Ads in pro version. *2021-01-13* This is another disappointing app by this developer. It’s unbelievable that there are ads in a pro version. Its functionality is very limited. ### 1/5 — Leaves a lot to be desired *2019-03-17, version 1.3.4* I don’t recommended thus app. Does not allow for corrections. Can’t move brush around to avoid colorizing areas you don’t wish to colorize. Can’t erase errors. ### 1/5 — arnaque totale *2016-05-10, version 1.3* a jeter et signaler impossible de peindre ### 2/5 — Noch nicht ausgereift *2015-12-29* Hat Potential, aber zu wenig Möglichkeiten, keine Löschmöglichkeit (radieren). Zuckt. ### 1/5 — Arnaque *2015-04-25, version 1.3* Même version que l apps gratuite, on p pas mettre touchent couleur....arnaque.... ### 1/5 — Colour shine pro *2015-03-28, version 1.3* Do not purchase this, there is no difference to the FREE colour shine, feeling mugged off !! 😡 ### 1/5 — Nonfunctional Ap *2015-02-24, version 1.3* Another waste of money. This should be criminal. The Ap does not function. Correct the AP and I will update my review. ### 1/5 — Crashing *2014-04-09, version 1.2* The new version crashes on startup ### 1/5 — Why? *2014-01-15* Why can't I use the effects on my own photo? I just can't find how to. It happens on all your apps. Please tell me how or fix it. ### 1/5 — Inutil *2014-01-14, version 1.1.7* Simplesmente que faz oq outros apps fazem. Seria bom que suas fotos ficassem tao boas qnto as que mostra ai. Se tu tiver pegando a temporada gratuita, nao baixa e se tu for comprar não faz isso, vai jogar teu dinheiro fora. O photostudio é um app gratis e tem essa função, so baixei pq achei que funcionava de outra maneira e fosse mais eficaz e tava de graça tmbm. ## Frequently asked questions about Color Shine Pro ### What does Color Shine Pro do?
