What it is
Color Tap is a free color-by-numbers app that gives children a way to explore pixel art. Its library contains hundreds of pictures, with the press page counting more than 800 templates. The makers say they curated and licensed the artwork from pixel artists around the world. Pictures are bundled with the app and remain available offline after installation. In the painting area, touch controls where coloring happens, while the artwork's zoom level affects how much is filled at a time. The makers describe the experience as intended for children, including children with autism spectrum disorder, and cite playful visuals, animation, and sound design. Separate soundtrack versions are provided for headphone and non-headphone listening. The app is free to download, with all content included; the makers say it has no ads, in-app purchases, or subscriptions. They also say the iOS app neither tracks users nor collects data in the app. Color Tap is listed for iOS and macOS, though its download page points to the Apple App Store. The App Store names Great Scott AB as developer.
