### 2/5 — Not up to date

*2026-08-12*

Many of the colours referenced in the database are very out of date and are not listed in the manufacturer’s website. This makes this app almost unusable since you can get a good match online only to find that the number is either incorrect or the colour is not available.

### 1/5 — No longer supported?

*2026-04-11*

I think it’s dead, Jim. No updates in eight years. Seems to have never had the ANA colors added.

### 2/5 — Missing a lot of common SKUs

*2025-11-19, version 2.0.4*

Would be practical if they had Vallejo XPress Colors and other mainstream paint companies like Monument Hobbies and Green Stuff World. For the price I paid this is very disappointing

### 2/5 — Nice app BUT

*2025-01-12, version 2.0.4*

I used to be able to pick a colour from a reference pictures from my old Apple phone’s  photo gallery, but now I can’t, with my new Apple phone can someone help me me.

### 4/5 — Très pratique

*2024-03-24, version 2.0.4*

J’adore votre application qui est complet, mais qui serait encore plus pratique avec un ou deux tutoriels!  Bravo

### 1/5 — Is this still being updated?

*2024-02-05*

As above - quite a lot of money to spend if it is not going to be actively updated?

**Developer response:** Yes it will! A lot of changes has occurred in the Apple development environment this past years so we need to rewrite the App from scratch. We are terribly late because Apple old tools are not being maintained anymore (so we can't post old App updates anymore to our deep regret) while the new ones are not stable enough yet for our needs. We finally have started coding the new release but it will take some time. However, charts are being updated regularly and we will post new chart and chart updates soon.

### 4/5 — Пожалуйста добавьте в приложение краски от ARM.PNT и Arma Colors.

*2023-01-14*

Пожалуйста добавьте в приложение краски от ARM.PNT,  Arma Colors и ZIP.

### 4/5 — Will this app ever be updated?

*2022-12-13*

I’ve loved this app since I tried the Lite version years ago. I quickly upgraded to the Full version and used it regularly to find color equivalents across brands or for FS or RLM colors. Alas, while it still seems to function on iPad Mini, it lacks full functionality on iPhone. E.g, it no longer displays color equivalents for a given reference. Also, the paint databases don’t seem to be updated any longer: Mr. Color fluorescents don’t appear on the list, for example.  I miss full functionality as this was my go-to paint matching/mixing app.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your report! The current release should display equivalences as expected. Your issue is probably due to a filter that is applied on the equivalence list. You can contact us at info@id6.ch so that we can help you resolve your issues. 
The paint databases will be updated and new ones will be added by the end of January 2023. We will also post a brand new release of the App (Full rewrite) during the year. Now that Apple new development tools have (at last) reached a correct level of stability and performance (while abandoning maintenance of older tools). This is the reason why we have been a bit caught in the middle. So stay tuned.

### 3/5 — Es fehlen Farben

*2022-09-04, version 2.0.4*

Leider fehlen von verschiedenen Hersteller, wie Hataka (alle Farbserien)und AK-Interactive (Real Color Serie), die Farben.
Auch mehr Sprachen würde ich mir noch wünschen.

### 5/5 — Invaluable tool for painting kits

*2022-04-25*

I use this exclusively for mixing paints - it can match every popular paint manufacturer out there and advise you as to the ratios to get that color right.  Having painted a wide array of jets of various nationalities - it saves me a ton of time and aggravation - a must have.  The developer is also very helpful in case you run into some difficulties.
