Frequently Asked Questions
Pictures open in colour by numbers: pick a number at the bottom of the screen and tap every area with that number. The tiniest parts colour themselves when their colour is finished. To colour freely instead, tap the tool button in the top corner and pick Fill or a brush, then choose any colour from the palette.
Yes. Use the undo and redo arrows in the bar under the picture.
Yes. Colourify saves on your device as you colour, so you can close the app and carry on later. Progress is stored only on the device, so deleting the app deletes it too.
Colour-by-number pictures finish by themselves when the last number is done. When colouring freely, tap the tick in the bar to mark the picture finished; it then appears in My Art.
Colourify is made for children. Buying, restoring a purchase, saving or sharing, opening links and turning on reminders all ask a simple question that a grown-up can answer, so children can't do these by accident.
Tap share on a finished picture or in My Art. After the grown-up question, the iOS share sheet lets you save to Photos or share. The first time you save, iOS asks to let Colourify add photos.
Every category has free pictures to colour, and the basic colours, Fill and marker are free. One optional, one-time purchase (Unlock Everything) unlocks the Deluxe Pack and future picture packs, every brush, fill style and background sound, colouring books, and unlimited drawings of your own. There are no ads and no subscriptions.
Open Settings in the app and tap Restore Purchase (after the grown-up question), using the same Apple ID that made the purchase. Colouring progress is stored on the device, so it is only kept if you restore the device from a backup.
Yes. Tap the + tile in the gallery to import a photo of a drawing, and Colourify turns it into a colouring page. Four drawings are free; the purchase makes it unlimited. Photos stay on your device.
Yes, fully. No account or internet connection is needed.
In the app's Settings, under Notifications. Turning reminders on asks the grown-up question first. You can also manage them in iOS Settings → Colourify.
