Color Day is a therapeutic paint-by-number game designed to relieve stress. It features a vast collection of unique drawings in categories like Mandalas, flowers, animals, and characters. New pictures are added daily, including special holiday themes for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Players can even recreate world-famous masterpieces by Leonardo da Vinci and Vincent van Gogh. With simple tap-to-color mechanics and a range of helpful hints, it’s a perfect way to express artistic inspiration without the need for complex skills.

82/100

Color Day: Paint by Number is the perfect digital 'decompress' tool. While the App Store is flooded with coloring apps, this one stands out due to its massive variety of daily-updated images and its surprisingly smooth UI. The categories—ranging from Mandalas and nature to famous historical paintings like the Mona Lisa—ensure there is always something that fits your mood. It’s an excellent way to kill time and release some artistic tension without needing any actual painting skills.

The game is designed for relaxation, and it succeeds. The 'tap to fill' mechanic is precise, and the inclusion of hints ensures you never get frustrated looking for that one tiny pixel you missed. While there are quite a few ads in the free version, the 'no watermark' and 'unlimited hints' features in the subscription are a nice perk for serious colorists. It’s a 'dream garden' for anyone looking to quietly enjoy the fun of art from their phone.

Ok I’ve downloaded n colored almost in every color by number app there is in the AppStore and this one is absolutely positively the most smoothest one yet! You don’t have to sign up or in, if you don’t want to, or mess with any complicated settings etc. I’m not even done with coloring my first picture n thought, I really need to give a review for this coloring app! I wish all color by number coloring apps were good like this one. So, Bravo! You’ve found a color by number fan for life 😊🌸!

Love it but….

So it’s a great coloring app, but it would’ve been nice to know you can press areas to be colored for a few seconds and it will highlight with the (gray pattern) automatically. I didn’t know you could do this! Never saw any instructions about it. Saves all that scrolling to #’d color dot!! HOWEVER…..IT FEELS LIKE YOU ARE PRESSING HARD WITH NO RESPONSE SINCE IT TAKES ABOUT 3 SECONDS TO RESPOND WITH GRAYED OUT AREA . I didn’t try it until trying it in my other coloring app, WHICH RESPONDED VERY FAST AN FEELS AS IF I DON’T NEED TO PRESS HARD. So between the ENORMOUS AMOUNT OF ADS & PRESS-FOR COLOR LAG, I GAVE 4 STARS. And no way I am paying $9.99 a month or $4.99 per week to get rid of the ads! That’s just NUTS!! PLUS THERE IS NO SUPPORT CONTACT WHATSOEVER!! WHEN TOU TAKE MONEY FROM A CUSTOMER USING YOUR APP YOU SHOULD BE PROVIDING A CONTACT! I had to come to the App Store, look up the app and search to find where I could post my review. Otherwise you have to use their other obtrusive pop up review prompt!

I was a little iffy but decided to take a chance on it hoping it would be better than the other apps that I have now, and wow, was I surprised as to how much more fun this app is!! I love the fact that it automatically greys the colors instantly, and lets you know where to color next, and how much quicker the bonuses are appearing than the other ones that I currently have!! Much more entertaining!!! Definitely a thumbs up 👍!

Too many ads
Sat Apr 15 2023 White witch 35

I love this app, love the pictures, love the variety. I like fairy houses, interiors, exteriors, landscapes and mandalas. There are a lot of ads, but I wouldn’t pay to eliminate them. One thing I don’t understand, and it might be my old phone, when I finish a picture, the app shuts down and I have to bring it up again. I’m enjoying this app more than any of the others I’ve tried. Too many ads won’t make me switch.

Hurry Up & Fix Please

I love this app. However, right now your app is all jacked up. I have the premium membership, and a few days ago the app suddenly started playing ads. Normally, I just go to the settings and click “Restore” and it fixes it. Now when I click “Restore” it gives a message “Nothing to restore”. Please hurry up and fix this glitch!

Adult color pictures

I loved this app till this started happening Like most of the coloring apps they have apps for porn coloring. To y’all you might not think so but to me its porn. What is wrong with you people, don’t we have enough of this being exposed to us everyday. I don’t mind the other ads but these makes me sick to my stomach. I don’t want to see this. But it’s an app that I have to watch it to get to my next picture to color. If I see more of these I will have to delete this app.

Ads in wrong place
Fri Feb 23 2024 MmeMill

I would love to give this 5 stars but I’m taking TWO stars off because of a frustrating occurrence. When I am tapping to color, a pop-up appears right where I’m coloring, making me accidentally tap on the “watch an ad” part to get hints or something, making me watch one even though I didn’t want to. I absolutely hate, Hate HATE this!!! It is the MOST frustrating thing! FIX this!!
