This app is great. Being able to see the equivalent paints makes it so easy to find paint when others aren't available. Two requests- 1. Direct feedback button? I only saw a button to answer survey questions, but not leave direct feedback. 2. Instead of just pinning colors to compare, which can be kind of clumsy, why not just make a comparison tool, where you select color A and color b and put them side by side? I understand the pinning tool does that but it isn't very straight forward. Just a simple selection to compare colors and put them side by side would be very helpful. You could even make it so that you could compare more than just two colors, e.g. you have three colors- the original, one that is 97% equivalent, and another that is 95%, and you want to see what they all look like together. Select colors A, B, and C and see.

I've been using this for at least a year now. It's made it much easier to find the colors I need. Better than spending time looking online or a huge exel file that hasn't been updated in years. There are still issues with matching colors but I think in many cases it's due to the naming of the colors by the manufacturer. You'll have 3 different blues with the same name. Although I haven't used it much the News section keeps me updated on upcoming kits.

I really want to like this app as much as other people have. Unfortunately, I ran into a few things that are issues for me that stopped me from getting started with the app.l paints 1. Testors enamel paints are missing as only the Model Master line is included in the app. 2. The Scalator is only metric. 3. Would be nice to be able to manually add paints to your inventory if they are missing from the app's database. I realize this is ongoing work and applaud the efforts of the developer. But in my case I was unable to really get started with it. Maybe at a future date I can try it again and redo my rating. Thank you developer.
