Great app, I've been playing with it on my iPhone 3GS for a few minutes.

The only suggestion I could offer is to make the text in the help sections a little larger. On this non-retina display, it is hard to read.

Love this.

Is this an iOS app, i.e. written in Objective-C? Or is this a web app, written in HTML5, JS & CSS?

I almost never share things like this on Facebook, but I shared Monster Coloring Book. I don't even own an iOS device, but the execution/design seems spot on. I see this becoming highly successful - congrats!

Thanks, really appreciate the help spreading the word.

Thank you and thanks for the feedback, we'll definitely look into that for the next update.

Really fun! I quite enjoyed going back to my childhood and colouring in :D Only one small problem - the app regularly crashed after attempting to "buy" patterns. eta: it was patterns, not stickers.

Sorry for the crashes - any chance you could let me know what device you are using it on?

Nice design! The examples colorings look a bit too much like done by an illustrator though, is this targeted for kids ?

Thanks. It's targeted for kids of all ages.
