## What is Tapaint?

Tap by tap, your photo becomes a painting.

Tapaint turns any photo into a paint-by-numbers canvas and lets you paint it by tapping. Your own pictures - a holiday, a pet, a face you love - become something you made with your hands, area by area.

HOW IT WORKS
• Pick a photo. Tapaint converts it on your phone in about a second.
• Choose how detailed: Relaxed for big calm shapes, Standard for a faithful picture, Detailed for a long evening, Expert for every shape that matters.
• Tap the areas with the number of the selected paint. Pinch to zoom, tap the paint again to find the next area.
• Finish, and the picture reveals itself - then share it, without a watermark.

MADE FOR PAINTING, NOT SCROLLING
• Numbers that stay readable as you zoom.
• A palette that tells you how many areas each paint has left.
• Progress and time saved with every tap; pick up where you left off.
• Auto-finish when you want to see the result now.

A LITTLE EVERY DAY
• Today's mystery: a random photo from one of your albums, revealed only when you finish it.
• A streak for finishing a painting each day, with rewards along the way.
• One gentle evening reminder, if you want it.

PAINT ON PAPER TOO
• Print the numbered template as a PDF, sized so every number is readable on the sheet.

TAPAINT UNLIMITED (one-time purchase, no subscription)
• As many paintings as you like.
• The Expert level.
• Palette styles: vivid, pastel, sepia - before painting, or applied to a finished picture.
• Sharing and printing without ads. No ads anywhere.

PRIVACY
No account, no server. Your photos are converted on your phone and never leave it. The app works in Airplane Mode.
