This is just not right. ### 1/5 — Colouring app *2016-02-17* Another colouring app but unfortunately not very good. ### 3/5 — Best coloring app… or used to be *2021-06-10* I have had this app on my MacBook Pro for years and it really good. The iPad version was also great but limited in comparison. Now this last update has brought the iPad version in line with the MacBook with one major issue. The screen freezes and when it is reset all of the colors change in the completed picture. It is pretty much unusable now. I hope there is a fix for this issue soon. Once it’s fixed 5 stars. **Developer response:** Should be fixed now already with the latest update :) ### 3/5 — Not the Same *2016-11-06* Since The app has been updated, I can't tell whether there are any new drawings to color. There doesn't appear to be. ### 4/5 — Lovely and frustrating *2023-02-12* Beautiful colors and relaxing. I love it and bought the full version. But am so frustrated…. Work 45 minutes on a piece and it disappears. This has happened 3 times. I “quit and save” and it is nowhere in my “recent” or other pages. I’ve tried to contact the company but have received no response. I guess if you don’t care about always keeping the work you’ve done, this app is excellent. ### 4/5 — My favorite but an issue popped up *2021-06-07* This is my favorite coloring app, has been for a few years now! Over the last weekend or so, I believe the app was updated, I thought cool, but I not only lost a design I was working on for a gift, the colors put on a new project keep changing when you save the image, then you go back in again. This definitely needs to be fixed, else the app will be useless. Don’t make me go find a new favorite, I like this one!!! **Developer response:** Should be fixed now already with the latest update :) ### 4/5 — Favorite Coloring App *2020-08-21* This is my all time favorite coloring app. I downloaded this on my pc that turns into a tablet, and I just got an iPad and I’m downloading it now. I’ve tried some other coloring apps and I literally can’t stand them. I love the feeling of actually coloring, not when you just click and it fills it in for you. This one is awesome, I do hate that you have to get a subscription to get more pictures. I’ve colored the same pictures too many times to count. May have to think about that later. I would give 5 stars if we had more access to a wider range of pictures to color, but for now just a 4. ### 4/5 — Awesome *2017-01-30* Must have it's like really coloring on paper. No subscription that makes it a 4 the only reason not a 5 is it would be nice to have different brushes other than that this is one of the best. The price is awesome 2.99 and they do put new stuff every few months. I love that I am not being pushed to pay more to get more pictures. Keep up the great app. ### 5/5 — WOW🤩 *2024-12-25* Best game ever!! ### 5/5 — Favorite coloring app *2020-05-06* I usually don’t review apps, but I’ve been trying to find a coloring app that doesn’t just fill in spaces for you. This one is great. It has a tool to fill in if you want but you can also COLOR IT IN YOURSELF 😍 I really like this. Likely to purchase the full app ## Most praised reviews (5 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — This is good *2017-06-09* I like it, got it in my computer first so I decided to try it out, in the end it was really good! I love coloring on digital as my fingers turn bright red and hurt not five minutes after I start coloring ### 5/5 — Great options! *2017-05-14* I really like this app because of the possibilities. It's got great color options and gradients. You can use the tap to color method, the brush, or pencil that has endless possibilities depending on your artistic abilities. The artwork is good and hopefully the developer will continue to add to the collection. Personally I'd like to see a collection of hearts. And finally, I'm happy that this isn't an app with the subscription plan. I'm only interested in the apps with the one-time only fee and this one is quite reasonable. ### 5/5 — Love this app *2016-11-06, version 3.4* So many pages to color. ### 5/5 — Excellent-no subscription required *2016-03-13* Perfect for my new iPad pro and pencil. Free version worked perfect so I paid $2.99 for the extra pictures. All the functions worked on the free version. I refuse to pay for a subscription. Pictures choices are good on the free and paid version. Able to use Apple pencil for shading just like regular coloring. Relaxing when I do not want to create a new drawing of my own. Some building and structure pictures would be a great addition. ### 5/5 — New Find Coloring App *2016-02-10* I just stumbled onto this coloring app, colored one free pic and enjoyed it. It's def worth the small price they ask. Has a huge palette color wheel of any color you could imagine. Hope it holds true as far as them adding more pics monthly.
