It’s so relaxing. My only complaint is that only 3 color schemes are unlocked. I’ve been playing for years and I haven’t unlocked any new ones ### 3/5 — Hi *2026-03-20, version 1.6* Don’t make people pay for other colors ### 3/5 — Uhm *2025-12-15, version 1.6* Why do I have to pay for more stuff? It’s stressing tbh ### 2/5 — Not Very God *2025-09-28, version 1.5* you have to pay for almost everything + there's very little things to choose from . although it's very relaxing , it's a meh for me ### 4/5 — i like it *2025-08-01, version 1.5* it’s really relaxing, my only complaint is that you seriously only have 3 different colour options unless you pay up, and it’s constantly pushing for you to do that, which is mildly irritating at first, but then becomes more bothersome. is a shame considering that everything else in the game is really nice ### 5/5 — I LOVE ITTTTT *2025-07-30, version 1.5* This is such a relaxing game it almost made me fall asleep 10/10 for me if your mad sad just play color sort :) ### 5/5 — i love this game! *2025-07-09, version 1.5* i do find it very therapeutic, not only that but it dosent force you to buy anything or have any pop ups, simple and uninterrupted colour sorting. ### 2/5 — Paying?? *2025-06-23, version 1.5* All of a sudden we need to pay for different colors?? And 4.99 at that. I used to love this game I introduced it to so many people. Never again ### 3/5 — Free *2025-06-17, version 1.5* I think it should be fully free ### 5/5 — Perfect app *2025-05-28, version 1.4* Simple, enjoyable, just the right amount of difficult. Plus you get to enjoy looking at beautiful colors. I love this so much ### 5/5 — Really fun and relaxing *2025-05-15, version 1.4* I really like it, it’s very fun ### 5/5 — i love it! *2025-05-12, version 1.4* This app is super calming but maybe there should be levels so it would make the more entertaining! ### 4/5 — Love it *2025-05-12, version 1.4* But could you add more rows of color? It’s far too quick and easy, at least for me ### 5/5 — So good!!! *2025-03-18, version 1.3.7* I was playing this for hours great relief for my ADHD the only thing I was upset obout there were no levels it works without WiFi and no annoying adds ### 5/5 — My favorite app *2025-02-03, version 1.3.7* Such a nice app, helpful for when i need something to do but don’t want ads or to worry about “winning”. Highly recommend! ### 5/5 — Works great! *2025-01-19, version 1.3.7* This app is clean and doesn’t have a lot of ads or glitches. It is not clunky and operates smoothly. The app isn’t addictive but does enough to hold my attention for about 6-7 minutes. The colors are relaxing to look at and really do help my mental health. I do wish the categories of the names more closely matched what the color pack includes. And the app could include more free color categories please! Overall, I like app and I would recommend to any one. ### 5/5 — Thank god for this app *2025-01-16, version 1.3.7* Thank god for this app - something soothing that isn’t game based and doesn’t make you pay a horrific price to enjoy it. Even the game based color games I liked that weren’t filled with horrific ads quickly became too hard for me and thus I couldn’t enjoy them anymore. I am thrilled that this app purposely does not include gamification and I can play forever. I’m also grateful you don’t have to pay to remove ad but simply add color packs. This truly is a soothing, calming, ETHICAL app. ### 5/5 — Yay *2024-12-07, version 1.3.7* Fun game ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No *2025-10-20, version 1.6* Am I enjoying the app? HOW WOULD I KNOW? I’VE PLAYED IT ONCE. If you need to know how I feel after the first and every other time I play, then here’s how I feel. DELETE. I’ve had it with constant interruptions, ads and feedback. Do you not understand that people like a color sort game because it helps the brain relax? How relaxing are constant interruptions? No, I am not enjoying the game. There is no game. There is only your constant needs and wants and I am not interested. I’d HAPPILY pay for your game if you’d just let me relax first. ### 1/5 — No chance to try before paying *2025-08-11, version 1.5* Before paying if be helpful to try at least once ### 1/5 — Crashed *2024-08-23, version 1.3.7* It looked like a great game/app but when I tried to open it, it crashed ### 1/5 — Constantly nags you *2024-06-11, version 1.3.7* Any time I switch apps, or open control centre, or open my notifications, this app pops up a screen asking me to pay £5. I’ve recorded this behaviour so the developer can’t deny it, but I’m uninstalling the app now. Being constantly pestered for money is not relaxing. ### 1/5 — Repetitive and a rip off! *2024-06-03, version 1.3.7* Do not be fooled by category names for different sets of colors. After paying $4.99 to unlock all categories, the combinations of colors are almost the same, over and over. BORING! Of the millions of colors possible, it is pure programmer laziness and a scam to have this limited palette from which to play. ### 1/5 — Only option to unlock more palettes is to pay$ *2024-04-10, version 1.3* Title says it all. I thought perhaps the more I played the more options would unlock (like normal sorting games do) but this one has the top 3 or 4 palettes and the rest are available to purchase-ONLY. The concept is good, but it’s insanely limiting. ### 1/5 — Needs a random option *2024-01-16, version 1.3* Needs an option to choose a random color palette. ### 1/5 — RIP OFF *2023-04-26, version 1.2* Let me start off with saying 1. It’s not even soothing 2. I’ve been playing constantly for three months trying to like it more(it didn’t work) and still can’t unlock the next level!! 3. Too quiet( needs peaceful music) 4. I’m colorblind so I can’t sort them as well so make them more bold colors plz But I do like that there are different sized blocks. Thanks for reading ### 1/5 — Doesn’t work *2023-04-08, version 1.2* There looks to be 4 free levels but can’t click on. Doesn’t work. Hence the one star. But potentially looked like it could have been 5 starts. Such a waste. Such a Shame ### 1/5 — Baddddd *2020-02-09, version 1.2* It does nothing I don’t get how to use it ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — wow *2026-08-02, version 1.7* this is genuinely the best app no cap ### 5/5 — Great game *2026-07-06, version 1.7* Very relaxing and calming ### 5/5 — Amazing *2026-07-05, version 1.7* It really is relaxing. I didn’t expect it, but it is. ### 5/5 — amazing *2026-06-09, version 1.7* this is my favorite app of all time. listing to music and playing this with snacks is chefs kiss 👌🏽 keep this up!! also no ads! ### 5/5 — Calming *2026-06-02, version 1.7* Has helped me a lot when I need to distract myself from something, but don’t feel like doing too much playing a normal mobile game. I find it calming. ### 5/5 — Delightful and relaxing *2026-02-06, version 1.6* Well-worth buying the full version to support the creators because this app is wonderful. No ads, no complicated gameplay, but a simple game that helps my brain relax. It really is as advertised, simple and straightforward, no shenanigans. Love this app! ### 5/5 — So calming *2026-01-26, version 1.6* I enjoy this app! I like to movements and it’s gentle ### 5/5 — Absolutely amazing *2026-01-18, version 1.6* I always use the strawberry color scheme and I LOVE it so much. Super fun and entertaining. I fidget with this while listening to podcasts, church, or stories. ### 5/5 — My best MINDFULNESS tool *2025-09-15, version 1.5* This app has been life changing for me. It’s such a simple app but it really helps me with mindfulness and to keep my anxiety down. Lately everything has been feeling overwhelming and too much but I have been able to cope better thanks to this. I really appreciate that there are NO ads in the free version! The creator could easily make money with them but you can tell they care about their users by not putting them in. If there were ads I think I’d be overwhelmed and delete the app as it would take away from the zen. I really want to purchase the lifetime subscription- the only thing holding me back is I wish there was even more customizable options. I wish there were more colour combos, ones that are softer, maybe even create your own. I also wish that you could select if you’d like a large grid or a smaller grid. I do appreciate the ability to choose random and that on premium you do get more themes, however none appeal to me and they all seem so bright. I really love this app and I thank you for making it. It has been such an immense help and I look forward to any updates. ### 5/5 — Great app *2025-09-02, version 1.5* Has really helped me with my anxiety and panic attacks, has a nice task for me to do to ground myself! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
