āGreat app, no glitches so far.ā
āSo far no glitches.ā
āThis game is amazing! I play it on my iPad with my Apple Pencil, and it works fine with no glitches. However, one little thing that bothers me is that when I'm about to finish the painting, it lags. It might be my iPad, or it could be a bug in the game, so if it's the game, please can it be fixed?ā
āUninstalling app now. The ad for Vegas slots that plays at the bottom of the screen freezes the screen, preventing moving or coloring the picture.ā
āI love this app, but I find that it freezes or kicks you back out every so often.ā
āThe game constantly freezes and crashes now, and it's incredibly frustrating because I really enjoy this game otherwise.ā

āIt's so relaxing and the music is so soothing.ā
āThere is now loud background music playing in this app and can't seem to find an option to turn it off.ā
āI'm rating this app a 2 because I want to listen to music but it does not allow me and restarts the song every time I unpause it.ā
āI loved coloring in this app but it started playing music I did not like so I deleted it.ā

The optimization of the app has received mixed reviews; while some users praise its smooth performance and prompt fixes for previous issues, others report significant problems such as lagging, stuttering, and intrusive ads that detract from the experience. Overall, the app shows potential but suffers from inconsistent performance and aggressive advertising tactics.
āGreat performance.ā
āGame runs smoothly with no problems.ā
āI am grateful to the app developer for paying attention to recent performance problem reports and promptly fixing the problem.ā
āUnfortunately, I had to uninstall the app because of slow performance and freeze-up problems.ā
āBut the lagging, stuttering mess that is this update is the worst.ā
āThey managed to fix the stuttering and filled it with unstoppable full-screen ads with fake close buttons, unmutable music, etc. I don't mind ads, but you don't need predatory ads.ā

The gameplay is generally praised for its smooth mechanics and appealing designs, with many users enjoying the experience. However, frequent ads and notifications detract from the overall enjoyment, causing frustration and potential uninstalls. Despite these issues, some users still consider it one of the best coloring apps available.
āGameplay is great!ā
āThe gameplay is simply great.ā
āGameplay is smooth and the pictures load fast.ā
āThe gameplay itself is fine, nothing unique, but the app spams you with notifications to try new coloring pages.ā
āIf you had fewer ads, and I do mean fewer, then I would rate this a five. I love the pictures and the mechanics, but your ads will make me uninstall it.ā
āAs soon as you started with the ads on the bottom, it freezes the gameplay.ā

The story aspect of the game has received mixed feedback, with some users expressing disappointment over the lack of engaging content and features, such as the inability to access certain pictures and the absence of daily quests. Others appreciate the painting mechanics and the potential for sharing their creations on social media, but overall, there is a call for more meaningful storytelling elements and clearer thematic content.
āI always have waited for a while before rating any game, but so far I am enjoying the painting and hope to continue the quest of a good one.ā
āI love the specials and usually do at least 2 daily, sometimes up to 10, then feed them in my Facebook story to show off lol.ā
āMaybe there could be some daily quests like to finish a picture, or to like 10 things.ā
āThis game is very stupid; most of the pictures cannot open. In fact, to cut the story short, I regret wasting my data downloading this game.ā
āI downloaded this game after seeing an advertisement for a 'black story theme' coloring book, but I haven't seen anything of the sort.ā
āOne suggestion: maybe add a tracing feature so we can sketch our own art with photos to paint a story.ā
