### 3/5 — I like it

*2021-04-12*

It takes some getting used to but I was able to pick out the perfect design for painting the exterior of my house.. I played around with light trim and dark colors and I figured out exactly how I want it painted. I could have decided the design with just my imagination. I do think I that the app could be enhanced a bit.

### 4/5 — Needs to support Apple Pencil

*2021-02-02, version 1.5.9*

The app is adequate to visualize colors on walls.  However, the precision needed to paint could be better, especially if you support the apple pencil.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2020-10-31*

Not usable n current format. Needs updating.

### 1/5 — Rip Off

*2020-10-02, version 1.5.9*

This doesn’t work. Watched the video and it definitely does not fill in nicely like it shows. Never given a 1 star review on here before.

### 1/5 — Forget it

*2020-09-10, version 1.5.9*

Not enough color options, hard to manuever, and so many ads its frustrating

### 1/5 — Pop up ads that you cannot close

*2020-07-11, version 1.5.9*

I spend more time dealing with the ads in this  app then my actual project.  Not worth it.

### 1/5 — Worst apt EVER!!!!!!!

*2020-06-30, version 1.5.9*

This must been developed by a 7 year boy!!  The most ridiculous paint apt, utterly worst less.  Cannot paint any structure, wall or anything .  

Don’t even download the apt, unless you want your 6 year to have a toy, a worthless toy

### 4/5 — Good App

*2020-06-05*

I found this painting app quiet helpful. Saved me painting a fence the wrong colour. One thing to note while using it is if you click on a selected paint colour you can add more tones to it. Eg red or blue or whatever is in the mix giving a particular colour. Similar to what they do in a paint store when matching paint.

### 4/5 — Absolut zielführend

*2020-05-29*

Ja, stimmt schon, die Bedienung ist nicht immer intuitiv. Aber man gewöhnt sich schnell dran - es wird ja auch per Video erklärt - und man kommt zum Ziel. Das Ergebnis ist wirklich klasse und hilft wirklich sehr weiter - in unserem Falle bei der Wahl der Außenputzfarbe.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2020-05-06, version 1.5.5*

Don’t waste your time. Literally does not work.

### 3/5 — Needs more colors, like the easy editing.

*2020-04-19*

Better than Home Depot’s editing. With Home Depot’s app, it doesn’t select the wall properly. But with this app it has better detection of the color of the wall and has the option of painting with your finger. Picks up shadows. But the color is a lil more brighter than the color I chose. Needs more color options.

### 2/5 — Meh

*2020-03-26, version 1.5.5*

It’s okay if you’re only wanting one color on a wall. I wasn’t able to “paint” 2 colors on the same wall. LOTS of video ads.

### 1/5 — Horrible

*2020-02-10*

I’m so confused by all these high ratings. This app is horrendous. I am trying to test out colors for a room that has a stripe in the middle. No way of doing that. Everything is glitchy, you can apply just one color, and the colors look so dull even when you pick a vibrant one. I can’t believe there’s no good apps out there for this. I downloaded and tried out about 5. This one was amongst the worst 3.

### 1/5 — Hi

*2020-02-07, version 1.5.5*

It’s annoying

### 1/5 — The King Must Die

*2025-07-19*

I was really enjoying this. So helpful! Until the King ads invaded and WOULD NOT LET ME GO NACK TO THE APP!! I had to go back to the APP search and click on more information to even write this review! I know ads pay the bills. But for heaven’s sake, allow us to get back to the app eventually.! This series of games is ESPECIALLY OFFENSIVE TO ME ANYWAY. SORRY, YOU MUST LOST A user.

### 1/5 — Worst experience

*2023-09-25, version 1.6.9*

So many adds and app is not working

### 1/5 — Cumbersome

*2023-04-03*

What a crappy app!

### 1/5 — Piece of junk

*2022-01-08, version 1.6.9*

Wouldn’t allow me to change anything. Couldn’t figure it out so it was useless to me. Even watched the video

### 1/5 — Sounds good….

*2021-10-14*

I just installed it and an another app appeared over it and until I got it, I couldn’t use your app. Not worth it. No stars!

### 1/5 — Poor quality app

*2021-10-13*

This is a terrible app!  I watched the training directions several times and the app wouldn’t even paint a simple wall unless I payed for the upgrade pro.  Really misleading and very poor quality. My kid’s apps work better than this. Don’t waist your time.

### 1/5 — I’ve found better

*2021-05-09*

It doesn’t work well

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2021-03-31*

So many links and advertisements. Said free but had to purchase app

### 1/5 — Not so great

*2021-03-15, version 1.5.9*

It is a very difficult proses and it did not work , there isn’t even any names next to it so you can’t find that right colour. Never using it again.

### 1/5 — Fatal

*2020-11-06, version 1.5.9*

No se abre

### 5/5 — Easy

*2021-12-22*

I found it basic but easy to use, just to quickly get an idea of room colour layouts.

### 5/5 — Buena

*2021-07-02, version 1.6.8*

Fácil de usar

### 5/5 — Skip the other “Pro” paint apps. Download this. 🎨

*2021-01-28*

The editing is a little bit of a learning curve but once you get it, it works flawlessly. 
I tried almost every other paint app in the App Store and not a single one worked as well as this.

### 5/5 — Woooow

*2020-07-30, version 1.5.9*

Pesima app, no puedo elegir los colores y pintar bien, no sirve 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼

### 5/5 — Very Helpful

*2020-05-07, version 1.5.5*

App is extremely helpful in determining the best color choice before going all in with a bad color.

### 5/5 — Good!

*2020-04-19*

This game is a good and fun to play game! Although you probably won’t understand it if you don’t watch the tutorial but overall it is a very good and useful game when I board or just need something fun to do.

### 5/5 — Practice makes perfect

*2019-06-01*

It takes a bit of practice...but once you get the hang of it ...IT IS AMAZING! 
🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 to the creators! This made my ideas come to life! 
Best app on the market for this and I tried several!!

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-04-07*

I was a little confused but once you know how to use it it’s invaluable!!   I was able to do over 2 rooms based on how the colors looked in my rooms on the app!!!!

### 5/5 — Love Love Love this!!

*2018-08-11, version 1.4.2*

One of my favorite apps to play with! Even if you aren’t planning on painting your room, it’s fun to just see how different colors change the look. Really a lot of fun!

### 5/5 — Love this app!!

*2018-06-11*

Gives you a great visual what your house will look like in different color combos. Fun to play around with! Lots of adds unless you want to upgrade to the pro series
