where are the treehouses. ???
Theres more and more AI slop and it brings down the app as a whole
I used to be able to hold what I wanted to color but now I can't it sucks.
I am keeping my one star review until they stop using ai generated pictures and apologize for lying about it. I'm quite insulted by the fact that they think people wouldn't notice the blatant ai usage, it's so obvious it's a bit offensive. So to the creators: quit lying to your audience, stop filling your app with slop, and don't comment on this review if you're not gonna fix this problem.
I loved this app until I was unable to sync my progress to my new phone. I contacted customer service via email for a while until they discovered there was no "cloud icon" to sync on either phone - claimed they will send an update. I have to send my old phone back for a trade in and I'm heartbroken I will lose a year of progress. Pretty lame if you ask me.
none of the pictures on here are like those advertised 😒. deleted
Ad Breaks?? Really?? Come on.
where is the poppy playtime chapters pls add them
Still cannot long hold. Bye.
I downloaded via freecash . free cash ripped me off, they are a scam . they make us play for several weeks and keep throwing new hurdles into the mix , before you get your first payment. I have not received a penny for playing your game.
only gotten worse. I get it, need the ads for revenue but when the timer ends for the ad and I continue to get the same ad without a timer that is overkill.
This coloring game used to be a great balance of ads and play time but now is full of ads. There are ads when you open a picture, ads when you try to go back to the library, ads when you pause and resume the session, and now multiple ads during the session. It's become unbearable and I am looking for a new coloring game so I can uninstall this one. Seriously Happy Color?
Been playing this for years now. Number and duration of ads have been ever increasing, ads are harder to close, and now there are forced ad breaks while colouring. There is more AI art being snuck in. Finally, this app has only ever had tepid Pride Month images, but at least it's had something. This year, however, only had a beige, headless image on the last day of the month, telling LGBTQIA+ players that if you stay quiet, colourless, and faceless, you get rewarded with... rainbow socks. Poor!
I have invested so much time in this app that I hate to have to uninstall it. I loved it so much but the ads are now intrusive. it is seriously ridiculous! You dont just have to watch them between pictures, now it gives ads right in the middle of coloring pictures. I would not waste my time downloading this app at this point because you do more ad watching than coloring.
you cannot push the number and get the car to pop up you have to go to the each color and touch it not good
Ads are popping up at bottom of screen now WHILE coloring. Loud and can't mute them or close out of them. Graphics after coloring pics changed drastically when "playing" completed pictures. No longer satisfying. Please change it back!!!
Great way to pass some time. However, the longer you play the more ads you get stuck watching. If it were 1 or 2 I wouldn't mind. But to pop an ad in every 5 minutes, and "breaks". I was on this game to pass time or I'm taking a break from a busy day. For the love of all, get rid of the advertisements. I'm most definitely not one to spend money just to get no ads, especially sine they're still slipped in and intruding. Deleting this app and finding something else.
Started out wonderful, now it's just ad after ad. can't even open the app without an ad. Try to select an item to color ad.
was good until the ads wouldn't let me X out to go back to my painting.
used to love this one but the ads... omg. I get having to watch an ad for a free game but the ads here are too often and too long. I did one picture after installing and gave up, switched to a different game. it's too bad really, the pics and app are great.
why does this annoying music keep coming on suddenly after a few minutes of coloring lately? As if the ads weren't annoying af,now there's this.
