Hitoiro
Read full descriptionHide full description
Mix five pigments to match a traditional Japanese color each day. Hitoiro is a hands-on color craft that takes just a few minutes. Make a color, see how closely it matches, and slowly dye the creature of the month. No art or paint experience is needed. YOUR COLOR OF THE DAY A color tied to Japan's seasonal almanac and 72 microseasons arrives each morning. Read its name and story, choose pigments from the palette, drop them into a dish, and stir with your finger. Lay down a single brushstroke. As the paint dries, your matching score and a small clue appear. ONE MONTH, ONE CREATURE Every color you make dyes one part of the month's creature. The colors build with the season until a one-of-a-kind creature comes to rest on your folding screen. Your Book keeps each day's color sample and result. Days you miss remain blank—because the blank space is part of your month too. MIX FREELY IN ZEN Explore subtractive color mixing without scores or goals. It is a quiet place for mindful play with color, like a short meditation. A MINDFUL DAILY HABIT • The daily experience, records, monthly creature, and sharing are free • No account required • The daily ritual works offline; only purchases and restores need a connection • At most one notification a day • A traditional color connected to Japanese culture and its seasonal almanac, every day The Paint Box (Pro) adds 18 mineral pigments, three papers, three scroll cloths, and three folding-screen papers. Choose your tools and make the Book uniquely yours. The color of the day stays free, always. Terms of Use (Apple Standard EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Hitoiro at none against Obedience's 10. Hitoiro also leads on update cadence (every 5 days vs every 9 days). Obedience's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
