iPad + Apple Pencil Fullscreen coloring

A coloring room built around the pencil.

Choose a scene, draw and fill with native PencilKit tools, organize your library, and send finished artwork to a gallery or share-ready PNG.

A studio, not a toy box

The artwork gets the whole screen.

Coloring Room keeps navigation and organization in the sidebar, then lets the canvas, Apple Pencil, and native palette own the creative space.

01

Pick from a real library

Browse built-in and imported drawings through smart folders, favorites, complexity, orientation, custom categories, and search.

02

Color the natural way

Draw, erase, zoom, pan, fill regions, manage layers, and undo across the combined edit history with native PencilKit behavior.

03

Finish beyond the canvas

Export an opaque, aligned PNG, keep it in the Gallery, share it, or return through the medium home-screen widget.

Template Studio

One canvas, every layer aligned

The template, fills, PencilKit strokes, and overlays share one native zoom and pan viewport, so close detail work stays exactly where you placed it.

Offline first. Recoverable by design.

Creative work should come back.

Coloring Room saves drawings and imports locally with atomic writes, then mirrors templates, progress, library state, and Gallery artwork to iCloud when available. The studio remains usable without a network, and deferred recovery handles iCloud arriving late.
