## What is Gradients Maker Design Tool HD?

Finding the perfect colors for your gradients is hard, that's why I built Gradient - Background Design. 

Hi, I'm Ed! A solo developer & designer based in Barcelona, Spain. As part of my work as a designer, I've always found it tricky to come up with the best possible colors to make beautiful gradients. 

I figured that iterating fast is the key to finding matching colors, so Gradient Background Design lets you do just that. You will find two color picker inside the app and all you need to do to create a gradient is to use your finger and move them around to update the color selected by each color picker.

The app will respond to your tiniest movement to let you accurately select the color you need and you will see the output in real time. Pretty cool isn't it? 

Once you have a gradient that looks nice, just lift your fingers and hit the save button to add this gradient to your gallery. 

The app also allows you to: 
- Generate gradient by selecting colors using smart swipe gestures 
- Extract colors from images to generate beautiful gradients 
- Copy Hex codes to your clipboard so you can reuse them anywhere else 
- Update each color using RGB value 
- Update the direction of the gradient (TopLeftBottomRight, TopLeft, BottomRightTopLeft ...) 
- Preview your creation in full screen and export your gradient directly to your Instagram Stories
- Save gradients to your own gallery for later use.
- Export your gradients with or without legend (direction & hex codes can be added to the export). 
- Share gradients with your friend, colleague, designer or to yourself via Airdrop. 
- Explore a collection of thousands of gradients created by tons of users across the globe

I'm always interested to hear about the people who use the apps I built so feel free to reach out with suggestions, feedbacks, bug discoveries and rants (it's ok, it happens).

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2023-11-23*

terrible

### 5/5 — Great App

*2023-01-31*

Just what I needed!

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2023-01-05*

I can’t seem to get past the subscription screen

### 1/5 — COST MONEY FOR A WALLPAPER

*2021-06-29*

Why does it cost money for some thing of a wallpaper

### 1/5 — Don’t bother

*2020-08-26, version 1.3.6*

You have to pay a ridiculous amount for a gradient background. Free versions out there that do exactly the same thing.

### 1/5 — No.

*2020-07-31*

The app seems awesome, but it either needs to be free or one time payment. Pay monthly / yearly is ridiculous for such a simple application. Ads are obnoxious, throws me around when I’m trying to just test the app out to see if I even want to give any money.

EDIT: Joke of an app, you can’t even export a gradient on the free version and you have to pay monthly or yearly. Lol No thanks. Do not download.

### 1/5 — HORRIBLE APP!!!!l

*2020-06-17*

This is a horrible app!!! When you try entering hex codes to create a gradient you get an error that only certain digits and letters are aloud in hex code which is absolute CRAP!!!! I’ve worked with numerous hex codes most of which have zero in them which this app will not let you use

**Developer response:** Hey there, Ed here, the developer. I’d love to hear more about the issue you faced. I’d probably be able to fix that for you. Would you mind sending me some details via the app’s contact form available in the About tab? 

Thanks in advance, Ed

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-05-01*

It doesn’t let you even have more than tree colors. You shouldn’t have to pay to get a watermark removed, it also shouldn’t be in the whole background.

### 5/5 — Super

*2020-04-17*

Du bon boulot 👍🏼

**Developer response:** 🙏🏻

### 1/5 — I’m not paying

*2020-03-28*

You have to pay to even have the gradient direction switch. I could make a better gradient in the notepad app
