A tool that turns an image into a paint-by-numbers canvas: it splits the photo into numbered areas, each number matches a color, and you fill them in by tapping. Color Memories generates the canvas from your own photos and lets you paint it online, on your phone or computer.

Upload a photo from your gallery (or take one), pick a difficulty and hit Generate. In a few seconds you get your personalized paint-by-numbers canvas, ready to paint by tapping each area. When you finish, download your artwork or share the timelapse of how it was painted.

Yes, completely. You can create your first canvas without an account, and with a free account you keep creating unlimited canvases and your artworks are saved so you can pick them up on any device.

No. It works right in the browser on your phone, tablet or computer, nothing to download. If you like, you can install it as an app from the browser itself to keep it on your home screen and continue right where you left off.

Yes, and you can already pre-register for free on Google Play. When you do, Google notifies you on launch day and installs the app for you: there is nothing to remember. It will be the same canvases and the same account as on the web, with your progress synced between phone and computer. In the meantime you can carry on painting here, in your browser, without installing anything.

Yes. You can download it free from Google Play: the same canvases and the same account, but with the app installed on your phone and your progress synced. The web keeps working just the same in any browser, so you can paint on your computer and carry on from your phone.

Photos with a clear subject and good light: portraits, pets, travel landscapes… The generator adapts the level of detail to the photo: Easy gives you a few large areas and Expert many small ones with very similar colors, so the painted result truly looks like your memory.

Yes, there are four levels: Easy, Medium, Hard and Expert (40 to 100 colors). More colors means closer to the photo and more of a challenge. And with levels mode you can turn 4 photos into a progressive challenge, unlocking each level as you complete the previous one.

Yes. From the canvas itself you can print your picture on two A4 sheets: the numbered drawing, to paint with pencils, markers or watercolours, and the colour list showing which shade goes with each number. It is the same picture you would paint on screen, only on paper: to paint together as a family, for the kids, or to give away. In the Android app you get a PDF with both sheets, ready to print or share.

Your photo is processed only to generate the canvas and is not stored on our servers; the original photo is kept only on your device. It is shared anonymously only if you voluntarily enable the option to help improve the algorithm in the privacy settings.
