Itd b nice if there was a way to find out what colors r used for patterns that I didnt make myself, in case I'd like to make it in real life. As for the ones I make myself, its b nice if I could edit the results. Let's say the pattern is suppose to only have 3 colors but to make it more accurate looking, I had to go with the 32 color scheme, so I'd like to b able to change the extra colors to the actual colors for the ones I wanna do in real life and maybe hang on my wall or give them away.

I love this app! The patterns are beautiful! It is very realistic! I've tried others and the thread was plastic looking and fake. The patterns have 2 zoom-in features, one smaller and one more magnitized. You can pick the colors easily; and just holding down on the color swatch will take you to the right stitch on the board. This company is great! plus everyday you get free 25 cash to buy more patterns. I love it!

Love the game, but it takes FOREVER to get more $ to buy new pics! Wish you got more $ when you logged in for your "daily $." & wish they offered MORE FREE pictures. Like 2-3 FREE new pictures a week!! (Or let us pick 2-3 off list if 5-6) Also would like if you could create more pics a day for free, like maybe 2 custom pictures you can create daily. Other then that, I love & enjoy this app/game. I've tried others and didn't like them at all!!

It's really great, it helps pass time when I need to wait for things. Lately, I don't know if it's my phone or what, but the adverts haven't been loading up. It'll bring up the loading advert thing then it will get stuck and I've tried waiting for it load something but it shouldn't take super long to load. I would like to have this fixed if possible.

I love the game it's so fun and it passes time I like how you can make your own pictures and the controls are great! But I have one problem. It takes so long to build up the cash, if you don't buy the money packs it takes forever. I've been making multiple patterns a day for 3 weeks and I don't even have 2,000 cash yet!😢 I'm sorry if this made it seem like I'm being rude I just bothers me.

I had this years ago but stopped playing. I recently downloaded it again and it's different. Used to be easier to pinpoint color areas especially when you don't have a lot left. I also use a stylus and you can't do the pinch to move around using that. So, if you can figure out a way to move around easier I'll try again but I doubt that will happen. 🤷🏻‍♀️

I really enjoyed this game and found it super relaxing but the ads are getting to be too much. I get you have to make money, but it's already essentially a pay-to-play game because there's no way to make decent in-game cash completing patterns, especially since ones you create yourself only earn you 10 cash and packs can easily cost over 4,000. Even a large pattern will only get you 200-300 cash, and with only 10 patterns in a pack, eventually you can't buy more unless you pay real money or buy exclusively on sale. But then clicking through 5-6 popups in the game started, which was annoying but something I could love with. But having ads pop up while I'm playing the game and in the middle of a pattern is where I draw the line.

I previously rated this app 5 stars at the beginning of last year, and my only real complaint was that the cash output was kinda low, but still reasonable with the occasional ad for more cash. However, just one year later the state of the app is horrendous in comparison, ads are too common and obscenly intrusive. I just want to make cross-stitch patterns of my own images, give me a paid version of this app with no ads, higher cash output, bigger sizes, and more colors. I'll gladly pay for it.

This is the 1st color by number game I ever played on my phone. It's still my favorite. The controls, plus I can organize my pictures into folders, the number count on each color is listed & most importantly, no ads. I really hope you never have to put ads in. I can play for long periods of time, never wanting to quit (until my fingers give out... lol), but ads ruin the continuity of the game for me. That's what happened to me with Pixel Tap. I still play that, but not as long or as often.

A nice "paint-by-numbers" style game with lots of good variety in choice of patterns and gameplay options. Still, it's nowhere near as relaxing as Pixel Tap because of the timed element and the unforgiving interface that records even one accidental tap as an error (which can be undone, but does it count against your score?) -- too easy to do due to the tiles' small hitbox sizes and cumbersome means of moving to another section of the pattern without being able to "lock" it against taps.

DEEPLY disappointed that this app suddenly decided to quit on me. Repeated contacts with the developers goes unanswered. I have dropped a lot of money for it, but the continued lack of response and frustrating inability to play a game that I once enjoyed, now thwarts me. I tap on it, it sends me to Facebook. I shouldn't have to be connected to FB to play this game. So frustrated! Ready to drop it! Is that what the developers had in mind when then wouldn't (won't) respond to customer complaints?

This use to be the best app for cross stitch, but recently went to ad based model. Now, after spending real money to purchase more patterns, you have to sit through annoying ads every few minutes to actually spend your money or pay to remove them as well. No longer fun or enjoyable due to ads constantly. Too many free versions out there for the amount of ads this one makes you view. After spending money should be able to complete patterns without ads without additional payment. No longer fun.

Update: Constant ads are NOT from secondary app running. I'm also pretty annoyed at the amount of coins per puzzle. It seems really low. I need to look for a different game. Constant ads that I refuse to pay real $$ to remove. This was never an issue for many years. Now I get an ad every 5-7 minutes. I just want to relax and do the puzzle, not stop constantly because your app has intrusive ads.

I've played for years now, but they've decided to use AI models to make art for their new packs, despite the environmental impact creating even one AI image has. Gallons and gallons of fresh water being wasted on this cheap garbage. They've been making new packs for years and never needed to stoop this low for new content. A sign of bad things to come, I'm sure.

I really enjoy the smooth controls and the easy to glide coloring mechanism. That also lends itself to built in physical therapy for my hands after having a mild stroke. I have to concentrate on not letting the easy glide action color the wrong pixels. Being an undiagnosed OCD sufferer has it's good and bad aspects. Lol!

I've loved this app for years and had it on multiple devices throughout my time using it. Unfortunately, I was forced to uninstall since they have decided to use AI in their store. I'm not spending the credits I've gotten in-game for some low effort, poor quality trash. Thanks for the memories, I guess.

I've had this app for several years, and this review is overdue. Awesome controls, once you get used to them. Multiple customizing options as far as the layout, I prefer the legacy look and feel, though the new layout is good too. Absolutely no forced ads. Can use personal pictures for free or upscale personal pictures with in-game currency. You can accrue in-game currency several ways and at least 3 pictures a week just by logging in daily. All the modern versions pale compared to this app.
