Community Insight:
We love this coloring book game. Its absolutely amazing!!! But, if it had an eye dropper option it would be even better. Thats genuinely all it needs and itll be perfect :).
We love the way you guys are doing keep making more fun and entertaining games.
This game was our childhood. So glad we found it again thanks to a TikTok trend.
We love this app, it cured our depression. We love Lan.
This app is the best thing we've ever had.
This game is probably the best we have ever played. The amount of things you can color is unimaginable. There is so many options to choose from. This is the perfect coloring game.
When will it be on other platforms such as android?:( us and our boyfriend wants to do it but he has android.
We made a tiktok on this and colored the page.
This is a really great app to play with! Very relaxing and very fun.
As a kid we used to play this game (just 5ish years ago ) and we used to love it. We finally found it again today.
This game is so fun and every day we come home and get on our phone to color.And we are nine years old.
Been doing these since 2011! Best app out there.
This app is awesome! We love it.
We see all these hate reviews and im siting here like. This game if for KIDS not adolescents or teens. KIDS.
We love this game just wish we could keep track of how many pictures that we have colored.
Good app, interesting templates).
Our daughter has played this game for years, she loves it. However, she is sad there have been no new pictures in a long time. Please make more.
Im in our 60s. This App is so relaxing to use. Love to use the color charts and also to mix your own and color the pictures. Did 75-80 so far and there must be 100s to color. Also, we think this App was free but we paid $0.99 to remove the ads. Well worth the money.
Us and best friend love this coloring at but one this that was brought up was to make the bright colors (hot pink, neon blue) EVEN BRIGHTER to really capture the image we want to color. -thank you.
We think they should add like more cute dogs and add some hello kitty and spider man and Id rate this a 4/10.
Can yall make it so when u color a drawing it shows in the catalog.
If they made it so that you can use half rating s, we would give this 3.5, but 4 is the highest Ill give it. It is a pretty good app, but we do have some critiques. 1. Screen size too small – we have an iPhone XR, and we know this was probably made for phones with a home button, but they should make it fit for phones without a home button, due to the fact that the screen size in phones have gotten a lot bigger. 2. No undo button – instead of having to go to the color picker and pick the color a specific part of the art was, you can just press the undo button. This will be a simple addition. 3. Make the color slider more accurate – what we mean by this is that you should make the end where it gets darker, black. When its on the left side completely, it should be black. Same in the right, it should be white. These are the only problems we have with the app, everything else is pretty good.
We like this app for a mindless little craft to kill some time. BUT we would say it would be nice to have an undo button and maybe a dropper function to use colors youve already created. Also, we completed a dozen and enjoyed looking through them until they just randomly all cleared back to all white. :(.
Its really nice but we wish the designs were the same for both the apple and android version.
We love this app! We just wish there was a undo feature. We know it hasnt been updated in years but maybe just maybe with the TikTok Trend itll encourage just a small update.
It wont let us use the color wheel it just kicks us off when we try to use it and we dont know how to fix it.
We REALLY love this game, but sometimes we are playing it and we will click on one of the pictures that we already completed. So maybe in your next update you should make it so once you finish the picture it will show how you colored it, so you don't click on one you already did.
TikTok made us get it & its been fun!!! We know its a long shot that this app will be updated, as its been 6 years since its been updated. However, as mentioned in other reviews, several things are needed to make this a better functioning app. 1. The color picker recent colors would be the biggest game changer! This has been the most frustrating part 2. Undo button 3. Rather than have images to color at the top, it would serve well to have them be on their own page. Additionally, if you could sort by type. (More of a folder view, e.g., Dinosaurs: each page of dinosaur options).
The reason why we put 3 stars is because we want more devices to be able to use this app because we want to do this color trend on TikTok and we have to use this app to compare these pictures to our friends pictures but our friends dont have iPhones and we really want to do this so can you please update the app to have all devices added to be able to use this app please Im begging you.
This app has create templates and a ton of color options but it is incredibly difficult to use because once you change colors you cant see the color you just used. We feel like there should be a toolbar with recently used colors. Also at the top it makes it difficult to see where you left off because even after youve been working on a piece it stays white at the templates portion.
Whenever we try to purchase no ads, it keeps saying could not retrieve product So annoying.
Buggy, with little features and lots of ads. Also not letting us pay for ad removal? At least the photos are cute and simple, not a lot of ugly mandalas.
Our 3 yr old granddaughter was coloring and a Halloween ad popped up and frightened her to the point of screaming and crying!! What are you doing.
1.)this game/coloring book is amazing because we think the pictures are so detailed and the colors are wonderful. 2.)the creators keep on adding new pictures/drawings so you can color we know that's only two things but this is a very good game and we recommend it to whoever looks at this review.
…. It's one of the only apps that has transcended through all our devices and made it through several upgrades. It's simple. Our 2 year old was able to figure it out (he's now 5). Over all the other coloring apps on our phone and other devices this is the one he and our other two kids go back to time and again. Pictures keep getting added. Last update said there was over 350 of them. We think there was only like 20 when we first downloaded it. Simple color pickers or use the color wheel for infinite color choices. One day we'll sit down and color all the pictures. For now though it's a great app to pass time with.
It is easy and simple so when you are bored play this and you will not be bored.
Great for simple relaxing coloring.
THIS IS DUMB. THIS IS STUPID. We HATE IT. SORRY.
Our five year old loves this app. Has been using it since the past one year and never gets bored of it. She loves using the color palette to fill in the beautiful pictures provided in the app, with her choice of colors. We love this app.
We love it because you can save it and use it for your background and you don't have to use the app to color it you can save it without coloring it and print it out to color it.
We wouldn't judge our Coloring Book Free by its features and finesse – it gets good scores in these two departments. But the ultimate judge is our kid, who really enjoys it, partially for its measured simpleness and graphical elegance. Recently added pictures help, too. And no sooner as our 6-years-old told us that all were coloured than more pics come. The latest updates also included new colour picker which even delighted our now 10-years-old. Keep it on.
We do not like this game it is not fun and people who play it are maniacs.
If you want to color the small things you push the plus. We love this game. It is so much fun and easy! GET IT.
This game is stupid because you try to color something small it ain't coloring so you wear your phone out hitting or tapping the screen but the big stuff you tap and it will color-stupid.
Even though we're 12 we love this app.

This is an amazing app! We love it so much. However we have had the app for a very long time and finished most of the pictures. More pictures!!!! Love the app keep updating.
We're 12 and still love this game had it since we were 7 our 15 year old sister does it too it gets better and better.
This app is literally the best app. No joke. And that's coming from a middle schooler. We could tell it took a wicked long time to make. We LOVED it ever since our friend introduced it to us. It's a great game to play if you a little bored in the car, or your just trying to find a fun app to do without paying like $800.00 for a stupid dress up game or something. Although it takes up quite a bit of our storage space, it's still worth it.
We love this game we always play it when we're bored we know we're 11 and we're a little to old for this but we will still keep playing. Nice job Jeff keep up the good work! :).
