The art

Every page is drawn for this app

Khachkars from Goshavank. Carpets from Ijevan. Taraz embroidery, Khor Virap under Ararat, a gampr in the highlands, khorovats on the table. Bold line work a four-year-old can fill in — and enough detail that grown-ups keep going after bedtime.

How it feels

One tap, five ways to fill

Solid, Soft, Deep, Glitter, Woven

Each one fills differently, and each spreads outward from your fingertip. Woven lays the color in as carpet thread — fill a whole page and it reads as one woven cloth.

Watch it again

Every tap is remembered, so a finished page replays from blank to done — color changes and all — and saves as a video for the family group chat.

Armenian music, real modes

Strings, harp and guitar playing in Armenian tetrachordal modes, written for this app. No stock lullabies. One tap turns it off.

Paper, if you want it

Print any page as clean line art for the kitchen table, and the finished picture saves straight to Photos.

For grown-ups

Built to hand to a child

  • No third-party ads. Nothing interrupts a page, and nothing is sold to anyone.
  • A grown-up check stands in front of anything that spends money or leaves the app.
  • Nothing collected. No account, no analytics, no tracking. What your child colors stays on the device.
  • Works on the plane. Every page and every note of music is already on the device.
  • One subscription covers the family through Family Sharing.
