What's New in 2.1.1

Fixed a dark mode bug that could swap black and white in your drawings. Colors from the palette now always appear exactly as you picked them — on the canvas, in layer thumbnails, timelapse replays, and exported artwork — no matter your device's appearance setting.

Also fixed: clearing the canvas now removes placed stickers too, so a sticker-only page no longer gets stuck as "already empty."

Version 2.1 — a quick fix, plus more to colour.

FIXED
• Clearing the canvas now removes stickers too. If you'd added a sticker, "Clear" used to leave it behind — and could leave you stuck. Now hold the + button and everything clears for a fresh start. Your loaded colouring page stays put, so you can keep going on the same picture.

MORE TO COLOUR
• Fresh packs have landed — Floral & Cosmic Mandalas, Dot-to-Dot Animals & Vehicles, and Trace the Shapes for early learners. Find them in Library → Packs. If you've already unlocked a category, its new packs are yours automatically.

Version 2.0 — A whole library of pictures to colour, plus a calmer, roomier canvas.

NEW
• Content Packs — a growing library of colouring pages and mandalas! Browse themed packs in Library → Packs — Animal Friends, Things That Go, Unicorns & Friends, Flowers & Nature, Super Heroes, and Starter & Ocean Mandalas — unlock the ones you love, then colour them in with every brush, layer and symmetry tool. New packs added regularly.

IMPROVED
• A calmer, kid-friendly top bar — every tool now tucks into a single menu, and the layer & brush labels moved up into the header, leaving the whole canvas clear to draw on.
• Hold the + button to clear the canvas — it now fills a ring as you hold, so the shortcut is easy to discover.
• Lots of little polish throughout.

Version 1.7 — A roomier tool sheet, rock-solid symmetry, and a quick way to start over.

NEW — Quick Clear: touch and hold + to clear the canvas (same confirmation as Clear All, still undoable).
IMPROVED — Bigger, full-width tool sheet with a grab handle and dimmed backdrop.
FIXED — Symmetry no longer freezes the app (esp. Radial); symmetric strokes still undo in one step.

Version 1.6 — Smoother strokes, your palettes, and a reference pin that follows you around.

NEW
• Stroke Stabilizer — a new slider in the Brush controls that smooths shaky lines for steadier strokes. Off by default; turn it up as far as you want.
• Custom Color Palettes — save your favourite colours as named palettes from the new palette menu, and switch between them with a tap. Your recents become the starting point for any new palette.
• Reference Image Pin — pin any photo as a floating, draggable, resizable overlay on top of the canvas to sketch from. Lives outside your layers so it's never part of the export.
• Apple Pencil double-tap — double-tap your Pencil to swap between brush and eraser without leaving the canvas. Respects your iOS Settings preference.

FIXED
• iPhone: when adding or switching layers, the previously-active drawing no longer shrinks and shifts into the corner. Layers now render at the same scale as you drew them, on every device.
• iPhone: the Layers panel's active layer row no longer hides its name and stretches tall — the row, name, and "Visible" indicator now lay out cleanly.
• Timelapse playback no longer flashes through a 5-minute session in a single second. Frames now play back at their recorded pacing (scaled by the speed picker), and exported timelapse videos honour the same timing.

IMPROVED
• The Layers panel's Clipping Mask and Set as Background actions moved into the per-layer settings expansion, freeing up room in the row so layer names are always readable.
• Timelapse exports render at the recorded canvas resolution for sharper output.
