I Subscribed to EVERY Adult Coloring App to find the Ultimate BEST Digital Coloring App! 

Here's the blog post! sarahrenaeclark.com/best-adult-coloring-apps/ Sorry it's so late! But this has a lot more info and a huge breakdown of the features of each app, plus links to find them on the App Store and Google Play.

Thank you for uncovering the copying of color palettes! I’m the Product Manager of Pigment and we create and name all of our palettes, so they’re all completely original. That’s so unfortunate that other companies are copying our palettes because it takes a lot of work for our artists to curate them!

I didn't try as many apps as you did, but I tried quite a few when I first got my iPad. Most of them didn't allow for much creativity or individuality when it came to coloring. I ended up settling on Pigment. With the yearly subscription, it's relatively inexpensive and there are so many coloring pages to choose from. I found it to be the most versatile, allowing me to be as creative as I want to be. I love coloring the grayscale images, as well, which I haven't even tried in an actual coloring book yet. I love the different brushes and the fact that Pigment has a RU-vid channel with lots of tutorials for digital coloring that has allowed me to learn some really cool techniques.

You have sooooo much patience lol 😂 “how are you feeling?” “Bored” 😂

Really don't miss to unsubscribe. It might get really expensive otherwise. Maybe put an reminder in your calendar. Thanks for throwing yourself in and make yourself through the jungle of the App Store

Me: can't decide between 3 types of milk at grocery store Sarah Renae Clark: signs up for ONE HUNDRED coloring apps and figures out the best one. Well done, Pigment. You deserve it.

BLOG POST: I’m running a bit late this week, so I’ll work to get the blog post up with the final 12 apps and the full review over the weekend! Thanks for your patience! I hope you found this video entertaining and useful!

Anyone else want Sarah to develop a coloring app?!?! Lol. But seriously

Happy Color is my favorite coloring app. I like that I can't choose the colors, so I don't have to think, just color. I wish they had more simple pictures, most take a long time to complete

I’ve tried a couple of these, and as a 14 year old who is a free user, I’ve found that Recolor is the best for me. It’s really easy to use, and I think that it’s better than pigment for me. Then again, pigment frustrated me because I was already used to using Recolor and it was very different 😂

Her favorites starts at 16:58 start My Top 4: 1. Chroma 19:30 2. Recolor 20:17 3. Colorfly 20:53 4. Pigment 21:30

Thank you so much!! I've been looking for a coloring app that was more than just click and fill, but I gave up after hours of searching. I truly appreciate your honest reviews, time and money spent.

I'll be honest, I love Happy Color because I struggle with color theory and it has really helped me to develop a better understanding.

Thanks for all your hard work, Sarah. We appreciate your dedication and patience, in giving us so much information 💕

I've tried Color Therapy but found that the learning curve was a bit high. And I just wanted to get in there and have fun. I have experience with digital art, but it was always with layers in Photoshop. I still think I would get the hang of it with a bit more time and effort. But I really want Pigment now, if I spelled that right. I like that I can key the hex numbers from your Coloring Catalog, as I love it! It is so great for inspiration. I have to give you props for trying all those apps, so we don't have to waste our time and money. Hope you got your many back. Thanks!

Very useful and have tried many of the ones you did and came up with the same results! BTW I got your planner and it is AMAZING!! Thanks for all you do!!

I play a lot of simulation apps so advertising coloring apps that has assigned colors wasn't a good introduction to digital coloring books since I do like to color more freely. You showed some really cool coloring apps that I never thought exist, realizing that what was shown to me was more than color assignments. I still like coloring my own drawings but it just feels nice to know that the coloring community can find a friend wherever they go on social media. edit: a friend with similar hobbies. (tOtaLlY nOt inTo CoLoRiNg bY tHe wAy)

Thanks a bunch for doing this video. It seems like whenever I have a coloring question you've got a video on it. It's awesome to know someone else is just as random as I am...lol! Thanks for doing the leg work, now on to coloring!

I love this! I’ve used Lake because it feels like a personal experience, mindfulness focus is my favorite!

Yes...everybody wants your money! I hope you were able to get out of all of those apps! Wow! That was so fun. I had to watch again! I think I would enjoy one of these apps, but choosing the right one could be really hard. Thanks again, Sarah!

I like Happy Color (the second app you found) because it's so under-stimulating. I used to create my own art with pen, and then color it with colored pencils. The results were beautiful and it was fun to express myself and play with colors to make it just the way I wanted it, but it usually took weeks of work (and tons of hand cramps) to create a single piece, not to mention how long it would take for me to finally draw something that I was inspired to take into inking stage. It was mentally and physically draining, beautiful as it was. With Happy Color, it requires so little thought and exertion that it's kind of cathartic, and lets me relax my brain - total opposite of creating an advanced drawing by hand. The only real complaint I have towards Happy Color is that they reuse shapes kind of often. For instance, you can be coloring a tropical scene and there are the same flowers repeated 50 times on the screen, sometimes not even oriented differently or flipped. I tend to like stuff with animals in it, and there's this one tiger that they have reused in different coloring pages at least six times. It's awfully distracting but I understand why they copy/paste. There's a lot of crap on that app, but also a lot of genuinely nice art. If you're just looking for something relaxing to do and don't feel like thinking too hard, give it a try! It's definitely not for everyone, but it's good if you just wanna tap your screen and make colors happen.

What an amazing video! I loved this, thank you for going through all that pain for us!! :) Downloading Pigment now.

Wow! Thank you for all of your work! Your descriptions, summaries and conclusions are so valuable. 😃👩‍🎨

Love your accent and especially your personality. Thanks for uploading this. and saving others a lot of time and frustration. New to this tablet stuff, and noticed most of the coloring apps were games. If I wanted to play a game, I'd download a game. What I want is to color for relaxation and creativity. Thanks so much for taking the time to do this video. Appreciate it immensely.

I am going to be absolutely honest with you when I discovered colouring in a digitally form it was an absolute revelation. See majority of time my hands and fingers don't work due to my spinal autoimmune arthritis so they are in a lot of pain so physically colouring is not possible but the digitally form makes it less painful and continuing to relax and colour.

Thank you so much, I've been looking for coloring apps that aren't color by number and I've finally found someone who actually shows non-color by number apps.

one of my favorite apps is Pixel Art (with a pixel rainbow chameleon) you get a piece that is color by number, unlike most pixel art apps, you can color outside the correct squares, but it does keep the number so u can see which u got wrong, and it dulls teh color a bit. The best part, its free, you can remove ads if you wanted, but basically all of it is accessible without paying

1:31 I cannot tell you how much my mom is in LOVE with that games, originally she just saw it as an add and downloaded it like what she does to every app and then I found it played with it and then she tried it since then everytime she has some free time she plays with the app

when i see the price of those apps , i suddenly feel like bamby walking into the annual bloodthirsty hunters Con . once again thanks for your hard work , it is as always very informative and fun .

Sarah, I enjoy your posts and products immensely! I can’t believe I missed this one! I laughed so hard when you mentioned Pigment using hex codes, especially since I just started spending time with Pigment! What sold me into going Premium was that feature and guess what is sitting next to me, My Color Cubes I purchased through you!! Also, if I need a color scheme quick I just bring up the color catalogs on my other screen! Yep, I am your Color Cube poster child. Thank you for all you do!! ~Melody

Love your vids you transform kids colouring books into amazing works of art! ❤️🎨🖌

Color therapy was fun too. They have contests and challenges like use two colors, do a coloring in gold and silver etc. I used to be subscribed to it

Wow! This video would have taken so much effort to make!!! My thanks to you and your team. *thumbs up* indeed

Thank you for this! I've been dying to find a good coloring app and your in-depth video helps so much!!

Thanks for all that work! I had become a bit frustrated and bored with the few colouring apps that I tried, I thought it was just me having too much expectations!

Thank you! I just bought a mini iPad and I just love to color and you doing this saved me time on what I like!

“I’m not messy. I’m making art.” One of the best quotes I’ve seen! 🙌🏻

You really are hardworking Sarah,We really appreciate your hard work and passion😊❤

Thank you so much for making this video! I am so happy that it appeared on my recommended, because I've been struggling with finding the right coloring app for me. Lake would be perfect, but sadly it isn't available on Android buuuut I'll definitely try out some of the others that are!

I cannot tell you how much i appreciate this! This helped me so much, thank you for using so much time for us❤

Thank you so much! Thanks to you, I’ve downloaded Lake, Recolor, Pigment, Colorfuly, and Chroma! These apps are so much fun to use and I found these to be my top favorites thanks to this video! They all meet my expectations and requirements, and I cannot thank you enough! I appreciate you so much, and I hope to see more of these kinds of videos in the future!

I love the app called "Coloring" with a hummingbird being painted in by a paint brush. This app allows you to do your own colors, shading, remove the black drawing lines (the fill option will be gone). It also updates with new pictures about one a week..

OMG You are so patience and skill ! Thanks so much for this useful video.

The look on your face at 1:27 and the slight slam of the Sharpie! 🤣

I'm obsessed with Zen Color. It's honestly my favorite thing to do while watching TV. The colors are predetermined but it's so satisfying and pretty

Thank you so much for all of your work! I needed the help!

My favorite app would be ColorTherapy. There is a subscription but you can do most things without it. It is add free and there is a wide variety of colors. You can chose to do color by number or to make your own drawing. There is also lots of tools so you can actually draw !! The app includes challenges ranging from easy to advanced or you can just pick a picture and start coloring !

never knew i needed this video but so helpful!

You try so hard in you vids!! Ty for entertaining us all!! ❤

i remember downloading recolour on my ipad back in 2018... loved it and was a good past time of mine! meaning to get back into it...

I never thought I‘d see someone do this. Very useful video. My mum actually has some of these

Thanks Sarah! I Just bought my iPad pro and searching for great apps like these. I have procreate but have to learn from the start.

Happy Color is my top fav, absolutely got addicted to it awhile back. Had to kerb my colouring on this app. But is a definite plus in my book.

I’m new to your channel and loved how you reviewed each app. I use Color Therapy app because they have coloring contests, unique colors, gradients, you can blend, mix and relax and be social with others on the app if you want to. The app is FREE, however to unlock their robust features and get rid of ads, I pay 56.00 USD per year( this my first year paying😀) They also have a monthly option of 7 or 9 bucks per month, but the Free version is great too!

7:51 I remember I played a different version of that game (also made by disney) alot back in the late 90s and early 2000s. I had a disk version of it. I even made Christmas cards with that game to give to my classmates!

Okay, but i used to use recolor, but couldnt remember the name! thank you for helping me find it again!

Thank you for your review on the apps. I just started color by number coloring too. ❤😊

Haven't tried any digital coloring apps except those photoshop and Adobe illustrator ones. On a lighter note, Just want to say thanks for the coloring diary. It arrived this morning. I thought it was colored pencils but it was the diary. 😍😍😍

Really good idea for a vid! Keep it up and you'll have more fans than you can handle 😁

Amazing work. You always surprise me. Thank you for your research 😛 You are very patient and dedecate 🥰

I think this video is amazing, especially for artists or aspiring artists or just anyone in general who wants more creative control in adult coloring apps BUT I’ve been using Happy Color (the second app you tried) for almost 4 years now and it’s hands down my favorite. I have trouble sleeping at night (lots of anxiety) and I need something extremely simple to wind my mind down and Happy Color & Solitaire are my go to apps 😅 it’s really nice if you want to color, but don’t want to put a lot of thought into how you’re going to color since everything is already picked out for you. With that being said though, for days I want to be more creative I will definitely check out your top recs because those look really fun ❤️ also, just in case I’m not too late, don’t forget to cancel those subscriptions! 😂

Thank you so much for the help! I have always used Coloring Book for Me, but been unimpressed by the lack of features. I love Pigment so far and can’t wait to keep coloring!❤️

You should try color therapy! I really love it. There is shading, glitter feature, and there is a color drop mode too! Aswell as a pen

These are so fun. I like coloring on paper but this looks satisfying as well! Thanks!💙💚💕💜

i haven’t used coloring apps in a LONG time but my all time favorite to use was always ReColor🥰

Thanks for this. This is what I needed for my sister's tablet.

This is great! I love how Sarah is willing to pay cash just so we don't have to. I actually just downloaded Lake Coloring Books and Journal and it's great so far.

Oh, I totally forgot the name of second app! Thanks for reminder. I like that they have "art" category with actual paintings. It's usually the most challenging one, so I sticked to it most of the time, and so didn't really mind lack of control over colors.

😎 This helps us build a better coloring game! Thanks!

Great video, Sarah. Thank you for taking the time for going through all those apps. Those subs add up very quickly and some pictures are not that inspiring for me to color. The only one that I really liked was the Recolor app you’ve featured. It’s a fun app, love the gradient fill colors. I’ve actually posted some of the pages I did on my Instagram. Made me feel like a real artist for a bit. Thanks again for the vid. Hope you’ve cancelled the memberships on them. ☺️

I used to use pixelart coloring app, now i uses happy color and coloring book. thanks for adding a few more to my collections

I use color pop, I do agree it doesn’t have enough brushes and stuff, but I like it! It’s very relaxing to me :)

This was awesome. Thanks so much! 💜🙏🏽

Oh dear god, what a task! Thank you 🥰

This was great n so helpful!! Thank u!! 💜🌻

Happy Color is the only one I’ve bought. The others are subscriptions and not cheap subs. Now I can watch the rest, because I’m always looking for new ones. I have a few lol While I do love Happy Color because I don’t have to think and just like watching the replay of the patterns after, I am definitely going to download some you mentioned! I’ve been looking for more color apps. Already downloaded pigment!

I just want a simple coloring app, no subscriptions, no payments, works perfectly offline. Is it THAT hard to find a good coloring app like that anymore?

Color therapy is my favorite they have upgraded this app so much it’s great

Bad news about the Pigment app: on Android the link on the blog post takes you to an outdated strategy game that does not work on newer devices

I used to have Recolor, and it was so fun 🥰

I haven't finished this entire video yet, but I'm addicted to April Coloring! It's Paint By Number, there are new pictures daily, categories to unlock, and you use your finger/stylus to paint versus one-click. I've been using the app for years!

i used to be obsessed with color therapy(the app) but forgot the name of the app lol and now i remember thanks to this video

Great video, thank you for sharing 🥰 My fav thou is color Therapy 😍 There is one actually but I can’t remember the name of it , I’ll continue watching the video If it’s not there I’ll check on my iPad once I get it back It allows you to paint 🎨 with like water colors , you know , the layering and all 🙃

Downloaded pigment, it's exactly what I was looking for! I don't mind a monthly subscription as long as it's $10 or under. I am also interested in tayasui color. Based on the reviews they add more pages regularly and it's a set price. A set price, no ads and no subscription is something I can dream of lol. I also have procreate but tbh I like the ease of the pigment app instead of having to import coloring pages, etc.

Thank u now i know a great amount of colouring apps i can try out!! X

Happy color is and has been my favorite app for over a year. It's not my favorite because I play it the most, it's my favorite because one drawing can keep me entertained for 5-15 minutes, most take about 10, and it helps me relax. When I'm waiting for someone to pick me up, I usually play happy color as I can just stop playing when it's time to go and continue later. On my old phone, I could only have a few apps and I decided that apps like Messenger was more important than games so in the end I could only have one game and I chose happy color because of the reasons I already wrote.

since android doesnt have the Pigment app, what i like to do is go to google and search for some colouring pages whether their simple or not, and then open up Ibispaint, (ibispaint is a very good freemuim drawing app with 100+ brushes, tools, and so much more, for android and ios artists) then in ibispaint, import the colouring page, and proceed to use the ibispaint app itself as a colouring app :)

I use Pigment....its really good, highly recommend it, not too badly priced either

Thank you ,this is a whole lot of awesomeness.

This is so cool! You earned yourself a new sub! I love this!

You should do a video where you try every drawing app (ie Ibis Paint, Sketchbook, Photoshop).

Thank you so much that’s save a lot of our time 🙏🏻✨

Color Therapy is hands down the best coloring app out there. It is literally as if you were hand-coloring the images but with a ton more tools, including other artists' renditions for inspiration to get you started. Please do a deep-dive review of this app. 😍

I've been using happy color for years. i paid the small 1 time fee to turn off ads forever. (i don't usually do that) but i love it that much. My only complaint (but not really) is it comes out with content faster than i can keep up.

I like colour pop, blending is pretty easy. Just use the big brush and the brush

The fact she uses her time just for us💗

Why am I soo attracted to these artists 🎨 thumbnails? 🤣😂💕💙💖 don't know which to watch first!🥰😍

The 2 one is my favorite. I always use that app ❤️❤️

I use “Recolor”, but since I have started colouring in with paper and colouring pencils, I use the app less and less. I love the tactile effect of pencils and paper.
