## What is PicNum?

Turn a photo you love into a paint-by-numbers canvas made just for you.

PicNum transforms pet photos, family moments, travel memories, and favorite objects into numbered artwork you can color one region at a time. Choose a relaxed or detailed template, follow the numbered palette, and watch your picture come to life with every tap.

MAKE IT PERSONAL
• Create paint-by-numbers artwork from your own photos
• Start right away with five free sample paintings
• Choose Easy, Normal, Hard, or Expert detail

ENJOY EVERY TAP
• Fill numbered regions with simple taps
• Pinch to zoom into small details
• Highlight matching regions and locate what to paint next
• Undo, redo, and adjust the generated colors
• Feel gentle haptics as your painting fills in

KEEP AND SHARE YOUR ART
• Save multiple paintings and continue whenever you like
• See in-progress and completed work in your library
• Choose the background color for your export
• Save or share the finished artwork

No account is required. Five sample paintings are included. Creating a new painting from your own photo uses conversion credits, with the cost shown before you continue. More credits are available through optional consumable in-app purchases. There is no subscription.

Photos selected for conversion are uploaded to our server, used only to create the painting, and deleted after a successful conversion. See the privacy policy for complete retention and data-handling details.

Pick a photo that matters to you and turn it into something you made.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.1 — 2026-10-02

Paint to music, see what's left, and find your next region faster.

• Relaxing background music: choose LoFi or Meditation in Settings, or turn it off
• See how many regions are left for each color right in the palette
• A bigger locate button that zooms closer to the next region, plus double tap to jump ahead automatically
• Short tips that introduce zoom, locate, and the More menu as you paint
• Clearer notes on Hard and Expert, which have smaller regions
• Pinch to zoom now follows your fingers instead of the canvas center
• More reliable photo conversion: PicNum keeps waiting through weak connections and tells you when it's still working
• Lost purchased credits? Get help from Settings
• Report a Problem now works from the canvas on iPad
