Didn’t work :( I really want them to update this app

I would LOVE to be able to use this app functionally, my friend has a version on their switch and it works perfectly fine but when I buy this one? Just disappointment for me to not even be able to use it. I’m so upset and frustrated about this, why does the Lite version have better reviews?…

かなり不具合が多く、NintendoSwitch版を購入されている方はわざわざ買う必要は無い。

こちらのアプリはサポートを終了してしまっているみたいなので不具合がかなり多いです(保存やギャラリーに入るとアプリが落ちてしまう等)
機能は3DS版と同じものなのでレイヤーは上限5枚、バケツ等の機能はありません。

NintendoSwitch版と同じ機能のものがリリースされるまで待ちましょう。(需要によっては考えるみたいなので…)

ios版もアプデしてほしい

3dsがサ終したから購入しましたが少なくともios版はおすすめできないです

良かった点
・3dsの時と操作がほぼ同じ(ボタンがあった分ショートカットキーみたいな役割をしていたものがなくなって不便に感じる部分はある)

悪い点
・プレイバック再生がiosで描いた人の絵しか見れない、アプデがないからSwitch版の人の見れないしプレバがちゃんと機能していないから描いてもらった作品を自分のギャラリーに保存できない
・英語しか対応していないせいか日本語が全部文字化けしている、アルファベットや数字は見える(web版見れば解決するけど不便)
・とにかくすぐ落ちる、これで描いたもののデータ消えたことあるのでこまめにセーブするのをおすすめします
・(別にそこまでだけど)音がない、なんだかんだあのSE好きだったから無音なことに寂しい気持ちはある
・詳しく把握できてないけどSwitch版にはある便利機能がiOS版にはない(選択したものの移動、縮小、バケツ塗り等)
・Switch版では他人の絵を保存して上から絵を描いて合作や塗り絵みたいなものができるけど、iOS版では未だにできない

お絵描きソフトとしてどうなのって感じではあるけどSwitch版よりも金額かかってないからお絵描きに関する便利機能は置いといて、少なくともプレバ機能と言語対応をしてくれたらまた評価変わるなと自分的には思いました

便利面で考えたらSwitch版の方が圧倒的に良いと思います懐かしさだけで買うものではなかったな、と失敗です

不具合が多い

すぐフリーズしたり、保存する時に落ちたりします。3DSから愛着がありこのアプリを使っていますがそこだけが残念です。

Fraudulent

Phone is up to date, but it crashes every time I try to open it. It was last updated 9 years ago. I spent $5 on a product that does not work. I am considering suing.

I remember when I first used this app

I hope you will release a new ios version one day. I love colors 🩷❤️🧡💛💚🩵💙💜

bro pls

COLORS DEVS. pls. its been 9 years and ur mobile app is EXCRUCIATING TO USE. the one on the switch is perfect but im 2 broke for that :3 LOCK IN PLS I LOVE YOU ❤️

Crashes/Se desmama

La app la conozco y digo, de no funcionar utilizo la app del 3Ds, es lo de menos. Pero uno espera que si la app está en el App Store, funcione.

スマホでも「ColorsLive」が出たいと思います

NS版、PC版だけではなく、スマホ、タブレットにも「ColorsLive」を移植すると思いますが。

Woah. Amazing.

So, I started on the 3DS with Colours! 3d. But then, Nintendo shut down the servers for 3ds, so I moved to Colours! L!ve on Switch. I saw a bunch of amazing drawings, but then, I discovered you can draw on iPhone. My name is @Craig-- and my alternate account is @-CraigsDoodles- . This game is amazing!

Needs new update

It doesn't have as many features and brushes as apps such has ibis paint,it needs those features like those apps like new brushes,shape and paint bucket,and more,alothough I think it's functinal I needs new features

Just a few suggestions

Needs more gesture shortcuts like two and/or more finger tap/double-tap/swipe ect. and the ability to assign functions to each shortcut like that of the console versions. Would be great if the menu was updated to be similar to the one on switch. Something that could be a great feature for mobile users that would set it apart from console versions is a security measure, like a pin upon opening, which could be ideal for NSFW artists who have children that use their devices. I’d also love to see a Night Mode that could possibly sync with iOs. Please consider these suggestions. Thank you kindly!

Going to the Gallery crashes the app

I wanted to check out the gallery to see what others have made, but that only crashes the app and sends me back to the Home screen. This might be worth $7 if you can fix that crash.

Do the developers even care anymore?

You haven’t updated In 3 years. 3, this caused your community to die off, it’s like you do not care about the people who bought this app anymore! You won’t even fix glitches, like the glitch where you use black and it shows up white, ridiculous! Even worse, I crash time to time, luckily it hasn’t happened while I draw, but it’s horrible that you don’t give one care about the people who do this. I know you have a life, and you’re doing your own thing, but PLEASE fix some things, the communities dead...

PLEASE UPDATE FOR IPAD PRO

Would love to start using colors again. Could use some obvious updates so that it can take advantage of the iPad Pro and the Apple Pencil.

Issues

I had this on every platform and now I’m having issues they wont help they are rude !

You can’t transfer your paintings.

I upgraded to the full version of Colors from Colors lite, but this just gave me another app. I would like a way to transfer my paintings on the lite version to the full version please! I’m so sad I didn’t get to transfer my painting and even worse, the lite version won’t even let me save the painting to Photos...

Amazing App, Despite the Glitches

This app is purely amazing; before I had my iPad, I simply adored the Colors!3d on the Nintendo 3DSXL, and used it daily. When I first found out that Colors! was also available on my iPad, I was thrilled and instantly purchased it, because I already knew how amazing this application was from my experiences with the 3DS version.

If you happen to have a 3DS, and are trying to decide which platform to get it on, I'm certain you'll be wondering which version is superior; honestly, there are pros and cons with both versions. The 3DS version is simple to use and has all of the same features that the iPad version does, along with the added bonus of being able to create an incredible 3D effect for viewing and an autosave feature; however, the downfalls to that version lie mostly in the difficulty of doing much with your paintings, outside of uploading to the Colors! Live gallery, as while you can save them to the Camera application in higher resolution than the 3DS can display, it is very hard to enjoy your images in the Camera to their full viewing potential or to upload onto the Internet, especially if your Camera application is already very full, since the Camera will take longer to load the more pictures you have on it.
The iPad version makes this process much simpler and seems to allow for easy access and viewing of the paintings you save to your Photo Gallery, along with the Colors! Live gallery being an option for uploading, of course. The main cons to the iPad version would be that it, obviously, does not have a 3D feature that the 3DS version does, nor the ability to autosave (you'll have to do that manually, and, I would suggest, frequently), and also possesses a glitch which sometimes makes all pure black colored things turn to white in playback and in exporting the painting to the Photo Gallery; however, the glitch can be managed easily by simply user an ever-so-slightly lighter shade of gray in place of the darkest black available.

An issues that both versions possess is the unfortunate occasional glitch which can cause marks to appear in playback and exporting that did not exist, as well as the disappearance of parts the same way. The only solution to preventing this on both version is to frequently save, check playback, and then, if safe, make a copy to continue on for a while. If at your next point you find that there are no issues, you can delete the prior file you copied from, copy your current one, and continue to repeat the process until you're through. If you find that your current copy has the glitch occur, you can simply start again by copying your previous file and going from there. It may sound complicated, but is actually a very quick and simple method that is well worth the effort given the amazing capabilities of this app. The iPad version also sometimes crashes after you save or when you select a file, but it will never do so while you're painting or attempting to save, so no issue will be encountered there.

The app possesses three brushes brushes -- charcoal, what I'd like to call airbrush, and normal -- an eraser, the ability to adjust transparency and brush size, a large color wheel, an eyedropper tool for selecting colors from your painting, the ability to add, merge, move, and delete layers, change angle of your painting from left, right, up, or down, zoom, clear the canvas, and hide layers from view. You can also import a photo from your Photo Gallery to use as background or overlay, although you cannot use the photo when uploading to the Colors! Live gallery.

You can trust me when I say that this app is well worth the occasional glitch, given that I already payed $7.99 for the application on the 3DS and was so happy with it that I payed another $4.99 to buy the iPad version, as well.

In short, despite its glitches, this app is easy to use, amazing and well worth the price. You won't regret the purchase.

Great! If you know what you're doing.

I've had this app for the longest time. It's great. That is, if you know what you're doing.

Before, I had the 3DS version (I still do), and I use that whenever I can't draw on paper and such. This app is no different. Now it's possible to draw on this app if you have experience with using a touch screen pen for your iPhone/iPad. Not to mention, when you post into the gallery from this version, people would only be able to see it when they go to the website (You might still be able to see the other version made drawings like the 3DS one on there, but still). Also, the controls can be a bit confusing. I've had no problem with it, but others might, so...

In short, I give this a 4 out of 5 stars. It's a great app to use, but it may not be for everyone. So I'd think before buying. I, for one, don't regret my decision getting it.

we l l

I started off with the free version, and loved it so much that I got the paid version. The paid version comes with lots of cooler features that help out so much. It has helped we improve my drawing skills, but lately it has been glitching a lot. I'll open a new drawing and it won't let me draw in the color, showing up white, But this past week, I finally had it. I'd worked 3 hours on a drawing that I was really proud of. I went to watch the speed up drawing of it, and when I went to save it, the whole painting was white. I tried everything, but my drawing was gone. I'm really upset about this, and if you don't fix this soon I'll go find a better app.
