### 5/5 — Works just fine

*2024-09-20, version 2.0*

Simple, pretty elegant and very handy for transferring photos to a backing for lifelike renderings.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2022-09-13, version 2.0*

By far the best such app. Brilliant.

### 2/5 — Has potential but if I save a project It opens up blank.

*2020-12-23*

Have to keep reimporting the original image

### 1/5 — TERRIBLE!!

*2020-12-09, version 2.0*

This app is terrible, I payed $2.00 for an app that constantly crashes, takes forever to load and doesn’t even do what its supposed to. 
I want my money back.

### 1/5 — Never worked.

*2020-04-18, version 2.0*

This crashed within the first 30 seconds of using it.

### 5/5 — yes yes yes YES

*2020-04-08, version 2.0*

i love this app so much, it did a great job and it’s easy to personalize your paint by number to whatever you need (which colors, how many, the clarity of your photo, literally EVERYTHING about your picture you‘re able to change should you choose) - i honestly couldn’t ask for anything more from it

### 1/5 — Not Compatible with iPad Pro 12.9

*2018-11-17, version 1.11*

Touch did not work with finger or pen.  Color panel did not open.

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2018-11-01, version 1.11*

Sections are not accurate. Rendered pictures are not suitable for painting.  Results are very slow which makes it seem to be crashed.

### 1/5 — This is trash....

*2018-01-15, version 1.11*

Garbage app, can only do up to 20 different colors, no detail - pointless.

### 5/5 — Unreal

*2017-12-16*

I purchased this app yesterday and from then till now I have been learning all about it by trial and error. It’s fabulous. It does everything I want. I’m waiting on a small projector that takes a smart phone and if it works how I want it to, I will be able to get the outline to show on canvas without printing it on there and then just painting. I can’t wait to try it as I have quite a few new blank canvases. Thankyou so much for making this app. 😍💋
