New: the bead studio Every coloring page comes with a bead pattern in three board sizes, 29×29, 50×50, and 70×70, made for standard 5 mm fuse beads. Follow the pattern bead by bead on the pegboard, or recolor it cell by cell in free edit. Then check the bead list to see which colors you need and how many, and export the pattern as PNG or PDF.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Font Creator Studio at none against Tappy Paint's 1. Font Creator Studio also leads on iOS requirement (13.0 vs 18.0). Tappy Paint's advantage is ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 days vs every 3 weeks). On price and device support there is nothing between them.
