If I sat down to count my reviews of AppStore stuff — well, I have the attention span of a pinecone so I’d probably never get to doing that lol

but this app is maybe the coolest. I started with the basic version and then I guess it was a week or so ago that I decided I wanted the full version and honestly I’m loving it that much more.

At first I had said it was just the simplicity of the app but if I’m being entirely honest — once I started really thinking about it, the mathematics and geometry of it all is anything but simple.

Response from developer

Thank you so much for the positive feedback! I appreciate it and I'm glad you're enjoying the app.

Beautiful

Amazing app. Being able to save to gallery so easily is huge.

I love this app but…

I love this app but there have been a few glitches where when I change colour and try to zoom in the whole design changes to that colour but otherwise it is the coolest app. I just want to be able to change colour

Response from developer

Hi, thank you so much for pointing this out. This is fixed in version 8.5 which is available now. Sorry about that!

How do you reset this?

I was experimenting with the setting and now I can’t get back to making kalidescope images. :(

Response from developer

Hi Abner, it's hard to say exactly what's happening without knowing more, but in general the way to increase the number of folds of symmetry is to tap the symmetry button on the right toolbar (looks like a circle with one or more lines dividing it into sections) and adjust using the slider and button in that drawer. If you're having trouble feel free to reach out directly.

Fun and easy to use

The new (2026) update is very cool and quite sleek. The gallery feature is awesome!

Response from developer

Thanks so much! Glad you're enjoying it.
