Fine Artist vs Sandbox Coloring

Fine Artist is a pixel art coloring app for Android and iOS. In numbered mode, users choose a palette color and apply it to cells with the matching number; they can swipe across matching cells to color faster. Color Splash fills the area around a selected cell, while Magic Wand colors neighboring cells with the same number. Completed artworks can be shared with friends and family. The app also has a free drawing mode described in its App Store listing, with custom colors, a brush, and a paint bucket, without numbered cells. It can record a drawing for sharing as a video.
