Other than the lack of updates, this was so great. ### 5/5 — Great game can’t open app *2019-01-16, version 1.0.7* It’s a great game but I can’t open the game now ### 1/5 — Stopped working *2017-11-26, version 1.0.7* Kids loved this app but it stopped working after IOS 11 update. Developer needs to fix the compatibility issues. ### 5/5 — Love it! But there is something wrong ... *2017-10-27, version 1.0.7* I love this game! But... I wanted to download it again but the cloud was grey! What do I do? ### 4/5 — Love it but.... *2016-11-29, version 1.0.7* Great app, but can't buy upgrades! App freezes. ### 3/5 — Was working great, now won't open! *2016-03-05, version 1.0.7* My son loved this app! For some reason it has just stopped working and it won't open. Was a wonderful app for my son with special needs! He asks why it won't work...have no idea. Bummer ### 5/5 — awesome *2015-04-08, version 1.0.7* great music app you can make pics of music ### 5/5 — Mr *2014-01-20, version 1.0.7* This is simply a fantastic app I use this in special education, it's movement sensor function is brilliant, my pupils love it and I find it really easy to set up. Being able to see the sounds on screen and the way the paint twinkles when triggered is just lovely. This app has a wider appeal that just under 5s and is really nice for people with disabilities Don't be put off by the silly rabbit ### 1/5 — Not good *2014-01-12, version 1.0.7* Confusing. Makes you buy more parts of the app and still is confusing. Not fun. Don't waste your time or money. ### 4/5 — Interesting version of Beatwave *2014-01-07, version 1.0.7* I like that this is kids focused, and that the camera enables kids to get creative. One bug I found Is that the app icon disappears once the app is finished installing, nothing but a white icon. ## Frequently asked questions about Color Band ### What is Color Band?
