Trash

Sorry but this is trash. Bright cartoonish colors only. Don’t expect to retouch your photos. Your iPhone camera picture adjustment suite would do a better job. Bummed I wasted money on this but at least it was cheap.

Does not paint everything :(

What it does, it does well.
But there are often areas of a picture that it will not paint into, like the Alpha channel is only partially there. It’s either great or half great. Also the color choices are very limited without gradients.

For Children Only!

This is not a professional APP to colorize your photos. I would only recommend this for children. I purchased it from reading the past reviews. I was completely discussed to find out it’s all about the $money! Pass this dog to the trash!

What are the key features of Colorize?

Key features include the ability to choose from a wide spectrum of colors, original color, or gray. It offers pinch-to-zoom for precise editing, undo/redo functionality, adjustable brush size and softness, and fast performance even with high-resolution images.

Is Colorize free to use?

Yes, based on the provided information, the app is free to use. There are no mentions of in-app purchases or advertisements, suggesting a completely free experience.

What kind of photos work best with Colorize?

The app works best with color photos. By design, it preserves the original color strength for realism, so it is not intended for black and white images. Using vibrant, colorful photos will yield the most striking results.

How can I achieve precise edits in Colorize?

You can achieve pixel-level precision by using the pinch-to-zoom gesture to magnify the image. Additionally, the app provides precise control over the brush size and softness, allowing you to carefully apply or remove color exactly where you intend.
