### 4/5 — I AM SO MAD ABOUT TINT BECAUSE IT RESTARTED ME

*2026-04-01, version 4.2*

It would not stop restarting me over and over again ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh🤬😡

### 3/5 — How I like TINT

*2025-12-25, version 4.2*

Maybe you should make it a bit easier on Zen mode.

### 4/5 — really fun but there’s a snail

*2025-12-01, version 4.1*

This game is super satisfying and I enjoyed the first few levels. Totally relaxing. But I opened it today and there was a snail crawling (or whatever snails do, slither?) across the screen. And it just didn’t go away. I couldn’t handle it so honestly I had to delete the app but that’s on my own phobia.

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-11-22, version 4.1*

Best game I have ever played! I completed one book in one one day! Brain games are my favourite. This is a really awesome game!

### 5/5 — Relaxing

*2025-11-07, version 4.1*

I play every night before bed, very calming experience. I would recommend to anyone who has trouble sleeping and needs something to do when books aren’t doing it anymore. Also all the pages are pretty easy to mix!

### 4/5 — Fun

*2025-10-31, version 4.1*

I think there should have a limit to hints

### 4/5 — please fix

*2025-10-17, version 4.1*

I like the app; pretty and more challenging than it first appears. -->> Please fix the loading! Using ipad mini with ios 26, on loads halfway, then must be closed down and reloaded. Works the 2nd time and never the 1st. Tomorrow: same problem, rinse repeat. Annoying. 
(fwiw, the Stitch app has the same problem, since ios 26 install.)

### 3/5 — No as instinctive as their other games

*2025-10-06, version 4.1*

As someone who had been doing watercolour as a hobby for years this game isn’t as instinctive as the others. I went through the tutorial and even then I had a difficulty understanding what they wanted me to do with it because a lot of it goes against what watercolour painting is actually like. Which is a shame because I absolutely loved their other games

### 2/5 — Fun but annoying

*2025-08-23, version 4.1*

On 2nd book and can’t beat the level

### 5/5 — Love it 🥰🩵🩵🩵🩵

*2025-07-29, version 4.1*

I love this game so fun as soon as I downloaded it I knew from the second I played the first level I had fell in love with the game! Also I would recommend playing the game it’s super fun and simple!

### 5/5 — Completely Relaxing, fun colour-mixing Levels, amazing.

*2025-07-20, version 4.1*

Love it.

### 5/5 — Fun but…

*2025-07-01, version 4.1*

The game is fun and relaxing but I have only 2 complaints. 1: The books get way too hard too quickly. 2: I think the hints are a little hard to understand the right path. That’s it.🫟🖌️

### 5/5 — (Steam)

*2025-06-25, version 4.1*

Good for stress no WiFi no adds

### 5/5 — W game

*2025-05-30, version 4.1*

No ads, no annoying pay wall just relaxing game with no distractions or pay wall to go to to any other new stuff it’s amazing

### 5/5 — Phenomenal. Zen of watercolor blends

*2025-05-26, version 4.1*

Gorgeous. Elegant. Intelligent. Captivating. It’s not just a beautiful game—it is an engaging (borderline addictive) game to play. It’s also giving me insight on how to make brush strokes flow. I am actually painting beautiful things! The motion graphics on “completing” a painting or challenge are rewarding in and of themselves! Origami flowers butterflies and more fly and flit off the page in joyful celebration of you ur good work :-) ! The realism of the watercolor on artists’ paper is phenomenal. Add in soothing soundscape as a bonus. 
Mostly games that are this well made graphically have lame mechanics — tint is the exception. I truly love everything about it. It’s Minimalistic— yet has tiny details that are just enthralling!! It lets you save & share your “artwork” (in a lovely Polaroid style image). You can redo any level (bc you can solve the color mix but realize it could be prettier so you can repaint it!!) or skip any you don’t like. Zen mode is creative and has little surprises that keep it Zenteresting (as opposed to many games’ zen modes which are just downright zzzzz). I’m really amazed I love tint so much. I am a pretty picky gamer. 

Besides the 3 minuscule picky very slight irritations listed below, this game is as close to perfect as it gets. Tint is one of the best games I’ve played in a long long time. It may be the only one I’ve ever thought was so good it inspired me to  write a serious review. 

Devs: My only teeny tiny 3 complaints are 1. Accessibility. While it has colorblind mode, that’s only the ui, not the directions or icons. The contrast for icons is low and the thin script fonts are very hard to read. You can’t zoom in so you have to guess a lot. Pretty, yes, but at the expense of usability on occasion. But— it’s so intuitive you figure it out quickly. I’d love to see a “tap to read” feature that enlarges the tooltip or icon & description. 
2. The undo button undoes all your strokes. Not one at a time. That’s a bit frustrating if you have only messed up the last one. I don’t think there are enough separate strokes at any given time to warrant a “clear all”  since most of us can tap undo up to 4 times without wishing there was a reset. 
3. The moving page background (especially butterfly section & flower section—those leaf shadows??) makes me dizzy and hurts my ADHD. If you could consider allowing that to be toggled off I would be so appreciative.

### 5/5 — Calm

*2025-03-23, version 4.1*

I love all of the colors

### 5/5 — Get this game if you’re bored!

*2025-03-04, version 4.1*

I love this game. This is the best game ever. I’ve only had it one day and I’ve already finished book one if you are ever very bored you should definitely download this game.

### 5/5 — Good game

*2025-03-03, version 4.1*

Game beaty , relaxing

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Terrible the worst trash

*2026-01-28, version 4.2*

I would give it 0 if I could it is the worst trash in the world and I wish that I never saw it because when I got the app it made a sound that was bee and glitched my iPad so don’t get it

### 1/5 — Not Zen, more annoYen

*2025-05-07, version 4.1*

This game  has annoying sound that if you switch off comes back on and doesn’t allow you to switch. It make you so angry it’s not Zen!!!!

### 1/5 — When you pester me to leave a review after every level

*2024-07-06, version 4.1*

I will rate you as 1 star.
Please let me at least finish a few levels before requesting a review repeatedly.

### 1/5 — This is so STUPID!!!

*2024-02-21, version 4.1*

What a waste of time.

### 1/5 — They refuse to accept your privacy.

*2023-11-14, version 4.1*

The game seemed fine for the first few levels but I had to delete it. I don’t like being tracked and I declined to send them my data. The app will ask you to approve them collecting data with a pop up after every single level. No matter how many times you decline. They don’t take no for an answer and I won’t play their game.

### 1/5 — Choosing to not track

*2023-08-28, version 4.1*

If you chose “ask app to not track” it asks you after every single level you complete. This has to be against some TOS or should be. Uninstalling because I will not put up with basically bullying you into tracking you

### 1/5 — Won’t save my progress

*2023-07-30, version 4.1*

The game is really fun, but I’ve tried 5 times and it refuses to save my progress. Every time I open the game it starts me from the tutorial again. Such a basic flaw should have been caught by the developers.

### 1/5 — Spamming “help us improve Tint”

*2022-11-25, version 4.0*

After every puzzle the game asks you to accept their request to collect data. Decline, and they’ll ask again after the next puzzle. Want to improve Tint? Quit spamming the same message over and over.

### 1/5 — Crashes

*2021-05-07, version 3.7*

Wouldn’t even open fully before crashing.

### 1/5 — .

*2021-03-04, version 3.6*

*2026-04-06, version 4.2*

Relaxing!

### 5/5 — Woo I love this

*2026-02-04, version 4.2*

### 5/5 — I love it!!!!!!!

I love this game soooo much!!!! It is relaxing and great for morning gaming! I love it and highly recommend it!!!!

### 5/5 — A wonderful game only one setback

*2026-01-15, version 4.2*

I got this game today and I think it is wonderful my only setback is I wish you would make it possible to go back one space instead of all of them, but I would totally recommend it for you

### 5/5 — Joyful and relaxing

*2025-12-06, version 4.1*

No timers. No points. Lovely hints and do-over as many times as you like, no penalty. I got tired of stressful competitive games. This one is relaxing, pleasing to the eye, and fun to see the colors mix or erase, and the objects flutter away when the page is complete. Stunning artwork and animations. Can’t say enough how much I love this little escape from life’s stresses!
