No more updates and no landscape mode

In mid 2023 the app hasn’t received updates for 2 years.
Unfortunately, there is no landscape mode which would make it user friendly on devices such as iPad, at least for me.

Rubbish - don’t bother.

No functionality. No Color choice. Only ads.

You only can work for about a minute then an ad pops up!

This app would be decent if the pop ups didn't appear so often and they stay on scree way too long before you can get back to the project.

More ad than app

3 seconds in - before I had even opened an image - I got an advert that makes me wait another 30 seconds. I know they are necessary on free apps, but before I've used the app doesn't help anyone.

FAQ

What does the Color Shine app do?

This app allows you to transform your photos by converting them to grayscale while leaving specific areas in their original color. This creates a "color shine" effect that draws the viewer's attention to the colored parts of the image.

How do I use the color shine effect?

You can easily create the effect by using your finger to paint over the parts of the image you want to remain colored. The app also provides tools for zooming in for detailed work and an erase mode to remove colors if needed.

Is this app free to use?

Yes, the app is free to use. It is supported by advertisements, which are displayed within the application.

What kind of photos can I use with this app?

You can use any type of photo. The app is designed to work with pictures from your camera or your existing photo album, allowing you to color shine anything from people and pets to landscapes and everyday objects.

Can I share my creations?

Absolutely. Once you've created your color shine image, you can easily share it directly on social media platforms like Facebook and Twitter, send it via email, or save it to your device's photo album.
