### 4/5 — So cool

*2026-07-30, version 4.6.9*

This game is really nice no more words

### 5/5 — So good!

*2026-06-16, version 4.6.9*

Have been using Coolers for more than a year and love it. As an artist it is fabulous for developing color palettes for my artwork.

### 5/5 — Love Different Colors

*2026-05-29, version 4.6.9*

I love making something else like that different colors on my own but it’s just a little more complicated that I want to make it look like a real color of mine.

### 5/5 — Great Color sourcing app.

*2026-05-27, version 4.6.9*

This is a great app, very easy to use, choose and have fun with

### 1/5 — It had potential

*2026-05-20, version 4.6.9*

For a few months it worked pretty well. However, during the past two months I have not been able to access my saved palettes. It just shows the loading wheel, but nothing shows up. 
I wish it would do what it says it should because as of right now it is not worth the paid subscription.

### 3/5 — Problems

*2026-04-14, version 4.6.9*

Typos in text. No price for pro until you click the upgrade button. No instructions.

### 5/5 — Simply the best.

*2026-04-11, version 4.6.9*

I have been looking at so many different tools to try to identify colors that I really like in images. I use it more for that than trying to put combinations together. But it does a beautiful job of that. 
I have to say that this app is by far and away the easiest app to use, of any I have tried…. And I tried quite a few!  Also, so many apps want to charge you to do the simplest thing and this one allows you to check it out for free 🩵

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2026-04-04, version 4.6.9*

This app is actually SO good!! I just got it and I already love it 💖 It has so many cute color palettes and I can see the hex codes too, which is perfect for wallpapers, drawing, and Picsart edits. It’s super fun to use and really easy to find colors that match my style. Definitely recommend if you love colors and making cute aesthetic stuff!! 🌈✨ (you can click on the color snd scroll down to see the name of it def one of my favorite adds to this app !)

### 5/5 — Love this app and website!

*2026-03-31, version 4.6.9*

PLS ADD OHUHU MARKERS CODE I BEG

### 2/5 — Price gouging at its finest

*2026-03-12, version 4.6.9*

This is a great tool, don't get me wrong! I love it so much and do use it fairly often. But this subscription model is absolutely ridiculous and exploitative.

I've used the app for a long time; "pro" features were a one time purchase back then; not super cheap upfront but worth it over time. A subscription is maybe understandable for an indispensable, widely featured, and always evolving app. But this isn't that. It's a color picker, with comparable free options, and nothing has changed except minor interface tweaks and optimization for over 5 years. One well paid dev can clock in for like 5 hours a year and do more than this company has. The free version is basically useless; there are better places to find existing palettes, which is all it offers. I only use the app at all because they still honor the one time purchase I made, but I would strongly recommend against it unless you're one of the few designers who don't mind paying a ransom for basic tools.

If you're a big corporation's design lead, this is great. But it's a terrible use of money for students, hobbyists, nonprofit designers, rural companies, independent businesses, etc etc etc. (there are no discounts or exceptions currently)

I have books with extensive details on color theory, huge pallette collections, and helpful tailored advice; none of which cost more than 2 months of this app.
