### 4/5 — 楽しい

*2026-04-29*

楽しいです。無料でも楽しめますが1500円課金すると素敵なクリエーターさん達のドット絵を塗り絵としてさらに楽しむ事が出来ます。日本語訳が欲しいので星4にしました。

**Developer response:** Hi there,
Thank you so much for your review and support. We'll try to add Japanese translation to the app soon :)

### 5/5 — A breath of fresh air.

*2026-04-14*

Honestly the best purchase i’ve ever made. The fact that it shows real artists and condemns AI is incredible, and a rare site for the state of the app store. Please continue doing this. I LOVE to keep playing.

**Developer response:** Hi cupcake kiwi,
Thank you so much for giving us 5 stars. We love pixel art, and will do whatever we can to promote real art by real talented artists. There will never be any AI-generated content in Pixquare Colors, not now, not ever.

**Developer response:** Hi LeafyCaleb,

### 5/5 — Best Colouring App!

*2026-04-11*

Beautiful images and all human made! I’m so tired of trying colouring games and they’re all full of AI generated images, definitely worth the lifetime pass in my opinion.

**Developer response:** Hi Aetherwoah,
Thank you so much for supporting Pixquare Colors and our team. We hope you'll have a great time with pixel art.

### 5/5 — WHY I LOVE PIXQUARE

*2026-04-04, version 1.6.0*

I love how there are no adds and how fun and relaxing this game is! I enjoy how vibrant the colors in the pictures!(I also enjoy all the cats!)

### 5/5 — A genuine game

*2026-04-03, version 1.6.0*

A absolutely lovely and thoughtful experience

### 5/5 — Very nice

*2026-04-03, version 1.6.0*

Best color by number game with no ads and one time purchase.

### 5/5 — AMAZING

*2026-03-27*

I love this app because i am able to colour large chunks of pixels easily. I absolutely hate it when i need to click each pixel individually, thats why i normally stay away frrom pixel art. HOWEVER this app is so good. It has like a pen like cursor that allows you to drag your mouse anywhere you want to colour I LOVE IT!! and you can use discount codes for lifetime access which allows you to import your own photos to colour!!

**Developer response:** Hi aquis888,
Thank you so much for giving us 5 stars. We are glad that you enjoy coloring with Pixquare Colors and will try to add more art to the app for you to enjoy.

### 5/5 — Awesome

*2026-03-22*

Hi ! This game is absolutely awesome and I love the collaboration with real artists, it made me discover some great ones that I will follow ^^
Everything is perfect, I would just like if the art we have already colored could appear as done but it really just is a detail :)
Anyway I love your work !

**Developer response:** Hi Artiane9,
Thank you so much for your kind words.
As for your feedback, do you mean the app should still show the art but mark it as done instead of hiding them from Home and Discover?
You can answer us at info@pixquarecolors.art

### 1/5 — 색을 도저히 구분할 수 없음..

*2026-07-01*

크기를 조금만 줄여도 색을 도저히 구분할 수 없음.. 삭제합니다... 안녕히계세요...

**Developer response:** Hi dfghncxee,
Thank you so much for your feedback. We'll definitely look into ways to improve these things.
We wish you all the best.

### 1/5 — Good & Bad

*2026-03-11, version 1.6.0*

Its fun to color but theres like 10 free coloring pages then u have to pay money for the rest

### 1/5 — 🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

*2025-11-08*

When are you gonna let us remove the watermark on images that we import?

You said you agreed with me, but you seem to be taking way too long to keep your word

**Developer response:** Hi Greg.ni,
We are sorry for this late action. We were busy focusing on other features and another project, and didn't add that toggle even though it was added to Pixquare Colors' roadmap.
We just added that toggle just now. That should be available in the next update.
After the next update, we hope that you can reconsider and revise this review.

### 2/5 — My opinion

*2026-07-03*

This game is a really fun and interesting game but for kids like me that don’t have their own credit card or like bank account they can barely play this game because they can only color the artwork in their recommended pictures and recommended pictures like get maybe a picture or two a week and it is just unfair for kids and adults, and I do understand why you would have to make a price but maybe add either some free ones that maybe you create or like put more in your recommended pictures, oh and also the other day I was in continuing artwork and one of my pictures that a I dint get finish I had to pay for even though I had started it!!!

Thank you for hearing my opinion,
Lexi

**Developer response:** Hi Lexi,
Please contact us at info@pixquare.art. We are happy to gift you a free copy of the app :)

### 3/5 — Bom mas não amplia

*2026-05-25*

Não amplia

**Developer response:** Hi Buoru,
We are working on expanding the art collection of the app. But it does take time, unfortunately. We recently just added 2 collections of Mirru and Tiny Swords to the app and will continue adding more in future releases.
Best

### 3/5 — This app is ok

*2026-03-26, version 1.6.0*

I wish that we do more pictures to unlock them or earn them

### 3/5 — Pretty fun! But buggy

*2025-09-07, version 1.1.0*

This is definitely a fun take on the color by number genre by adding a game aspect to it, which is cool! The fact that you can import your own photos is really fun, and I like the selection the game gives you. 
 I think there should be a few more free canvases, but 10 dollars for a one time fee forever isn’t terrible so I can understand it a bit. 
 However, there is somethings to be worked on. The game is very buggy for me, crashing often, especially if I have YouTube on in the mini player, or if I’m using an imported drawing that’s too big. Also an imported photo bug is that it changes the colors drastically. 
Overall though, this is very fun and has a lot of potential, and I am hopeful to see where it goes from here!

### 4/5 — Love the app - one suggestion

*2026-06-10*

I have been playing this game for a minute and I am loving it so far! My past pixel art app was getting so bogged down with ads that it was genuinely unplayable, so finding this app was a godsend! If I could make one request, I would love for there to be an indication on the home and discovery pages to tell you if you’ve already colored a picture or not. Or even a toggle in the filter section to filter out previously completed images. It’s really not that big of a deal but it’s a QOL feature that i would really like!

**Developer response:** Hi a casual pedestrian,
Pixquare Colors already filters out the images that you have already started and won't show them on the Home and Discover tabs. However, if you are still using the free version, the For You section in Home will only show the free images and won't apply any other filter.
We hope this helps and can earn your last star :D

### 4/5 — Gaby’s opinion

*2026-06-08*

This game is really good! I could see why it’s ranked with 5 stars. It has good concept, the drawings created by artists, not AI, are GREAT, I love how it has music so it’s not super boring, everything is so good in this game! Although, one thing that I didn’t really like, is that you have to pay for some drawings. I clicked on this bunny drawing on the “cute” section, and I was ready to color the drawing,  but then I saw it was 10 dollars. I am really sorry but I am not paying 10 dollars for a bunny drawing. I understand that the artist could have taken a lot of their time on this, but paying 10 dollars in a game that I will probably forget about in a few days, isn’t really valid to me. Overall, I would rate this a 4.5. Sorry if the review is offensive, it’s just my own opinion.

**Developer response:** Hi Gaby,
First of all, thank you so much for taking the time to write this review. We really appreciate it.
As for the price tag, putting the effort to develop the app aside, all the artworks in the app were purchased from the artists, so we need funding to keep expanding the art collection and include more artists :D.
We totally understand your thoughts. After all, this is only a side project of ours for people who appreciate the beauty of pixel art, a safe place against the AI slop influx.
We hope you'll have a great day and lots of fun.
All the best,
Pixquare Team

### 4/5 — Amazing coloring app but i one issue

*2026-05-02*

I love this app! its the best coloring app i've ever had! But i do have one issue, my purchases keep getting reset in the shop. like my cursor size and the powerups keep resetting to the lowest size and its kinda frustrating to keep going back to coloring with one pixel again! i would love if this could be fixed but other than that this app is amazing!

**Developer response:** Hi Tavros2,
Thank you so much for sending feedback to us and reporting this issue. If you are using iCloud sync and your iCloud storage is almost full, it can sometimes delete random data to free up space, which leads to Pixquare Colors losing the store data if its files are deleted.
You can turn that off for a more stable experience. You can also contact us at info@pixquarecolors.art. We'll do our best to help you with the issue.

### 5/5 — My favourite cozy game!

*2026-08-05*

I love this so much! No annoying ads and it’s free, and so many options!

**Developer response:** We love pixel art, and we love our users too, so we'll do our best to deliver the best experience to you with Pixquare Colors.

### 5/5 — Exactly what I’ve been looking for

*2026-07-30*

I’ve been a huge fan of the pixel, color by number games for a long time. However, you either have to deal with tons of ads, or pay an insane subscription to unlock other pictures. This game changed it all! It’s a one time payment that is quite affordable, and it unlocks tons of really cool and neat pictures to color. There’s also “powers” that you can use and upgrade to help you color, but also an option to not sure them if you just want to relax. 

The Devs are also attentive to comments, and when I ran into an issue, they contacted me within days and were amazing to deal with. So I highly recommend this game over all the others  if you’re a fan of the genre, but want to access all of the content in a more affordable way!

**Developer response:** Hi Jonwayfor,
Thank you so much for your 5 stars, and it's our pleasure to help you with any issues that you might have with Pixquare Colors.
We hope you'll have a lot of fun with pixel art.

### 5/5 — I LOVE THE APP. Absolutely 10/10. But

*2026-07-27*

Maybe add a bigger brush setting? It would make the experience much more relaxing for winding down and watching all the pixels fill smoothly.

**Developer response:** Hi there,
For bigger brushes, you'll have to earn it :)
As you color, you'll collect stars, and you can use those stars to upgrade your coloring tools in the in-app store.

### 5/5 — Fun

### 5/5 — The little guys are ADORABLE! <3 (pls read to the end)

*2026-06-26*

I know I’ve already made a review, but I have a couple suggestions and I just want to add a couple things: I got the VIP version now and I think it was a great decision! This game has no adds, and doesn’t require Wifi too! There’s no AI and I find it really nice! :3 I do have a couple suggestions tho, (they’re mainly about the companions) I find these little guys absolutely ADORABLE! They are so cute! I really wish that we could interact with them while we colour (pat them, pick them up, etc) It would also be nice if we could access them besides just seeing them while we colour, I would kind of like it if they could have their own little spot in the homepage or something. Lastly, I just wanna say that the developers did a great job on this and I hope you feel proud of your self <3

**Developer response:** Hi Soot Sprite12,
Thank you so much for your support for our app, we really appreciate it :D
Your suggestions were our initial intention with those companions as well. But, to be honest with you, the app fails to gain traction, so we cannot allocate too much time to it at the moment, other than adding more art. We have to focus our attention on other projects. 
If we have time in the future, we'll definitely add these features.
We hope you can understand.

### 5/5 — beautiful app
