Newest version has made it literally unusable.

I have been using this app for years now and it was genuinely an enjoyable way to wind down and relax. It’s something I’ve recommended to multiple people throughout the years due to its simplicity. One of my favorite features was the ability to add in our own photos to make into pixel art and although I used the given feature of built in art as well, I loved doing my own pics. This app had everything needed to make it user friendly; including a large number selector, freedom to make what you want, the ability to find the numbers in a swift way, and a useful way to fill in a multitude of spaces at once.

That was all ruined by the new update. Not only did it take me countless try’s to actually enter the app, but almost everything is different. There is no longer the option to Import you’re own photos, the number selector at the bottom (which used to be a great size) is now tiny and clunky, and the art I’m tying to fill won’t even let me tap more then one box at a time before it freezes! Not only that, but I have had my images reset on me multiple times with it erasing my progress 9/10 times.

Now I understand this is supposed to be a kid friendly app that doesn’t need perfection, but most features in the original version was everything needed to make it enjoyable to use. I don’t plan on deleting it just yet in case there is another update planned that might make it useable again, but that sure as hell doesn’t mean I’ll be using it for the time being.

I love this game! But the bug fixes seem to have broken it a bit.

This is an app that I have had on my phone for literal years! No annoying ads and a fantastic variety of images to color! I spend quite a bit of time on it, so much so I might have to cut back if I’m being honest. I would rate this a 5/5 if it weren’t for two issues. For a time there would be days where it would crash out of nowhere, to the point I fully deleted my progress and started from a clean slate after trying every remedy the internet recommended. The second problem is that the new update has come with its own issues. In my collections some images are either blank or won’t let me access them. Every time I finish an image, it sends me to the subscription screen, but I already have the yearly subscription. I don’t know if cancelling the subscription and re subscribing will fix this issue. I might have to put my coloring on hold until the next update. I have the latest system update on my phone, have off loaded the app via storage, and have removed the game from my Home Screen and reinstalled it. I really hope that I don’t have to delete it and start all over again.

Been great since 2017.. Until now

I’ve played this app almost daily since first installing it way back in 2017, and I have had no issues at all until the most recent update (9th September) Upon updating, I was no longer able to use the app. It had a never ending loading bar saying that it was processing, but would never go beyond 201 (out of over 26,000!). Processing what, I don’t know, I’m assuming all the pictures available on the app. I had no choice but to delete this app and reinstall it.. Which unfortunately meant losing ALL of the pictures I’ve coloured in the last 8+ years. The app now works, but there have been subtle changes that I am struggling to get on with, such as no longer having haptic feedback when automatically moving onto the next colour, a slightly more delayed highlighted graphical change when moving onto the next colour, some spaces that are actually filled in but don’t appear to be unless you move the canvas.. Little things like this have unfortunately ruined my experience and love for this app, on top of losing all my data. It’s been a brilliant app until this recent update, and there have pretty much not been any major changes in functionality over almost 10 years, so it is sad to see these small changes.
