### 2/5 — No idea if this app works

*2026-08-03*

The App does not allow you to test it in a meaningful way w/o committing. 
3 day free trial?  Maybe

The developer did provide a good response , but it did not really resolve the issue, though I probably will consider a trial period when I have some time to work with it.

**Developer response:** It's totally fair to feel you can't get a real sense of the app without committing. The free version does limit you to just 6 preset shades to try out. Unlocking premium is what opens up the full color mixer and all features. We offer a few different ways to do that, and some include a free trial. We understand if that initial glimpse isn't enough.

### 2/5 — Ничего не понятно но очень интересно

*2026-04-03*

Приложение заблокировано подпиской, не можешь даже понять, нужно оно тебе или нет, функционально или нет

**Developer response:** Понимаем, что сложно оценить приложение, когда оно заблокировано подпиской. Мы действительно предлагаем несколько способов разблокировать премиум, и любой из них открывает весь функционал без рекламы. Если такой подход не для вас, мы это понимаем.

### 2/5 — Good luck trying to use it between ads

*2025-06-14*

Sort of does what it’s supposed to. Lets you take a picture and sort of paint the objects in the picture, but had to dismiss 3 ads which seem to pop up every 45 seconds while I was trying to figure out the tools. Also, the “paint” doesn’t cover. For example; we were trying to see what it would look like if we painted our brick fireplace white. Their fill tool forced us to tap each individual brick and then, because the bricks were different shades, they were different shades of white once “painted”. Do not recommend

**Developer response:** That sounds like a really frustrating first try, and we hear you on the ad frequency - the free tier does have a heavy ad load. Unlocking premium removes all ads and opens up the full color mixer.

For the brick fireplace, the paint applies as a semi-transparent overlay by design to keep the texture, but you can adjust its opacity in the 3-dot menu. And for detailed surfaces like that, the tap-to-fill tool can be tricky; polygon and lasso give much more precise control.

### 2/5 — Not working

*2025-03-30*

I bought the app and I’m trying to import hex colors, but it never works.

**Developer response:** Sorry to hear the HEX color import isn't working for you. It's a common spot people miss: the option is under the 3-dot menu in the top right, labeled 'Add HEX color', not inside the color picker. Give that a try. If it still doesn't let you add a precise shade, please drop a note to bonco.dev@gmail.com with your device details so we can investigate.

### 4/5 — Cores

*2025-03-09*

Poucas opções de cores na versão free. Versão paga barata. Colore bem as paredes, fica parecendo real. Vale a pena

**Developer response:** Sim, a versão gratuita tem uma paleta limitada, e ficamos felizes que a experiência completa valeu a pena para você! É ótimo saber que as cores parecem reais nas paredes; é exatamente o que buscamos.

### 1/5 — Glitchy

*2025-02-19, version 3.3.48*

Doesn’t work. The app is continuously flashing with different colours and won’t let me do anything.

### 1/5 — Fun, but potentially frustrating.

*2025-02-08*

Make sure your local store can actually mix the paint you want before you pay to design a project. I found a shade of yellow that I loved only to find out. Home Depot doesn’t have the RHB color system whatever that means. It might say that somewhere in the description and I just missed it, but I thought if anyone else only has a Home Depot nearby they should know before paying.

**Developer response:** It's genuinely frustrating to find a color you love in the app, only to discover your local store can't mix it from their system. We hear you on that.

The app provides the exact HEX code for any color in your saved projects (you can find it by opening the saved swatch). Many paint stores can use a HEX code to match a shade, even if they don't use the same internal system. You can also add specific HEX codes into the app via the 3-dot menu in the top right.

### 1/5 — Do not pay for this

*2025-01-27, version 3.3.48*

Garbage. Not worth the download, only had limited colors unless you paid for premium

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2024-12-28, version 3.3.48*

Loading pictures is impossible, screen vibrates and does not show image. Waste of time.

### 1/5 — Colors not true

*2024-12-27*

Not only are the colors not true, but you can’t try specific paint colors. I was able to find the hex numbers for the paints I was interested in,however; the colors do not come across true in this app. It’s a waste of money

**Developer response:** That's really frustrating when you're trying to get a precise color and it doesn't look right. The app applies paint as a semi-transparent layer to keep the wall texture underneath, which can make colors look a bit different than a flat swatch. You can adjust the transparency in the 3-dot menu (top right) to see if that helps get closer to what you expect. We're really sorry it's felt like a waste of money.

### 2/5 — Should have ready colors code so that user can directly choose

*2024-11-12*

This app should have color codes as well so that it will be easy for users to directly choose color instead of combining the RGB combination.

**Developer response:** It's a really good point that finding precise color codes, or even knowing the HEX of a color you've picked, isn't as straightforward as it should be. While we don't have built-in brand catalogs, you can add exact HEX colors: tap the 3-dot menu (top right) → 'Add HEX color'. And you're right, seeing the HEX while picking isn't there - it only shows up once you save the project and open the swatch.

### 1/5 — Not good.

*2024-06-02, version 3.3.37*

You only get about 5 choices of colors unless you pay for more. Not worth it.

### 4/5 — Simple efficace

*2024-05-14*

Appli tres simple , prend bien les bons murs grâce a son zoom de sélection. 
Seul regret ne pas pouvoir choisir des valeurs RGB…, donc approximatif car écran de couleur petit.

**Developer response:** Super d'entendre que l'app est simple et que la sélection des murs fonctionne bien avec le zoom ! Pour des couleurs précises, on peut entrer un code HEX via le menu à 3 points en haut à droite ("Add HEX color"). Le déblocage premium ouvre aussi un mélangeur complet avec sliders RGB. Nous savons que l'affichage actuel du sélecteur n'est pas idéal pour la précision.

### 3/5 — App shuts down

*2024-04-08*

Middle of a project about to finish and the app randomly shuts down and ruins everything.

**Developer response:** That's genuinely frustrating to have the app crash and lose your progress right at the end of a project. We know long sessions can sometimes lead to crashes, and reopening the app between projects can help with stability. Since all work is saved locally on your device, we unfortunately don't have a way to recover lost projects. If it keeps happening, send a note to bonco.dev@gmail.com with your device model and what you were doing, and we'll dig in.

### 4/5 — Bietet gute Werkzeuge für die Detailarbeit

*2024-02-18*

Sehr funktional, lohnt sich gegenüber den kostenlosen Alternativen. 
Wo ist noch Luft nach oben?
Könnte noch mehr Möglichkeiten bieten, Änderungen zurückzunehmen (ist nicht bei jeder Änderung und nicht viele Male hintereinander möglich). Schön wäre eine iPad-Ansicht auch im Querformat.

**Developer response:** Schön zu lesen, dass die Werkzeuge und die Funktionalität für Sie passen und sich die App lohnt. Die Rückgängig-Funktion ist in der Tat etwas, das wir uns ansehen, und auch der Wunsch nach einer besseren iPad-Querformat-Ansicht ist klar notiert. Danke für die tollen Vorschläge!

### 1/5 — Confused?

*2024-01-21*

I purchased the extra color pallet for $9.00 but it doesn ‘t give you individual color pallets, just the option to move your finger around on a colored rainbow to sort of find a color that sort of works.

**Developer response:** Sounds like you were hoping the "extra color pallet" unlock would bring specific brand swatches, and that's a fair expectation. What it actually unlocks is the full color mixer - the RGB and hue sliders you described - so you can dial in *any* shade. We don't have a built-in brand catalog, but you can get exact brand colors by looking up their HEX code online, then tapping the 3-dot menu at the top right, choosing "Add HEX color", and typing it in. Hopefully that helps bridge the gap a bit.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2026-06-17*

Colors bleed into objects, only have five colors to choose from. Deleted.
This is not “wade”.

**Developer response:** Totally get how frustrating edge bleed can be with the auto-fill tool. For much cleaner lines, the polygon and lasso tools are often key, plus the 'expand area' slider helps with precision. You're right too, the free version only offers a few shades. Unlocking premium opens up the full color mixer so you can dial in any color you like.

### 1/5 — Pointless

*2026-04-06, version 3.3.140*

Colors bleed into objects, only have five colors to choose from. Deleted.

### 1/5 — Бесплатная версия бесполезная

*2026-03-04*

На выбор всего несколько цветов, чтобы настроить свой нужно купить подписку. Совсем с ума сошли

**Developer response:** Понимаем, что ограниченный выбор в бесплатной версии может быть разочаровывающим. Действительно, она предлагает только несколько предустановленных оттенков. Подписка открывает полный цветовой микшер, где можно настроить любой оттенок, а также убирает всю рекламу. Если сейчас это не то, что вы ищете, мы это ценим.

### 1/5 — Dreadful free version

*2026-01-08, version 3.3.91*

Hopeless

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-01-01, version 3.3.91*

The fact that you only get a set colour and they aren’t even the basic colours for homes. This app sucks and I wouldn’t and won’t use it or recommend it

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2025-10-16*

Bad ai. Poor colours. Trouble with undertones in photo. Don’t install.

**Developer response:** It sounds like you had a really frustrating time with the app, and we're sorry it didn't meet your needs. The auto-fill can sometimes struggle with complex edges, but switching to the polygon or lasso tools gives a lot more control for precise selections. And for color blending and undertones, adjusting the color transparency in the 3-dot menu can often make a big difference in how the shades appear on your walls.

### 1/5 — Selten mit soviel Werbung zugemüllt!

*2025-10-04*

Nach jedem einzelnen Schritt wird man mit Werbung geflutet. Nach 5 Minuten lösche ich dieses Programm, ohne ein einzig brauchbares Ergebnis erhalten zu haben.

**Developer response:** Das ist absolut verständlich - die Gratis-Version ist leider mit vielen Werbeanzeigen und nur 6 Farben stark eingeschränkt. Das Freischalten von Premium entfernt alle Anzeigen und gibt Ihnen Zugriff auf den vollständigen Farbmixer. Wenn das Erlebnis so nicht für Sie passt, haben wir dafür volles Verständnis.

### 1/5 — Paid Verison Required

*2025-06-15*

This app wont give enough color options to view the room in. Makes you pay and view an advertisement every time you want to do anything.

**Developer response:** It's true the free tier offers only a few preset shades and has frequent ads, so it can feel very restricted. That's a fair point on the experience. Unlocking premium removes all ads and opens up the full color mixer, letting you dial in any shade with RGB sliders.

### 1/5 — Very disappointed

*2025-04-28*

I thought I was going to be able to try different colors on photos of my walls from Benjamin Moore, Behr or others.  Not so.  And I tried to lighten my yellow walls and the app turned them blue.  I feel ripped off.

**Developer response:** We hear your disappointment about finding brand-name paints. It's true the listing reads like there's a built-in catalog for brands like Benjamin Moore or Behr, and there isn't one. You can still get exact shades by looking up their HEX code online, then tapping the 3-dot menu in the top right → 'Add HEX color' in the app. The yellow walls turning blue is definitely not right, and we'd want to understand what happened there.

### 1/5 — Not worth it

*2025-03-06*

I found this app did a poor job recognizing shapes in a room. Very difficult to import paint colours and apply an even coat.  Not worth the cost.

**Developer response:** It sounds genuinely frustrating when the app isn't working as you expect. For wall selection, the auto-fill can sometimes struggle with complex edges, but the polygon and lasso tools offer much more precision, along with the 'expand area' sensitivity slider. If you're importing colors, the HEX option is under the 3-dot menu in the top right, then 'Add HEX color' - it's easy to miss in the main picker.

### 5/5 — Best paint visualizer out there

*2025-10-27*

Needed something intuitive, fast, and powerful, this was the only app that fit the bill (tried a bunch of others, deleted them all). Once you unlock premium it’s so easy to use. Doesn’t link to specific paints to purchase AFAIK but that is a plus IMHO, keeps things nimble. Love this so much!

### 5/5 — Love love love

*2025-01-03, version 3.3.48*

If you are considering making any color changes to your home, this app is perfect for you. All of the tools are just perfect. It works not just on walls, but counters, cabinets, floors, etc. 
If you’re considering painting or changing anything in your home, the cost of the app is 10000% worth it.

### 5/5 — The app works well

*2024-08-22*

I been using this app for months now and it’s been working great

**Developer response:** Really happy to hear it's been working great for you over these past months! 😊

### 5/5 — Super

*2024-06-05*

Super

**Developer response:** Super, ça fait plaisir à lire ! ✨

### 5/5 — Good purchase

*2023-12-30*

works fine

**Developer response:** Happy it's been a good purchase and working well!

### 5/5 — Bin begeistert.

*2023-12-26*

Ich überlege seit langem meine Wände neu zu streichen, konnte mir aber nicht richtig vorstellen, welche Farbe wie wirkt. Das kann ich hiermit  einfachen Handgriffen simulieren. Ich finde es großartig. Ausgabe lohnt sich für die Vollversion. 

Wenn ich die Farbe ausgesucht habe, kann ich das Projekt speichern und mir wird die RAL Nummer angezeigt. Wirklich exzellent!

**Developer response:** Es ist super zu hören, wie gut „Paint my Room“ Ihnen hilft, Farben an den Wänden vorab zu visualisieren. Genau dafür ist die App da! Toll, dass die Vollversion für Sie den Unterschied macht und Sie die RAL-Nummer beim Speichern Ihres Projekts so exzellent finden. Das ist eine große Motivation für uns.

### 5/5 — Cool

*2023-12-19*

Super

**Developer response:** Happy you like it!

### 5/5 — Very cost effective

*2023-10-09*

Powerful and quick confirm your pant choice.

**Developer response:** Really glad you found the app cost effective and that it helps you quickly confirm paint choices. That's exactly what we aim for!

### 5/5 — Paint my room

*2023-07-04*

Had to reload app when i got new ipad. Didn’t load in english.

**Developer response:** I apologize for the issue with wrong language. We're fixing it right now. Edit: It's fixed

### 5/5 — Tape off

*2023-05-14*

I really like this app but it always includes my ceiling. How can I get around that when I’m painting the wall?

**Developer response:** Thank you for the review! You can adjust intensity of painted are with the slider on the bottom screen. If that's still not enough precision, you can use manual lasso tools, by clicking the `bucket` button on the bottom left corner. Dominik
