### 5/5 — Awesome app!!!!!

*2024-07-29, version 1.05*

Don’t know why but this app I always have to do and study art works for me! I know there are so many good apps for art purposes, but this app ( Crayon) I always use first and never  delete from my iPhone!!!! This app is so simple and the best.

### 5/5 — すごくいいです！もっと細い線ほしい

*2022-09-10*

画面引っ張って小さく描くともう一つだけ細い線欲しいなぁって思ってしまいます、でもそれ以外は楽しくて完璧なんです

### 2/5 — 개선이 필요하네요

*2022-07-30*

같은 회사어플인 젠브러쉬1보다 인터페이스가 별로인거 같아요

### 4/5 — Good

*2020-09-01, version 1.04*

It saves your pictures

### 1/5 — What smudge stick???

*2019-09-22, version 1.04*

This is the worse $3 I’ve ever spent.
What sort of “ professional artists” are lauding this app?
The smudge doesn’t work at all. 
Given other apps of much higher caliber this app delivers ZERO.
I thought I could drag it into another app and make some interesting adjustments but it’s not worth the effort.
Did you drag this out to see if you could milk some more income out if it?  I look all the time for new art apps and haven’t ever seen this one.
Maybe a 2, 3 or 4 year old would get a kick out if this.....

### 1/5 — マジか

*2019-08-18*

いつになったら
保存出来るんだよ

### 5/5 — 色数を増やして欲しいです

*2018-04-03*

iPad mini2で指で描いています。
描画線はもちろん、ぼかしが自然。
欲しい機能は必要最低限。これが逆に作業がしやすいです。
高機能スケッチアプリでありがちな、豊富な機能に慣れることから始める必要もなくスッと作品づくりに入り込めます。

ただ、色数が24色と少なく感じます。
もう少し欲しいところです。(50色くらい)
ぜひ、色数増色をご検討くださればと思います。

### 5/5 — fun

*2017-10-05*

avec la nouvelleversion 11. de Iphone Apple Crayon ne fonctionne pas

### 5/5 — Here is another

*2017-09-24, version 1.03*

Professional artist asking that you upgrade Crayon Style to compatibility with IOS 11.

This deceptively “simple” app has for years been a favorite in my toolbox.

I would happily pay a reasonable fee for an upgrade.

### 5/5 — PLEASE UPDATE FOR IOS 11

*2017-09-20, version 1.03*

this is by far one of my favorite creative apps. yes, it's quite simple but that's one of the things i love most about it. the colors are vibrant and the blend texture is fantastic. 

(ps i'm a professional artist)

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE UPDATE IT SO ITS COMPATIBLE WITH IOS 11!!!  THANKS!!!
