Unplayable after downloading. The pictures flip so fast you cannot click on one. ### 1/5 — Can’t choose *2023-05-09, version 1.24* You can’t even choose which photo you want to color! All the photos were glitching and it was complete random of what you were going to land on. I’ve been looking through reviews and haven’t seen one like this. I hope that this bug can get fixed. Also, the game has bad graphics. It’s laggy and just runs like an older app. Please fix this as well. I will be uninstalling this app until this gets fixed. I will install it again in the next months and I will keep it if it has improved, but if it hasn’t, than I will uninstall it for good. ### 1/5 — Nothing there *2023-04-30, version 1.24* When i opened the app nothing there. Nothing would load I even refreshed multiple times and turned off my wifi. ### 1/5 — All I want is a good no wifi app *2019-09-26, version 1.14* I can’t afford to pay for full time Wifi so have been hunting the App Store looking for colouring apps. I downloaded this game but when I tried to play it all you wanted was for us to play three days free then to keep playing pay for subscription, no way will I pay to colour in. The subscription price is way too expensive for Australians and parents are not going to pay for subscription for their kids. Ok you have to earn your money on these games so as to pay your employees but also to earn your wage but does it have to be so expensive. Because I don’t have full wifi I have to use what I can get which isn’t much. If I had a wish my wish would be free non wifi colouring apps without subscription and other games as well. If I had two wishes it would be for people who have to go no wifi get all the games they want as well. I’m not a greedy person and I would love to help others in my position but unfortunately I’m not able to. I’ve said all I’m going to say but developers think about people like myself who don’t have full time wifi and can’t afford to pay subscription and and want a few extra colouring apps then maybe you’ll get more players. ### 2/5 — Good potential,but falls short *2023-02-03, version 1.24* This app has the potential to be good.When i first tried this app i though it would be great to play and help me relax,but sadly your interrupted with ads out of nowhere.The ads will come on full volume,regardless of my settings,jarring me awake when i was almost asleep.If they could remove the ads this app would be good.they already have a premium version with half the pictures locked,why do we need ads too? If you put them in between pictures that would be fine,but not in the middle. ### 2/5 — Freezes *2021-02-06, version 1.23* After coloring a few pictures the screen freezes. You have to close the app, wait a few minutes, go back to look for the picture you were coloring & start over. ### 2/5 — It was great but… *2020-08-03, version 1.20* I like the game and all but I thought it would be like small and easy pictures not really big ones but I also have another complain it’s so laggy and so it kinda took so long for me to actually get done with the picture where it looks like a kitten is laying on a hamburger but you know when you can double tap to fill it in faster well I wish you could do it in the middle of the thing instead of having to do it in the corner of the part your coloring bc you then have to go back in the corner to fill it in again ### 2/5 — Good game but weird *2019-05-14, version 1.5* I like the game a lot but is kinda weird because it doesn’t fill in like you can’t hold it in and fill basically like sand box coloring you can’t do it like sand box coloring so that’s why it’s weird. but there’s other things about this game it doesn’t need WiFi witch i use all the time. This is not a fact this is a opinion of me. I like this game but those are the reasons that the game is weird. ### 3/5 — This is getting annoying *2022-03-23, version 1.24* All the actual good ones are locked 😡 ### 3/5 — It’s good but... *2021-02-24, version 1.23* So this is my first day playing the game, and I am working on a picture.But I realized that when I double tap it takes me a couple times of double tapping before it actually goes through.Don’t get me wrong,I love the pictures and stuff but honestly...It’s just kinda boring and there isn’t a lot of pictures unless you pay for it and I just wish that us poor people didn’t have to pay just on some game that isn’t even that fun. I am rating this in my own opinion if you like the game than that’s fine. You should download the game to know for sure if it’s a good game for you or not. Overall I like the game but it just needs a few changes. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — 😍❤️🅛🅞🅥🅘🅝🅖 🅣🅗🅘🅢 🅐🅟🅟 🅢🅞 🅜🅤🅒🅗❤️😍 *2026-03-31, version 1.26* → ❥𝗍𝗁í𝗌 𝖼σ𝗅σ𝗋 вч 𝗇𝗎𝗆вє𝗋𝗌 α𝗉𝗉 𝗋σ𝖼𝗄𝗌! 𝗅σ𝗏í𝗇𝗀 í𝗍 𝗍σ вє 𝗁σ𝗇є𝗌𝗍❥ ### 5/5 — Best game ever *2025-12-30, version 1.26* I like how the game with me create pictures and I don’t know how to draw what a unicorn on paper, but I can only color it❤️🥳🥳😇 ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-06-21, version 1.26* Your game is so much fun ### 5/5 — Ummmmm *2025-06-16, version 1.26* Well, I think that this is a great app because it's so fun and... yeah, :) ### 5/5 — Big fun game review *2024-07-07, version 1.25* Great game nice and fun, the best game to choose when you what some down time you know ### 5/5 — 4ft 9 *2024-02-08, version 1.25* Love the game 5 star ### 5/5 — BEST GAME IN THE HISTORY OF GAMES *2023-12-13, version 1.25* I started the game today and the 2 best things are you take a picture and pixel it and 1 add I said it myself BEST GAME IN THE HISTORY OF GAMES ### 5/5 — LOVE IT *2023-10-17, version 1.24* I love it ### 5/5 — The best 4 stress *2023-09-04, version 1.24* I feel so relaxed ### 5/5 — Can you give the option for all the completed t be hidden from the library? *2023-07-10, version 1.24* I color the pictures in the order they are shown but now I’m to the point where I have to scroll down very far. So if you could make it where all the completed ones are hidden it would be appreciated. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
