### 1/5 — Does not work!!!

*2021-06-16*

When I drop a color it melts down to the bottom of the page and I can’t get it to stop. I see the pictures that show the colors stays in place, don’t know if I changed a setting, but options are limited and I don’t see any way to fix it.

### 1/5 — Çok kötü

*2020-09-14, version 1.03*

Ebru sanatı ile hiç ilgisi olmayan garip bir uygulama . Hiç birşey yapamıyorsunuz. 👎

### 2/5 — Something’s wrong

*2020-03-14*

Any time I try to draw with one of the colors, I get a bright pink color that shadows and then overlaps the color I’m using as I’m coloring, that pretty much ruins any of my pictures. Do you know how to change this and get the pink to go away?

### 2/5 — Ebru ile ilgili değil

*2019-09-21, version 1.03*

Gerçek ebru yapmakla alakası yok. Emeğe saygı ama allahını seven gerçeğini yapsın

### 5/5 — Stress relieving

*2018-09-23*

This game is heaven if ur stressed

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2018-05-10*

Sure glad I found this app...what FUN!

### 4/5 — Nice start

*2017-06-04*

This could be really cool. Needs more colors. Note it requires some pressure on screen to paint, and the drop expands until you lift your finger.

### 1/5 — OLAMAZ!

*2016-01-23, version 1.03*

İkidebir ebru yapmadan oyundan atıyo lütfen yardımcı olun

### 4/5 — Great Start!

*2013-11-19*

Fun app!  It would be even better with the ability to add photos as a background and more paint color choices. Erase feature would be handy too.

### 5/5 — 😀

*2013-11-12, version 1.0*

Güzel
