### 1/5 — Portrait mode!

*2026-07-24, version 3.3*

Can you please put back the ability to use portrait orientation.

### 3/5 — why is

*2026-07-17, version 3.3*

app name when i view on homescreen is farbnamen

### 1/5 — Не понравилось.

*2026-07-12*

Не корректно определяет цвета. Пробовала определить по загруженным фото, через камеру. И дело точно не в цветопередаче телефона. Загружала картинки с инета с явным светло зеленым- упрямо определял то как серебристо серый, то как бежевый, то написал такое название, которого вообще не существует (по данным поисковика). Свою функцию не выполняет, еще и на этом фоне постоянно предлагает купить подписку 🤯

### 2/5 — Portrait and lease!

*2026-07-03, version 3.3*

Can you please put back the ability to use portrait orientation.

### 1/5 — Wrong color family

*2026-03-22, version 3.3*

Tried different photos and color family is wrong

### 1/5 — Ridiculous advertisement of premium

*2026-01-15, version 3.3*

The app will literally suggest that I buy the premium version every two minutes while I'm using it that is extremely annoying. Obviously if I wanted to purchase it, I would've purchased it the first second third or maybe even the fourth time it prompted me too. This needs to stop. I don't wanna be prompted to buy a premium version every two minutes.

### 1/5 — Annoying

*2025-12-22, version 3.3*

I’m a pony player and I wanted to try and get these colours for my OC. Unfortunately when I would colour pick the colours of my pony I would try and click on the arrow and the arrow would do absolutely nothing as if the button wasn’t working. I have no idea why it was doing this and it’s really annoying so fix it.

### 2/5 — Got it wrong 90% of the time.

*2025-12-11, version 3.3*

Color Analyzer

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-12-10, version 3.3*

Beige color the app says is blue?

### 5/5 — Great app!!

*2025-11-24, version 3.3*

I use this so much to find the colors of things. I play games with my kids at Disney it is so fun!
