Some of the pictures are not loading. I also would like to see an option for long press. I use another app that uses this and it enables me to color where I want without having to locate the corresponding number. The app is fun and relaxing. As a child I used to outline all my coloring with a black crayon. I would like to see more of that. Update. Please fix the problem of pictures not loading. Please tell us how to fix this issue. Having paid for this app I think I might have made a mistake in doing so. Very frustrating not being able to have access to all pictures. Should anyone have a solution please share it with all of us. It is not just the special section that will not load pictures. ### 4/5 — Wedgwoodfan *2026-08-11, version 5.4.14* I am having trouble with the special section. Some of the pictures are not loading.

It’s soothing and calm I really recommend. ### 3/5 — Summer *2026-07-22, version 5.4.14* I’m disappointed you didn’t have Stars and Stripes for 4th of July and summer. I’m not liking the pictures of lately. Can you do better? ### 4/5 — Another review. *2026-07-13, version 5.4.14* Your coloring game is amazing. And I do understand that you need the advertising to fund your game. But not every 10 seconds when you’re trying to color a picture. It gets extremely annoying that they constantly pop up and take away your picture all the time. Give us at least 5 minutes of coloring before an advertisement pops up. That would be awesome! Thanks. ### 2/5 — Sadly Declining *2026-07-09, version 5.4.14* I’ve used this app for many years, and up until a year ago. I would’ve given it five stars. Always enjoyed it very much. However it now seems like it’s no longer being updated with New art. There was absolutely nothing posted for the Fourth of July and the last holiday before that with anything was just a few pieces for Easter. I remember they’re being very little at Christmas too. Not sure what’s going on with this maker. They are no longer servicing this app. I wish it would change. ### 4/5 — Hey Devs *2026-06-29, version 5.4.14* Hi Im Panda I was playing this game all the time but it suddenly locked me out could you fix this bc my restrictions used to let me play but now it won’t now I deleted the app and it just isn’t on my play list anymore please update!

App deleted ### 1/5 — No one managing app *2026-08-14, version 5.4.14* I loved this app but about a year ago whoever was running things completely stopped. Really disappointing. ### 1/5 — Nothing but ads *2026-07-25, version 5.4.14* I would have given it five stars but the ads made it awful. Open a collection…ad. Open a pic…ad. Back out…ad. Complete a pic…ad. Good grief. I know ads are necessary but it’s nothing but ads. ### 1/5 — Ads ads ads ads *2026-07-16, version 5.4.14* A lot of ads I wish I can rate this 0 star just remove ads before I delete the app I am getting so angry 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 ahhhh remove ads ### 1/5 — Worst game I’ve ever laid my hands on *2026-07-15, version 5.4.14* Frustrating honestly im surprised they are still getting downloads. I downloaded this, and first of all every time you click something it makes you watch one, sometimes TWO ads first, then after the ads it says theres a problem. I have full service and wifi, and I’ve watched 8 ads for 8 different pictures and still haven’t been able to colour one mark. Stupidest game ive ever seen. ### 1/5 — I had this game *2026-07-02, version 5.4.14* I had this game I had so much fun but now I’m to young and can’t play it anymore fix this now or I’ll report this game ### 1/5 — Loud audio ads *2026-06-25, version 5.4.14* This app would be fine if they didn’t have ads loud banner ads that randomly play while your playing. These ads show up in a small box and take 10-15 seconds before you can get the option to silence them. I don’t mind ad breaks on a free app, but these ads interrupt anything you’re listening to and can’t easily be silenced. ### 1/5 — Needs new holidays stuff *2026-06-21, version 5.4.14* Needs new colors and options for us to choose our colors and your lacking on holidays you missed Memorial Day ### 1/5 — Deleted The App *2026-06-04, version 5.4.14* I’am having to delete the app after having it for YEARS. I’m no longer gonna pay for a subscription for something that isn’t working and hasn’t been working for a while. I absolutely loved this app, it honestly was 1 of my favorites that I colored from everyday. Please do updates regularly to your app or you will lose more people. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hi *2026-08-14, version 5.4.14* There is an issue with some special images, so we are unable to color them.🤓 ### 5/5 — Lovely app, but some pictures aren’t loading *2026-08-08, version 5.4.14* It’s genuinely one of my favorite apps, but recently some of the pictures under the “special” category have stopped loading.
