### 4/5 — Incredible app-just one thing

*2023-10-20*

I am absolutely in love with this app. I love Moriah’s work, and when I was watching the video where she announced her app, I got very excited. I downloaded the app immediately, and I’ve been using it daily ever since. Although in the recent update with the addition of “Sparkles”, I have had a few complaints. Firstly, I can’t make a Stripe account due to the fact that I am underage. They also require a lot of seemingly unnecessary information to sign up. I have no desire to make money off of Sparkles, I just want to get the stickers and backgrounds. Secondly, because I can’t make an account, I can’t buy stickers and backgrounds. I know that you can buy Sparkles to get them, but you can’t do that without having a Stripe account. Lastly, I would love to see Create This Books 1 and 2 in the app as well. I’m still working on the first one, and it would be nice to be able to log my progress on the app in these books as well. To sum it all up, I love this app, but I’m just disappointed in the new update. I was hoping that the Sparkles could be earned by completing challenges? For example, “play spark everyday for 7 days”, “complete 20 daily sparks”, “create with a friend “, something like that? I just don’t want to have to deal with the whole Stripe account situation. If that’s too much to ask, maybe just make it possible to make in-app purchases without being an “Official Sparker”. Love everything you do, Moriah!

### 4/5 — Amazing APP >:3

*2023-10-11*

I looveee this app, and it’s really amazing! I love how you can interact with friends and explore different art. Spark has really helped me as an artist too! There are a couple things I think could improve the game. I think it would be neat if there was a gallery for your unfinished art pieces! Adding more pickle expressions could be a good addition so everyone can express how they feel about the art! Another thing I’d add would be where you can select MORE than one idea from your lightbulb post. There’s been tons of ideas I’ve wanted to do, but I haven’t been able. Adding a color wheel would make it MUCH easier to find good colors. More layers could be a good thing too. Some people usually use tonnns of layers so this would be much easier for them. They might be able to add something where it gives a Timelapse of allll your art instead of only being able to use it once. I know this is probably too much to ask lol, but all these things could really improve the game even more! This is an awesome and fun game that comes with a lovely experience! Thank you so much to the creators of the game and for everyone who’s helped make this amazing experience!

### 4/5 — Great, but one problem

*2023-08-03*

I really like this app! It gives you a few art prompts, and has new prompts every day, so you don’t have to think of what to draw, but if you think of something that isn’t a prompt, you can just make a blank canvas. When you exit out of the app, it saves what you are currently working on, which is nice when I have to go do something.
This is also great for teens who don’t have social media yet, because it’s like social media because you can share art and ask for suggestions, but people rarely share personal information, and if they do, it’s not harmful or revealing to who they are (where they live, their name, stuff like that). There is also nothing bad you can come across.
There was one problem with the app, I made a drawing, and tried to save it multiple times, and every time it exited me out of the app, so I had to start over. This has only happened with one drawing. 
Overall, the app is amazing, works well, and is surprisingly good for drawing on a phone. I would be happy to change this to 5 stars if the saving problem was fixed! 😁😁😁

### 4/5 — this app is amazing but there are few things that could be fixed

*2023-05-30*

I love using this app to help flow my creativity, and it’s an amazing app. But I feel like a lot of the tools you have to buy and I can’t buy a lot of tools for fun extra things which makes me feel left out. And the fact that they are such high prices it even harder for me and others get the fun extra things like the cool sticker packs, or the fun lights or vines. I definitely wish there was a smaller eraser tool, and a blending tool. It’s overall great app there are just a few things that if they were tweaked the app would be even better, but I do like the things that they put in the new update. And the fact that sometimes your art doesn’t save, even though it’s supposed to makes me a little upset when I worked so hard on a piece of art. And definitely a more variety of pastel colors would be great as well, and a bigger variety of browns. I would definitely recommend this app but if those few things were tweaked I think the app would be a whole lot better

### 4/5 — Amazing! Needs some adjustments.

*2023-04-07*

This app is amazing, it gets me inspires me to draw, gets my creativity flowing, and it is aesthetically pleasing! The daily art challenges are great and I can pop on the app whenever to do a challenge. But, there are some improvements to be made. When I started to do the daily challenge, I was half way done and my battery had died. I opened the app back up and it was all gone. I wish that there was a feature that saves your art to finish later and it not just going away forever. 
Another thins is the fact that there is no more long text. Now if i can’t finish a word or sentence, I need to bring in another text box and it is very annoying. Sometimes i will be writing a sentence and it will randomly cut off and i need to bring another Text box in.
Last thing I would like to be a feature is if anytime i want a straight line i can just hold down a couple of seconds and it will be straight. Now if i want to make a box I cant make the lines straight and they are all wobbly and curvy. I have very shaky hands and when I try to make a line it is very well… not straight.
I love the app though! Everything else is amazing and it is so awesome to see all of the other artists work. Seeing Moriah’s art as well is so cool. Over all the people who worked on it clearly put a lot of time and work into it and it is awesome. Would definitely recommend downloading the app! Love Moriah and all the art and things she does for us.

### 4/5 — I AM SO MADDDDDDDD😾😾😾😾😾😾😾

*2023-03-27*

of aviation, there is no way a bee should be able to fly. Its wings are too small to get its fat little body off the ground. The bee, of course, flies anyway because bees don't care what humans think is impossible. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Yellow, black. Ooh, black and yellow! Let's shake it up a little. Barry! Breakfast is ready! Ooming! Hang on a second. Hello? - Barry? - Adam? - Oan you believe this is happening? - I can't. I'll pick you up. Looking sharp. Use the stairs. Your father paid good money for those. Sorry. I'm excited. Here's the graduate. We're very proud of you, son. A perfect report card, all B's. Very proud. Ma! I got a thing going here. - You got lint on your fuzz. - Ow! That's me! - Wave to us! We'll be in row 118,000. - Bye! Barry, I told you, stop flying in the house! - Hey, Adam. - Hey, Barry. - Is that fuzz gel? - A little. Special day, graduation. Never thought I'd make it. Three days grade school, three days high school. Those were awkward. Three days college. I'm glad I took a day and hitchhiked around the hive. You did come back different. - Hi, Barry. - Artie, growing a mustache? Looks good. - Hear about Frankie? - Yeah. - You going to the funeral? - No, I'm not going. Everybody knows,

### 4/5 — Good app miner flaws

*2023-02-11, version 1.2.4*

I love this app but there are some minor flaws. First off, the glitches. I realize That this is a new app, and it moves a little slow, but the glitches need work. There have been more than one time were have drawn something I love, and I'm almost finished but then the app glitches or my device dies and I lose my drawing. This has become a problem. I also was wondering if there could be a feature were the app will make your lines straight for you If you hold you pen down for a few seconds. This is a feature on many drawing apps such as procreate. Now I LOVE the creative drawing prompts and the fact that there are drawing competitions every holiday. Big ღԵհɑղƘՏღ to Moriah for making this incredible app for her fans. Please download this right now!

### 4/5 — good but there is a few issues

*2023-02-08, version 1.2.3*

i love this app, i love moriah and she is awesome, but this app could use some improvement. one, my ipad stops working sometimes after using the color dropping tool and idk if that's just my ipad or the app, some of the tools could use some improvement and we could use some different brushes, even just a square brush would be a LIFESAVER!!! and i know this isn't a issue, just a inconvenience, BUT, being able to click on a persons account in the "your sparklers" tab instead of having to scroll alll the way down to the person, idk if that's just me but i thought it was annoying. now to the pros, the community is really great and i really enjoy drawing the prompts, the artists are sooooo talented and hilarious. i just love spark but i do hope that my complaints (or requests, depends on how u look at it) or met ❤️❤️❤️

### 4/5 — Great idea, could be improved.

*2023-02-07, version 1.2.3*

I’ve been using Spark for a little under a month, and I absolutely LOVE it so far! It’s fun, the community is nice, and it’s helped me cure my art block! However, I do have a couple of complaints/suggestions:

PLEASE ADD LAYERS! I know it’s not meant to be a heavy-duty drawing app, but even though I almost always just draw in grayscale on it, it’s hard to shade areas because it could mess up my lineart. And for people who actually take the time and effort to color in their drawings….RIP buddy.

Make it more iPad friendly? I use my iPad for this app (I am not used to my phone and I would rather use my pen) but the edges of the app don’t line up with the edges of my screen, and it’s quite annoying. 

Comments might be a good idea as well. I completely understand and support not having DMs on this app as they can be incredibly dangerous, but I don’t necessarily see much issue with comments on posts, as long as they are moderated.

And….the lag. If I draw on a particular drawing for too long, it will almost always begin to lag, and the lines I draw are the speed of a snail compared to my pen. It’s not a HUGE issue, but it is quite annoying.

Overall, a great app with a few problems that need to be fixed. A great start in social media for younger kids, as well.

### 4/5 — Pretty good, but needs some fixing up

*2023-02-02, version 1.2.3*

I love Moriah Elizabeth so you can imagine how thrilled I was when I heard that she had released her very own app. I like the idea of a social media app dedicated to sharing your artwork with others. However, after using Spark for a while, I noticed a couple of issues that should be paid some attention. For example, I used to use the image button to post drawings that I had done on paper or using the Procreate app. Then, the image button was removed and I could no longer do that. I, as well as many others, would like to have this useful feature back. Another problem that I have come across is my art deleting while I am in the middle of creating it. It just disappears and I am left looking at the Spark Home Screen. It makes me quite frustrated and has happened many times. Overall, Spark is an entertaining app but there are some issues and bugs that should be looked into. Thank you!!

### 4/5 — PLEASE READ.

*2023-01-19, version 1.2.2*

Ok, so I got this app a couple of months ago, and I have loved every part of it. How it challenges you every day by telling you what to draw, and how aesthetic the background is, I think Moriah did a great job. There is however, one thing i would like to point out; It does glitch for me, and this has been happening recently. It has a tendency to “glitch” me out, not saving my artwork. I was very unpleased because I worked on a  drawing for 2 hours, then it just disappeared, I was so mad. So I have a suggestion; maybe the developers could somehow make it so that you can save it before you finish it, in case you have to log out and don’t have time finish it, so it doesn’t delete itself, (or for my problem, when it glitches me out and automatically deletes it). Thank you if you read this.

### 4/5 — Review

*2023-01-17, version 1.2.2*

I love this app! It’s like instagram but for art specifically. As cool as it is, there are still some issues. 1: no line straightener. You would not believe how many times I’ve had to redo lines to make them straighter or redo circles. 2: image button. I see why it was removed and for a very good reason, but is there a way to only be able to use things taken from art apps? It would be cool because some of us draw on procreate or ibisPaint x. 3: this one is a bit petty, but if you continuously remix a drawing all of the stuff gets blurry. So those are my complaints, but there are so many more pros than those cons. Okay but can we get a blending tool? Because I am so annoyed with making the opacity of the color like 3% and keep building up layers until it kind of looks blended

### 4/5 — Good but one flaw eats away at me when drawing

*2023-01-05, version 1.2.1*

I love this app so much! I use it whenever i have burnout or art block and it always helps. I have come to use it more than procreate. 

The one thing that I hate, is sometimes while drawing the app exits me out of my drawing to where I cant save it. I can say confidently its not because i accidently press a button. I will have been drawing 40 minutes on something i love, and out of nowhere, the drawing exits and i am left feeling empty because all my hardword disapeared. It makes it hard to want to draw sometimes, because im afraid to draw something that will vanish while drawing. I do however screenshot as i go just incase but since i cant upload pictures it just kinda goes to waste. Maybe a drafts folder would be good? so that you could go back to drafts if the picture vanishes?

### 1/5 — Christians can’t express their beliefs!

*2023-05-20*

I fell in love with spark and it is amazing! I love Moriah Elizabeth’s art! I love everything about it! Until yesterday….. Someone on spark made an artwork that declared people can live however they want. They then showed gay and transgender emojis. As a Christian that went against my beliefs so I decided to remix the creation. Spark has a feature where you can edit a creation, add to it, and then post it on your account while giving credit to the original artist. I remixed the creation to say that God controls our lives and He decides how we live. (Which is true!) I crossed out the gay and transgender emojis since the Bible does not say it is okay to be gay and transgender. A day later I log onto spark because I wanted to do a spark and it says my account is “locked” and that my account is under “supervision”. Weird right? It says I should check my email for more information so I check my email. There are two emails from spark one says that my artwork I did the other day was deleted and the other says my account was banned and all my artwork was deleted😢! They said that I was violating Sparks rules! They didn’t even  warn me or suspend me! Talk about unfair! They just completely deleted my account! I lost all my drawings and all my followers!  Now I can’t do sparks with my friends! I will not be getting another account since I am mad at sparks double standard! All in all Christians beware!!!!

### 1/5 — Why Moriah!!!🤬🤬🤬

*2023-03-01, version 1.3.1*

This app was amazing to me I gotta share my art with so many different people,but then I got a notification one day that it was intended for ages 13 and up…🙁 I brushed it off because there wasn’t anything that really is necessarily made up for 13 up 😅and later they added a text limit, (and it was very short, about two sentences could fit)
, which made everything 12 times harder and they got rid of images!!!!!😡😡 and a lot of the tools in Spark are very outdated and basic so I like doing my art and different apps and then using the image tool to show them to people so I could actually use my real scale,😩instead of using the very hard to use tools 😡and I just really limited my creativity and it went against the whole reason why spark is created!!!! and I love Moriah she’s a great YouTuber, 😎but sometimes her products can be very frustrating 😤like a hoodie that I got from her store completely broke, 😨and now this app is busted don’t download it😕😕😕😕

### 1/5 — I really wish this was better

*2022-12-31, version 1.2.1*

I am a huge Moriah Elizabeth fan, that’s why I got this. At first it was fun, the prompts were nice and I loved seeing Moriahs work. (Reason 1) I am a more traditional artist, and even when I do digital art, I use a different app. You can’t post pictures. I understand “keeping the app age appropriate “ but please let me post my other art. (Reason 2) The digital drawing thing itself (in the app) is UNUSABLE. It’s super glitchy and is just awful. I know Moriah wanted this to be simple, but this is just so bad. I would love to see layers maybe and also please let us rotate and zoom in without having to use a “tool” (reason 3) Why is this even a social media? I love the idea of it but it’s IMPOSSIBLE to gain any social attention. The only chance of someone finding your work is if they see it the SECOND you post it. Moriah is probably the only one with any status and I think we all should have a chance at it.
Please fix these things because I am really close to deleting this app and I really want to keep it for Moriahs sake.

### 1/5 — Good idea but really bad execution

*2022-11-14, version 1.0*

Me and my sister made a list of issues •The app glitches, creating an unintentional mark that you can’t get rid of. •You can’t erase anything after saving and going back to edit later. •To zoom in, you have to click a button when you should be able to zoom in at any given time. •There is a limit to the amount you are able to zoom in/ zoom out. •It would be nice if you could resize or move your drawing in any way in relation to the canvas. •When you save a drawing, go back and edit, and save again; it creates an additional drawing. •It would be nice if there were other options for glitter, lights, and vines. •The paint bucket tool doesn’t fill in any areas, only lines. •No option to draw without a prompt. •Brush/eraser size scale should be visible on the screen at all times. •There should be an outlined circle to show the width of your brush stroke. •The brush scale doesn’t accurately depict the size of the brush. •There are too many steps to get to certain tools, ex. paint bucket/ zoom in. •It’s very difficult/ confusing to find where to search for other users (had to watch a video for reference). And still haven’t figured out how to start a co-creation. •All day today it has been taking forever to load, and when it finally loads, it looks like there’s nothing there. None of my artwork, or other creators. (I have been using other internet things just fine, it’s only this app)

### 2/5 — You need to read this!!

*2023-04-30*

Okay so when I got this app it was amazing I can write little self notes and a drawing next to it with themes I could add pictures on it to show my artwork that I made at home and I made a Cute little name and picture that was my profile and my cousin played with me and I gained 100 followers at that point and I was so excited and I was one of those people who posted a lot of art some self notes and some things about myself and then like 1 month later you couldn’t show pictures and I was like that doesn’t matter then a couple weeks later you could only write 5 words and that’s it on your drawings so at that point I was a little annoyed so I made posts that they should get rid of that but nobody made anything better in fact worse last month they banned my profile that was a cute little picture for no reason it was nothing inappropriate and deleted a lot of my posts I did nothing to deserve that oh 50 hours of work in the garage then I boycotted the app and didn’t go on it at all I’m still really mad and if you guys don’t change this your loosing a lot of people who played this which means less money from people buying these virtual stickers the Maria or however you spell her name had been my favorite YouTuber since I was little and now I'm just really mad at this pls change this I would really appreciate it and so would thousands of people too

### 2/5 — Let me be honest

*2023-01-31, version 1.2.3*

I honestly love Moriah but this app isn’t meeting my expectations, see I understand apps have glitches but my Spark app has an outrageous amount of them.  I go in and all my creations are gone, it still said I had followers though, I go in and BOOM it told me to start creating meaning I had no followers or creations, go to following, same thing. Another thing that annoys me is the fact that they removed the image button which I see possible reasons on why they could have done it, but at the same time I like to be able to look at art and take inspiration but it’s hard to do when you can’t put images on the drawing! Oh, and how am I supposed to put pictures of my cat >:( now thats just mean. My cat is adorable. But in all seriousness this app could improve but overall a fun app. (Please fix those glitches though! Oh and don’t worry all my sparks are back).

### 3/5 — Good, but a demotivating problem

*2023-12-18*

I love this app as a beginner artist. Super easy to use and fun prompts. It has also connected me with people that like the same things as me. But, there is a problem that I really need to be fixed in order to enjoy the game completely.
So, one night as I was doing a spark, I was almost done and suddenly it went back the the screen I went to the prompt on and I lost all my work! Idk what I did and I was super sad.
It happened again a few days later and I was making a person,(Which is really hard for me, like Moriah) and I was pretty proud of it. It looked kinda good,( For my own standards) and all of the sudden I lost my work. :(
Idk if it’s something I did, like if swiping up or down deletes the spark, but it’s just demotivating and not fair. And I can’t find my work, there’s no way the save it. Maybe there should be a place to save a draft or a section in your account to save and finish later to prevent this problem. 
Again, everything else I love, I have never seen anything inappropriate or offensive and I am able to create art that I like and find people who are also interested in the same things. But this issue is sad and makes me worried about all the sparks I try to make.

### 3/5 — Good, but needs some fixing up!!

*2023-07-27*

I think Spark is a pretty good app! However, there are a couple problems with it that should be looked into. The first issue I have come across is the absence of an image button. When this app was first created, there was an option to insert an image onto your artwork, but it was soon removed (most likely due to inappropriate content). Although I understand the need to take away this feature, it disappoints me that the privilege to use it was removed from users who did nothing wrong. Now, I cannot share artwork that I made on Procreate or on paper in real life. The second problem I noticed relates to the color selecting tool in Spark. This feature is definitely a quite useful one in the app. So, when I realized there was something wrong with it, I was very disappointed. Frequently, when I press the button to access this tool, the selector immediately moves to the very top left corner of my device, and the screen completely freezes. I then have no choice other than to restart the device and pray that my artwork was saved (which, sadly, it sometimes isn’t). It could just be poor placement of the color selecting button, but either way, this bug should be looked into. To conclude, this app is overall quite enjoyable, but some issues take away from the experience. Thank you for your consideration!! ❤️

### 3/5 — I lost my work plus glitchy plus homophobic persons???

*2023-07-04*

I like spark but there’s a big problem with the app I went to a color to paint and then the other color covered all the art I made ruining it and when I went to reverse it it just ruined the art even more and I got upset plz fix this problem I would give it five stars if it didn’t have so many problems btw it has my problems I am more a paper and pen artist than I am digi artist so I am mad that they removed  the image inserter because I had so cute pap art but I couldn’t show it because they removed the feature 😢spark is SO glitchy it’s like that awful cyberpunk game I can barely do anything I’ll be shocked to not see one glitch edit I can praises this app for not banning gay and trans 🏳️‍⚧️ people which is really nice 👍 there was a review that said they remixed and crossed out lgbt flag I got really upset I’m glad they got banned there name was strawberry bunny after all they were breaking the rules of the app so they just were meant to get banned but I don’t like that moriah gets all the status and stuff this was suppose to be short but did a rant lol anyway fix the problems and make sure people are not being racist or homophobic and then I maybe would have gave it 5 stars ⭐️I also don’t that it’s age restricted 🚫 just delete stuff like bad persons and some times persons get banned for no reason and stuff anyway this all the issue with spark 🔥

### 5/5 — Its hard to explain.

*2024-02-14*

( everything I say is asking for an update including one of these ???)Hello! As the star system says it is a five star for me BUT I do wish there was a comment section because I wish I could say something like encouraging ya know instead of the mind-blown-pickle now there’s nothing wrong with that but that’s something else, also maybe being able to decorate the main room, and also like procreate being able to take the screen twice to remove your last stroke, and maybe more brushes??? Also there’s a lot of stuff that you need money for and it’s really hard to draw on here with a small screen like I have maybe use procreate as an example of what I’m saying also idk if I’m just a newbie even though I’ve been on here for a year but I really wish you could use a picture from your photo album, back to the decorating the main room I can tell your KINDA already in the process of doing that so overall I love this game but do please consider these updates I don’t know it could get more people to download but yeah thanks for taking the time to read this! P.S maybe when we are looking at someone’s art gallery maybe you could update it so we could just press on one art piece and then just scroll ya know?? Thanks for your time!!

### 5/5 — This app is pretty good.  Written by BelannaTheMal

*2023-12-24*

Hello! Spark creative play is an amazing app, the community is wonderful, the daily sparks are pretty good, and the Spark team is really kind and helpful! I see a lot of people who write reviews complaining about things like the in-app purchases, the need to put your email address to make an account, and the age restrictions. They need to have in app purchases because the spark team needs to make money because developing an app takes a lot of effort and they update it fairly frequently. You need an email address to set up your account so that they can verify that the account belongs to you and for safety/ security. Spark IS a social app and there are laws that restrict under 13 year olds from using social media. Have a nice day/night!✨ Edit: I see a lot of people complaining about things like sparkles and sparkscriptions,(and the things asking to consider buying them) but the spark team needs to make money to add new features and to keep Spark ad free. The spark team is amazing and they spend so much time working on this amazing app and this app has helped so many people. I know people find the introduction of sparkscriptions annoying but I would hate if spark had to have ads

Edit 2: there are people saying that the app “costs money “. It DOESNT. Spark functions completely fine without paying any money. No money is required.

Ok so I’m kinda Obsessed.. I started using it yesterday and I’ve already made several artworks! But I think if you could add these few things to make it better (speaking of add, there are no ads! Which is amazing especially for a free game!) first things first, I think adding more pickle emojis with different expressions would be great. Also, it would be nice if we could add more layers to the drawings. And one more thing, i think adding more activities that you don’t have to wait for. (Like if you want to do a multiple creator thing? Like copycat and the other one I forgot the name was..) you have to wait for them to pop up. But other than that, I love it! And these things are completely optional if you don’t have time or energy. They are just suggestions to perhaps improve the game. (Especially that last one it’s completely unnecessary!) but also not to mention, why is it such a hassle to get in? And why can’t it be all ages? I can see you and the developers really put blood sweat and tears into this, and I think it’s a great creative platform, but there are a few improvements to be made. But overall I think it’s a nice game to get your creativity started ☺️you should definitely get this! Then again sometimes it doesn’t let you in or say your in an unsupported area. But overall, great game! (By the way im a fan of ur yt)

### 5/5 — Amazing community and app

*2023-09-23*

I have been on spark for several months and it has helped me see that, my art has value and it has also helped me improve my art and my confidence. The community is super honest, supportive, and talented, I love that and treasure it.  Also getting a fanbase is very slow this can annoy people and be disheartening ,I am a very very small creator but I do have some very supportive followers and that means the world to me. I really enjoy that spark is supportive of some sensitive topics that some people hate ,it’s really nice to see people expressing themselves. Not to say spark doesn’t glitch here are two glitches I have come across 1 an undoable dot appears and becomes a line that you can undo 2 not saving. My main problem is the age restriction I understand why it’s there but I think for younger children you could have a restricted version where you can only see your own personal creations. I also think you could lower the age restriction down to around 10-11 instead of 12-13. Still I love spark and hope it continues to grow. -@Dandelionfox

### 5/5 — An absolutely AMAZING app!!!

*2023-09-05*

There’s so many reasons why I love this app!!! The community is so welcoming and sweet and I’ve made so many amazing friends on here :D I also really love how much the developers care about the users!! You can give suggestions or just ask the developers questions and they pretty much always respond! I never come across anything inappropriate which makes this great especially for younger users. If there’s ever any bullies on this app, they immediately get banned which is awesome! Spark also got me back into art! Before spark I was in a really deep art rut and I hardly ever drew or painted but this brought my creativity back and helped me improve my art SO much, even my traditional art! I can really see my skill improvement by just looking at my first few creations on Spark. The daily prompts really inspired me and gave me that little push I needed to make art❤️ Spark gave me so much confidence in my art as well. If your unsure whether to get this or not, just go for it!!! Thanks for reading this (kind of long) review, have a great day/night💕

### 5/5 — Amazing app! 5 stars! Just a few suggestions for the creators.

*2023-08-29*

I loveee sparkkkk! It’s so amazing and fun! But there are a few things that I’d change, but I’ll talk about the good things first. I love the app! It has some really fun prompts! And your creations can be seen by other creators! Now for the stuff that I would change…first of all, I think this would probably be hard to do, but I think possibly would be nice to add some other brushes, and also make it so you get to use more than 5 layers. With the layers, it’s obviously an improvement from the original (not being able to use layers at ALL) but I still think it’d be nice. And another thing I’m a little bit upset and confused about is spark’s new look. They changed how things look, I’m used to the original blue and white color scheme. And I liked the original. And it looked like it was Moriah's app. But now, it just looks…different? Obviously the creators thought it needed a new look for some reason. But I’ve seen some other sparkler’s, and they don’t like it either. If one of the creators or Moriah happens to see this, I just want to say that I’m not a massive fan of it 😅. To be honest, I think it’s just confusing, the things that we were used to being in a specific place, has now changed. So please change it back 🙏. I went on a little rank there sorry😅. Anyway, that’s pretty much all. Thanks for reading! And I hope you have a great day/night!!

### 5/5 — Amazing drawing community! :D

*2023-06-23*

I love how this app works, It’s just a fun way to start drawing for the day! And after I started posting I felt very welcome in the community, and resently I sent out an idea request and people ACTUALLY replied! I really appreciate that! Also, the app itself is just as amazing, There isn’t anything like “streaks” to make you feel unmotivated if you miss a day, there isn’t really a testing system, it’s just overall great!
I do have some suggestions for the drawing presses itself though, but I completely understand that this isn’t meant to be like a fantastic drawing program, But I do think if you could make the fill bucket work better? Right now it only fills spots I’ve already colored and I just don’t like the way it works. And if you could add an eye dropper tool? I know about the custom pallets, but something I don’t expect to need a color again but then I do and it’s gets frustrating sometimes, or I’ll misclick the colors and change it to something I didn’t need 
But these are kind of minor and they don’t change how I view the rest of this app, but I would really appreciate one of these changes! :D

### 5/5 — Just a Couple Suggestions :)

*2023-06-10*

I absolutely LOVE this app and it has helped cure me of my boredom during the summer break. I just have a couple suggestions to help the app be the best it can be.
  First, I feel like it would be a lot easier if your artwork would automatically save just in case your battery dies in the middle of working on your artwork or something similar happens. Or maybe there could be a save button so that you don’t have to finish your entire artwork at once. There could also be a “drafts” section at your profile page where all your unfinished artworks are.
  My other suggestion is that maybe there could be a “lines” feature. When you are drawing on Spark, there is a place where you can get shapes, stickers, Magic, backgrounds, and overlay, and I love that! But I always have trouble drawing smooth straight or curved lines because of my shaky hands, so maybe there could also be a place to get lines.
  That’s all my suggestions! I truly love this app, and look forward to how improved it could also be in the future. :)

### 5/5 — Amazing but..

*2023-05-20*

I love the app! It’s fun to draw and to see others drawings as well. Although, I do think there could be other things that could be added/fixed? When ever I’m drawing something and I use the zoom tool my screen will freeze for some reason…I use the app on a tablet so I can just zoom my app screen in and out and it’ll work again. But I can’t imagine somebody using it on a phone who wouldn’t have that ability… it had happened to me once on my iPhone and I had to go out and back into the app, so when I came back in my drawing was gone… Another thing is when ever I click out of the color spectrum sometimes it kicks me out of the canvas and I lose my drawing that way… I think it would also be better if maybe layers could be added? As well as saving recent drawings? So when you go out of the app and go back in, it goes back to your last canvas so that you can continue your last drawing. I hope you guys see this and would greatly appreciate taking some of the recommendations I’ve given ^^! Have a great day!

### 5/5 — Love it! Few things to maybe add?

*2023-05-02*

I can tell Moriah put LOTS of hard work it’s this creative space. Somehow I haven’t come across anything inappropriate, or stuff like that. Which I feel like is a great thing especially for young users. But it also provides much freedom with your art. I don’t feel that stuff that doesn’t need to be taken down, is being taken down, which is a nice thing which many apps don’t take account for. When you work hours on a painting, only for it to be taken down. She’s found a nice in between. The basics of the game are great, and easy to follow, and it’s an overall good vibes app. I like that there are users of all art levels, not just beginners, and not just pros, again, a nice in between. 👌 I have a few suggestions you could add? #1 smaller eraser. The eraser works great, hear me out 😂, but it doesn’t go as small as the brush does, which makes it hard to get into tight areas. #2 color wheel?? On the color options provided, it’s almost impossible to get de-saturated colors, which are essential for drawing. The only way to get them is to layer different color opacities, and then when you have to erase it, you have to try to match the color and eh bleh no. That’s my main issue with this app is the color limitations. It has MANY colors of course, but again, the desaturated colors 🤌🤌 (which obviously isn’t Moriah’s style 😂) anyway. I absolutely LOVE the app, and I’m excited to see where she goes with it! Highly recommend :D
