### 4/5 — Exciting, engaging, and relaxing

*2026-07-25, version 4.9.11*

Great and relaxing puzzles that have no time limit and fun, easy to earn hints. Ads, as expected, but overall pretty calming and engaging with thousands of different patterns and themes. Daily new puzzles, fun canvas and hidden color by numbers create more joy than ever!

### 5/5 — Colorful

*2026-07-25, version 4.9.11*

I love the patterns the colors are vibrant plus millions of pictures to color I love it had different categories to choose from the possibilities are endless it depends on my mood for the day 👍🏽

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-07-02, version 4.9.10*

The colors are bright smooth play unique pictures..  An awesome coloring game for adults as pictures are detailed.

### 5/5 — Sad Glitch

*2026-06-26, version 4.9.9*

I have been obsessed with this app for months now. It is so great for when you have creativity/decision fatigue but still want to make something beautiful. In the past few days however, there is a glitch where it isn’t showing the remaining colors for the photos, so you can’t finish them. I cleared the cache, checked for updates, and nothing is working. I really hope it’s fixed soon though, & I will update to 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Issues

*2026-06-25, version 4.9.9*

I have three pictures that have not allowed me to finish. There are no more colors or numbers left, but it still unfinished. I’ve shut down, swiped away, but can’t get it to upload  with the colors. One of the pictures is only at 13%.

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2026-06-22, version 4.9.9*

Love this color by number! But the pictures are not numbered and won’t let me color certain sections of the pictures.  Please fix this!  I use this app every single day!!  This started happening 3 or 4 days ago and continues to happen with the new photos to color every day.

### 1/5 — Love this

*2026-05-28, version 4.9.9*

Ever since you have stopped putting the numbers on ALL the spaces to be colored, I don’t enjoy this anymore.

### 5/5 — INK

*2026-05-15, version 4.9.8*

This is the best color by numbers. With a bonus of no adds. This is my favorite so download  so you can enjoy it as much as I do

### 5/5 — Love this app

*2026-04-13, version 4.9.8*

I love this app. I stay home most of the time so this fills my days. I love the brilliant colors. Give it a try you will love it.

### 5/5 — Not as much fun

*2026-04-09, version 4.9.8*

I liked it better when finished designs were hidden not still showing as unfinished. I’m not sure I’ll continue.
