5/5 — EXCELENTE NAQUILO QUE SE PROPÕE

*2023-04-24, version 1.2*

Só poderia te a opção de aumentar e diminuir o tamanho do pincel. Fora isso, app TOP!!!!
