Greeting card
Works on any picture you have open — a turtle, a skull, a photo you imported, a blank page you drew on. Prints one sheet; fold it in half twice and your picture is the front of a 4¼ × 5½ inch card with a blank inside to write in. Print the test page once first — if FRONT comes out upside down, switch the fold direction above.

Pages & packs
Pick a pack, then a page. Locked packs show their artwork — sign in to unlock one.
A pack is yours for good and follows your account to any phone. The coloring you have already done stays on the device you did it on — save the image when a page is finished and it is yours wherever you keep it.
Install
The other Colorloom apps
Colorloom's main shelf and the Kids app are separate installs on their own addresses. Nothing here appears in either of them.
Appearance
Grown-up shelf
A separate app, with its own icon. Strong language, horror and drug references.

Your work
One file with every page you have coloured, your palettes and your settings. Import merges it with whatever is already on this device — nothing is overwritten unless the file has more of that page coloured in.
Your work stays on this device. Colors and drawings are saved in this browser only — never uploaded to us, and never tied to your account. That also means clearing your browsing data, or switching to another phone, starts you fresh. When a page is finished, save the image so you keep it for good.

Pages 0 of 9
Tap to add, tap again to remove. The number shows where it lands on the sheet. Pages you have colored come first; any page you can open can go in, colored or not.
Photos and camera shots stay on this device. They are never uploaded, and we never see them. Adding them is unlimited.
Paper
Uses the same My coloring / Blank outlines choice as the buttons above.
Your packs are here
Everything you have bought is already unlocked on this device. What has not come with it is the coloring itself — that stayed on the device you did it on.
To carry a finished picture between devices, save it as an image or a PDF from Options → Save & print.
Seven days — here is a page
Yours to keep, on this account, on any device you sign in on. We picked it — it is the page most people have starred that you did not already have.
Welcome — here are five pages
Yours to keep, on this account, on any device you sign in on. One from each of several packs, so you can see what each one is like.
From here, opening Colorloom on seven different days — they do not have to be in a row — adds another page, free. That one keeps coming for as long as you keep coming back.

What is this about?
2000 left
This is anonymous. It sends from the app, not from your email, and we are not given your address. That means we read every one and we cannot write back — so if you are describing something broken, put everything we would need in the message itself.
Refunds do not go through this form. This channel is anonymous, and a refund needs the purchase attached to it.
Reply to your Stripe receipt. The emailed receipt for the pack came from us and identifies exactly what you bought — replying to it reaches us with the purchase already attached, which is the fastest way to get it sorted.
Thank you — we have it
Your message is in. We read everything that comes through here, and it genuinely does shape what gets built and drawn next.
You will not get a reply, and that is not us being rude — the message arrived without your email address, on purpose, so there is no way for us to write back. We will take it as it stands and go from there.

What they can see
You decide, not us. The list above is every set of pictures in the app; untick anything you would rather they did not see. The "not all ages" note is only our opinion of the artwork — it does not hide anything by itself.
What this does not do. A web page cannot lock itself to the screen. For that, use Guided Access on an iPad (Settings → Accessibility) or screen pinning on Android — then this is the only app they can reach. The PIN here blocks every way to buy something and hides whatever you unticked; it will not stop someone who knows how to clear a browser's data.
Colorloom Kids
A second app, with its own icon, for a child's own device. It is not a setting inside this one — it is a separate install, and the only way to remove it is to uninstall it.
What is in it
What is not
When it happens to be online it checks whether new drawings exist — a few dozen bytes, once, when it opens. If there are, it says so and waits: nothing downloads unless you press Update. A device that is never online never changes at all.
You will land on kids.practicalbyteapps.com, where your phone will offer to add it to the home screen. It is a separate app on its own address — installing it does not change this one.
If it opens inside this app
You are in the installed Colorloom app. The Kids app is on its own address, so the button above should hand it to your browser — but if it opens in a window that still belongs to this app, your phone will say it is already installed and bring you back here. Only a browser can install an app, so open it there instead.
Colorloom After Dark
It contains strong language in full, horror and menace, weapons,
blood and gore, and drug references. There is no nudity and no
sexual content.
Nothing here asks your age or your identity, and nothing is sent anywhere
— this is a note about what is inside, and your answer stays on this
device.
Colorloom After Dark
A second app, with its own icon and its own address. It is not a setting inside this one — it is a separate install, and the pages in it never appear here.

If it opens inside this app

Colorloom
The main shelf: flowers, sea life, stained glass, kaleidoscopes, farm animals, holidays. A separate app with its own icon and its own address, and none of the grown-up pages appear in it.

Colorloom Pro
You have Pro. Thank you.
The free goes need an account. Signing in is free and takes a moment — it is what your remaining tries are counted against, and it is how Pro follows you to another phone.
One payment of $9.99, tied to your account, so it comes with you to another phone. It lifts three limits:
Everything else stays free, with no limit: coloring, saving and printing any page from a pack you own or the free pages, drawing on them, and your signature.
