COLOUR AWAY

Platforms: iOS, Android

 

Colouring has been proven to be an effective way of de-stressing in a very hectic everyday life. However it's not as easy to get your hands on colouring books, especially adult ones. Neither is it easy to spend that level of time on colouring. 

"Colorfy" is at its core a colouring book for adults, albeit a simplified version. It's not to say that children can't play with it either. In fact, as kids grow more and more fond of smart phones, an app like Colorfy can help to add that extra bit of creativity. Colourfy uses the tap feature as their form of colouring. The app lets you choose from a host of themes off of their library, including florals, animals, mandalas, patterns, etc. all presented as lineart in the app. Within the themes there are multiple options that one can get access to depending on whether they pay for the app or not, but even without paying there are multiple options to choose from. 

The colours that can be used are also determined by the app. A lot like the Microsoft Paint, the user can choose their colour and tap on the part of the art piece that they want to colour. It sounds simplified, and is a relaxing experience, especially when you're travelling by public transport and there is not much else to do with the Dhaka traffic. There are worse ways to spend time, and if anything colouring on the go seems to be one of the better ways to do it.
