Colors! is a painting application that lets you draw for hours and hours and never have to waist paint, paper, or anything else. Colors! comes with a paint brush(sizable), fading tool, color picker, and more features to assist you in your drawing.
The first thing the developers boast about Colors! is it’s ease of use. And I must say, that is where Colors! shines. I have tried other paint applications available in the app store(and even reviewed quite a few here). . .but this is the first that I could jump in and quickly create something that didn’t just look like something from MSPaint.
Other paint applications try to wedge in as many features as possible(in hopes of selling more copies), but in the end it just makes things cluttered and unusable. With Colors! you have just enough features to make it useful and fun. . .but not too many that it makes you forget where a certain feature is.
I’m not artistic in any way shape or form, so I’m not the best person to review this application. But for a casual user. . .it was fun.
I have been a subscriber to this blog for a long time now and have repeatedly had an issue with your rating schema.
Why do you rate applications that cost more than a dollar or two so poorly in the price category? To me a great drawing application that does exactly what it should do well is easily worth $5. As an iPhone owner and an avid Colors! user I find that giving Colors! a poor rating based on a slightly higher price than most of the other apps in the store is not a good practice.
As an app store reviewer, you should give apps that shine in their individual categories some flexibility and give them the respect that they deserve when they ask for a slightly higher price for quality.
You should also include in your review the fantastic gallery features and keep in mind that a lot of the enjoyment of this app is seeing what other people have made.
Quality apps are simply worth more and at $5, this app is a steal.
