The first app I've ever opened on my iPad that lowered my blood pressure instead of raising it. No streaks, no nag, no account. Just a little quiet button on my home screen.

The watercolor brush is the closest thing I've ever felt to real paint on an iPad. The smudge tool sealed it — I've already filled a small folio without noticing the time.

I color with my daughter on Sunday mornings and we both forget our iPads are connected to anything at all. That's the highest compliment I can give a piece of software.
