色は3色しか混ぜられませんが使えます

無料で使える機能的には他の混色アプリより遥かに使いやすいです。

他レビューにある機能詐欺の部分とはどんなところなのか不明ですが、今のところ画像から選択した色を使う機能に関してはバッチリです。

Broken

The last app update was 4 years ago. With current IOS, some critical app functionality isn’t working adequately. Used to be a great app. But currently broken.

Realism Varies

This app is almost perfect but has one major flaw. When I was testing the color mixing features for accuracy, I noticed that every time I mixed yellow with blue, I would get a gray shade or a very muted grayish-green. This should be how digital color mixing works, but this app claims to simulate real pigment mixing, and for the most part it does, but it never works with yellow and blue. If there is something that I am doing wrong, please inform me of what to do, because this is the best free color mixing app I have found by far.
