About

Dodo Paint

Read full description

Dodo Paint is a very easy to use paint board for kids that can be used to paint freely or color the images included! Enjoy the time with your children, let them draw, paint and color, learn and express themselves! We've added a brand new bright and colorful UI, completely reworked all the graphics, better user experience, a new simple intuitive color picker with much more colors, 3 pen sizes, an album where all the drawings are automatically saved. Images from the album can be shared outside the app only by solving a simple math problem (to stop children from sharing the pictures without a parent). The app doesn't connect to internet services or websites and doesn't share anything with us or third parties. It is completely safe to use for any child.
