ToonPAINT App Reviews

This WAS a great app. Keyword: WAS.

Update: Hadnt used this in a while, but needed to trace a photo so I opened it up and… oh WHAT HAPPENED?!? The interface is pure junk now. Controls overlap, in an effort to make icons more "hand-drawn," they now look awful and rushed, even text alignment in buttons is broken (the label text rides too high inside the button space). The tracing features are still great, but actually GETTING to them and adjusting them are painful and frustrating. This used to get 5 stars from me. Thats how far this app has fallen. See below for my former glowing praise of this app, if you doubt me. ------------- Well, the developers listened and addressed just about every major issue I and others had with the first release. Just bumped the ranking from 4 to 5 stars as a result. The quality/fun/cost balance is just too good. Can you find painting apps with more features or cheaper? Probably. But this just does what it does so well. ------------ original review below ---------- I cant dispute the other reviews: this app does a great job of outlining photos in a style that looks organic, and does it quickly, too. The downsides are what some have already mentioned: - no undos means constantly switching back and forth between colors to hide mistakes. And youll make some since painting with your finger on a screen this small is a lesson in patience. - get used to using two fingers to pan around. One finger *always* applies paint. - its a pity the resolution isnt higher, only because as it stands, zooming in gives you no better precision because the blockiness of the brush just gets bigger, too. - one bug in my current testing: taking a photo while in the app results in a crash every time when trying to render after the shot is taken. Importing from the Camera Roll is fine, though. But this is a really FUN app, and shows remarkable potential that, with a few tweaks would get a full 5 stars. Buy it if youre okay with spending $2 on essentially a slick-looking doodle app.

If you go to "additional features" and "restore purchases" you get back the features you paid for before the update. ...BUT if youre on the paint screen and touch "undo, pan zoom, or brushes" you cannot access the paint pallet again! The "undo, pan zoom, or brushes" menu stays in the way! This was a cool app until this happened. Please correct this.

This is terrible.... The update has ruined this app!

Now I have to pay again for paint after I already paid before Dont update!

I used to love this app, but with the new update, the controls are no longer at the bottom. There is no intuitive way to figure out how to access the controls. When you finally are able to magically get one set of controls to appear, you cant tap on any others. Please fix this, thank you.

Annie FIX MY APP! Its one of my favorites! Its charging me all over again and the ink lines wont show up! Lets go people! 3 stars because I still like you...

As everyone else has stated, the iOS 7 update ruined this app. Its completely unusable. DELETED.

"PLEASE FIX THE APP" that is all for now

I paid for this three times and toonpaint wants more to use it

I used to use this app all the time, and still might, but its been a few months or more since I did last. I tried using it after the iOS 7 update and found that my inklines tool options couldnt be seen and gave up while trying to show a friend. I was going to say something about how surprised I was when I found I had to purchase features I had always used then realized I had already purchased them so Ive come to terms with that. The inklines tool problem is still there, though at least easier to see. Do the developers not use the app after making changes?

I take back all the foul things I said.... Thank you for fixing your app

This app is honestly one of my favorite photo apps and I have alot. Pay .99 for the color generator its well worth. It will color your photo for you. Amazing.

Why am I being asked to pay for the extras again when Ive already done so? This app no longer works properly after IOS update. Please fix this ASAP! Used to be a very good app!!

Wow !!!! Awesome app Cool effect !!! Definately worth the price !!!!!

This company suddenly changed the name of included features and made them "in app purchases". So those of us who purchased the app with these features are now being charged two more times to use features we have already paid for. Completely dishonest business practices that amounts to nothing less than theft.

Just used to generate a bunch of printouts for my niece to color. Worked perfectly

I really like using this app to animate my pics , Would highly recommend

Hard to work with and they pimp you for more money at every click.

Wish I used it more because I do like this app a lot.
