Two things I would love would be the ability to pause the timer if to have to step away for a quick minute and a category for items I kept for myself personally not just kept in general. But seriously the timer is a game changer, thank you! ### 4/5 — Enjoyable *2026-05-25, version 1.5.17* Honestly I like the app, I wish there were options to connect with my friends or family that have the app as well so we could connect on our paintings we have, are doing, or want. I’d also like to be able to create groups for my paintings, or folders I guess. It is very time consuming to add the colors to every listing but I understand there’s not exactly a way to do it any other way, so it is what it is. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2026-03-23, version 1.5.17* This really helps me organized. I can keep track of what I have purchased, what I have finished, etc. love it! Thanks to the developers!!!💕 ### 5/5 — Love This App! *2026-03-05, version 1.5.17* The new updates are fantastic! Can we pretty please get a field for special drills? Just a field where we can input the total number of special drills. Thank you for considering! ### 5/5 — Love *2026-02-24, version 1.5.16* I love this app!!! Perfect way to organize and offers so much. ### 5/5 — I Love The New Update! *2026-02-11, version 1.5.13* I've been using this app for a while now. It has worked out well for tracking my diamond painting hobby. Recently the app updated, and a whole bunch of new features were added. I LOVE this new update. Everything is more user friendly with an appealing layout. I also love the new timer than I can press on and off to track my time for each project. Tracking my time is 100x easier and more accurate now. I appreciate all the time and effort the devs put into this update! ### 5/5 — A must to keep track of your artwork. *2026-02-10, version 1.5.13* I used this for my diamond painting but now I use it for my PBN’s. Love the new update, the timer is a great addition. ### 4/5 — This is a fabulous app *2026-02-09, version 1.5.13* I just started using but am truly happy with it. It is like Goodreads for diamond art. I do order quite a bit and this will keep me organized!! I will also take a pic of the key for each picture and attach to each file so I can go back if a bead ever falls out. ### 5/5 — quantity of diamonds feature *2026-02-07, version 1.5.13* this will be the perfect app if it has a “total amount if diamonds” feature 🙏 ### 5/5 — Perfect “Timing” *2026-01-30, version 1.5.13* I am in love with the timing feature! It was the worst part of an otherwise great app. Thank you for the changes!!!!! ### 5/5 — Used to love it 😕 *2026-01-29, version 1.5.13* The latest update ruined a perfectly good way to keep track of my diamond art stash. Liked the old version soooo much better. ### 5/5 — Love This App! *2026-01-28, version 1.5.13* Love the organization this brings to my chaotic collection. App was recently updated with great changes but there’s still not a dedicated field for the artist’s name. Maybe next update developers? Please? Thanks! ### 5/5 — Thank you for updating the time tracking! *2026-01-28, version 1.5.13* Great app. I depend on this app for all of my diamond paintings and don't know what i'd do without it. It keeps everything organized. Love it. ### 5/5 — A must to keep track of your art *2026-01-26, version 1.5.11* I used this for my diamond painting but now I use it for my PBN’s. ### 3/5 — Less functional now. *2026-01-26, version 1.5.11* I used to be able to use coupons and discounts under “shipping with a negative number so I know how much the cost was retail. Now it wants me to paste the amount? From where. I asked years ago if he could add drills total, so I could sort by that. He said it was too difficult. Why bother giving us this so- called “update”? It does nothing but make it more difficult to use. ### 5/5 — Great improvements! *2026-01-25, version 1.5.11* Really appreciate the overhaul of the UI, making it so much easier to sort and do things like add time to projects. This has always been my go-to for organizing my diamond painting collection and now not needing to filter to find my started kits is amazing. ### 3/5 — Time Track *2026-01-19, version 1.5.11* Please switch back how the time is tracked. I love all the other updates but the new time tracking portion is just horrible! ### 3/5 — Functionality issues following update *2026-01-16, version 1.5.9* Appreciate the addition of alt currencies & the default keypad for number entry. Also looks good, but there are some irritating issues with functionality (tested mainly on iPad) - Need to scroll to the top of the page to see the ‘back’ arrow to return to the projects screen. - It then sends you back to the top of the list, not to the entry you just closed - Timeline doesn’t display the year - You now have to expand multiple sections to add a new project Also missed the opportunity to add Artist Name which is a key piece of info for a lot of diamond painters Hoping some of these can be tweaked 🙂 ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Nicht auf deutsch umstellbar ist mies *2024-01-30* Es wäre schön wenn man die auch in deutsch umstellen kann nicht jeder hat nen akademischen Abschluss das man so gut englisch kann ### 1/5 — Never buy *2023-05-28, version 1.5.3* Never buy a diamond painting from this company half the time the diamonds pop. I one time messaged costumer service to get a missing bag of diamonds to be sent they said they would send it but it never came and they fold the painting canvas to ship them when they all should be rolled up. The cataloging projects is great but other then that that’s all this app should be used for. ### 1/5 — Not happy *2021-03-07, version 1.5.1* It said when I got it that it was free but it didn’t so I’m not very happy ### 1/5 — Missing bits!!! *2020-08-29, version 1.4.1* It used to have the dmc colours but now only has diamond dotz and ab drills was useful now not so much...disappointing!!!!!! ### 1/5 — Tried and tried again *2020-03-18, version 1.0.3* I really tried to like this app. Really. Some instruction would’ve been great. But it kept deleting project info I had just entered and I would add it again; then I’d close the app, reopen and there it would be. Twice. Thought I finally fixed it, closed the app and went to start my next project. This time when I opened it what I thought I had fixed was gone again! Back to paper logs for me, at least I can count on those. ### 2/5 — Disappointing *2026-06-26, version 1.5.17* How do you put the date when you start and finish a project i go to my page for the one im doing it wont give me the options i tried everything ? I miss the old version much was easier .i dont like the timer im not using it . ### 2/5 — I miss the old version *2026-01-29, version 1.5.13* I used to LOVE this app, but the latest update is not great, in my opinion. I miss the simplicity of the previous version. The graphics in this new update are too “big”, and aren’t great for viewing on small devices like iPhones, which is what I predominantly use. I do wish they would give us the option to choose which fields we’d like to see and use, for example, the time tracking log and the “Timeline” section. These are features I will never use, and it would be great if I could remove them from my view. Or, another option could be to allow us to move the sections around to where we’d like them, so that anything we don’t use could be moved to the bottom of the screen. I’m all for a good refreshed look and update, but this one just doesn’t work well in my opinion. I will still use it, but for me, the experience just won’t be as good or pleasurable as it used to be. ### 2/5 — Not working *2024-11-17, version 1.5.3* I was trying to do a custom diamond art and it not working it saying error please fix it ### 2/5 — Needs pen cataloging *2024-08-28, version 1.5.3* Add that and will give 5 stars ### 2/5 — AliExpress *2021-05-09, version 1.5.1* You can buy the same diamond paintings from AliExpress you can buy a 40x50 painting for nine dollars ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Perfekter Überblick der Projekte *2026-07-19* Die App ist intuitiv und leicht zu bedienen. In deutscher Sprache verfügbar. ☺️ Sie enthält fast alle nützliche Informationen, die zu einem Bild festgehalten werden sollen. Sogar ein Zeittracking ist dabei. Wünschenswert wäre nur noch die Unterscheidung der Steinchenart, also ob es Acryl- oder Harzsteine sind. ### 5/5 — Great app! *2026-06-14, version 1.5.17* I love this app! So helpful to keep an inventory of stash. I like the changes in recent update, such as artist name. One suggestion for future update, could you add a category field that we could use to filter, like Christmas, Halloween, Cats, etc? Thanks for this great app. I’ve been using for 3-4 years. Absolutely recommend to any diamond painter. I even have added my small stash of cross stitch kits. ### 5/5 — I don’t normally rate… *2026-06-08, version 1.5.17* This is a manual logbook, and it’s free! What else could you want? Only issue is no videos can be submitted on your kit. But everything else is nice to have digitally. It took me three whole days for 407 kits to be logged as either recieved, not recieved and completed. That I reccomend getting this app before you get like me! Haha. ### 5/5 — Exactly What I Wanted! *2026-05-26, version 1.5.17* I was going to keep a physcial journal of my diamond paintings until someone mentioned this app. It’s great! Love the timer feature so much and love that I can add as many as I want and can keep track of all my kits. I think it’d be really cool if there was somewhere I could keep track of my custom accessories, but other than that love this app! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2026-05-19, version 1.5.17* I love this app. I tend to over shop and this helps me know what I have already bought and ready to go. In addition, I love the timer. The only thing I would like is the ability to duplicate a painting and correlating info if I do have doubles. ### 5/5 — Great app for tracking your diamond paintings *2026-05-14, version 1.5.17* I love this app dearly the only thing it is missing is some abs and could you guys possibly add other special drills like fairy dust and metallics etc? Thanks! ### 5/5 — Diamond painting! *2026-05-08, version 1.5.17* I’ve only had this app for a few months now,but so far i love it! ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2026-04-24, version 1.5.17* This app helps keep my diamond paintings in order. Both finished and those I haven’t even started. It lets me time myself, keep track of the colors, know which I’ve gifted to people, how much I paid for them, when I bought them, when I started one, when I finished one. This app does everything except put the drills on the canvas. I love it!! ### 5/5 — Filter by size? *2026-04-12, version 1.5.17* I love this app! It is so helpful to keep my projects organized. I can use the app on my phone or my iPad. It would be even better if I could organize my projects by size. Thanks for your hard work and making this great app! ❣️ ### 5/5 — Great for organizing!! *2026-04-08, version 1.5.17* This App has helped me in so many ways. I love this. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
