If you're specifically looking for photo colorization, this may not meet your needs. The app itself seems fine for its intended purpose, but it wasn't the right fit for what I wanted. ### 3/5 — Is it worth $ *2026-06-10, version 2.1.10* .nothing is really that clear. No instructions-no idea what things cost? Don't know now if worth the $. ### 4/5 — I have no words 😶 *2026-05-20, version 2.1.10* All I will say is that this is amazing and I REALLY recommend this to anyone who is interested in drawing digital artwork. I have one problem… why can’t we just have a blank page. ### 4/5 — Very good but i thing *2025-10-01, version 2.1.8* I love this game but personally i think it would be even better without ads. I absolutely love it. ### 4/5 — Colouring is fun *2025-06-12, version 2.1.8* it’s time to be busy ### 5/5 — From files to smiles 😁 *2025-06-11, version 2.1.8* I came across this app at a perfect time. A busy season of birthdays for those who hold a special place in my heart. For me, gift giving is about intention and joy. Imagine a person that is special to you, imagine the pictures you have of them/with them. Pictures tell many stories! This app brings those precious stories and memories to LIFE! This gift was received with love, joy, and tears. Each coloring book sparked a child like and aliveness to everyone around. This is the gift that keeps on giving. Thanks to Ajay and the team. They have done a great job with any challenges or questions along the way. May we all continue to share the joy 😊 ### 5/5 — Coooooool *2025-05-31, version 2.1.8* I just got this app and it is sick! ### 1/5 — no tryout allowed *2025-04-29, version 2.1.7* no tryout is allowed, they make you buy before you try, and the one rxample they show looks terrible👎🏿👎🏿 ### 5/5 — Update: Figured it out! no longer applies-(Can’t color it) *2025-02-10, version 2.1.7* Update: Received awesome support offer from the developer team to guide me through also!! - no longer applicable (Info said can create color pages from photos and color them.) ### 1/5 — Does nothing you can’t ready do. *2025-02-04, version 2.1.7* This app doesn’t let you do really anything that you can’t already do with your device for free with built in apps. Very low quality resolution of images, ads after every tap of a button. This is clearly an advertisement cash grab app and not really meant to be a functional app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE, HORRIBLE!!! *2026-08-30, version 2.2.5* I was creating a flyer. I was under time pressure, I had it 90% done, and it disappeared. Terrible program. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2026-08-18, version 2.2.5* Thought I could print coloring pages from photos but every time I say okay I get an ad. I’m cancelling ASAP ### 1/5 — WTF *2026-08-03, version 2.2.4* You forced me to buy an export pack to remove the watermarks, but it is not clear how I can remove the watermarks after I paid you 499 for it would you please fix that? ### 1/5 — Cheats *2026-07-18, version 2.2.2* App changed. More ads, inappropriate ads when trying to use the app with a child. Took money for 10 non watermarks and can't seem to use them. ### 1/5 — scam! *2026-07-08, version 2.2.2* i bought exports and it still didn’t let me export without a watermark. ### 1/5 — Wow *2026-05-05, version 2.1.10* Wasted 15 minutes trying to decide which combination of edits I liked the most and that's when it hit me. I can't actually save changes to my work unless I pay for a subscription. Some of the features are pretty cool but if you're going to hold people's art work hostage for ransom (paid subscription) I'm sure I'm not alone when I say "No thanks"! ### 1/5 — Hard to navigate *2026-01-26, version 2.1.8* I paid to transform a photo into a colouring in page and its so difficult to work it out that i couldnt do it - a waste of money ### 1/5 — Too busy *2025-12-25, version 2.1.8* Nearly impossible to color. Way too many lines and business. ### 1/5 — Slow *2025-10-04, version 2.1.8* As f ### 1/5 — ADS ON PAID APP *2025-10-03, version 2.1.8* Such a good app, but why do you have to let it down by putting ADS on an app that I pay a yearly subscription fee on. Ads should be saved for free version NOT PAID. This wastes my time when I am very busy, I have to wait until the advert ends to continue about my business. Disgusting money grab. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love this ,but… *2026-08-23, version 2.2.5* I would buy this in a heartbeat except for one thing….. the price. I am a part time colourist so I cannot justify £7/mth or £49pa for an app that I will only use maybe 2-3times in a month. It’s such a shame because it really is the best app for the job 😢 ### 5/5 — Best app ever *2026-08-18, version 2.2.5* I’ve been using this app for years! It keeps getting better! ### 5/5 — I love this game *2026-08-13, version 2.2.5* I was having trouble coloring outside the black lines. Please fix it please. Thanks. ### 5/5 — Love *2026-07-06, version 2.2.2* Best thing ever ### 5/5 — Have This App for years and loved it, and now… *2026-07-04, version 2.2.2* I have this app for years, but since the recent updates, I been having a problem saving my artwork. Still had the same subscription for $1.99. I purchased an Export Pack to remove the Watermark, but it was still there. I tried the purchase for a single one, same thing. I reach out for the support team, but got no response. ### 5/5 — Four stars! *2026-03-31, version 2.1.10* Colorscape is amazing! the only thing is you don’t get a lot of free things before you have to purchase more ### 5/5 — FREE ( completely) 5/5 *2025-12-08, version 2.1.8* Do you like free, fun, and partial ads? Then you’ll love this coloring app. It allows you to use your very own photos and drawings and color them. You can even edit the lines before coloring. I love this app and it is everything I was looking for. An ad almost never pops up while coloring in my experience. Instead it waits until you have saved your colored drawing. The only thing you have to pay rightfully so is the custom made coloring book that can be printed and sent to your home which is completely optional. If I could give a ten for this app I would. Download NOW! ### 5/5 — Mr. *2025-11-11, version 2.1.8* Love it. ### 5/5 — This is the best app if you can’t draw *2025-09-08, version 2.1.8* I have students use it and it works so well. It gives a beautifully sketched version of the pic., ### 5/5 — Versatile colouring app *2025-07-17, version 2.1.8* Great app - I’ve used it to create outlines and then pdfs. Also used the AI feature to make images that we then use the app to make outlines --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
