Ratings and reviews

AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL!!! Photo I uploaded looks extremely grainy on the app. Then, when I select a color and touch anywhere on the photo, it paints the whole screen. I tried to erase the parts I didn't want to paint and it erases in large streaks, so it's just impossible to paint with any efficiency at all! If ZERO STARS were an option, that's what this app deserves.

The concept of this app is nice. However, if you touch anywhere on any photo that you upload it colors the whole photo. Unless you zoom in super close and then it only colors a very very small area. Overall, it doesn't function and the only nice thing about this app is that you can look at the colors that Sherwin-Williams offers.

It gets 2 stars for being able to loosely see how a room would look with different paint. It's not great. Streaks of the old color remain, especially at corners, the AR is buggy, and there seems to be no option to select a second color, even in photo edit mode. It seems like it would have been pretty rudimentary to just add it, and it would help a lot with things like floor colors, ceilings, splash walls... big missed opportunity. The UI is hard to navigate for something with so few options.
