COPIC Collection

The old design was visually appealing but expensive and complicated to program. So they went and spent more money on another expensive overtly complicated design but this time it’s ugly. THE PROBLEM Whoever is in charge of the app development has wasted a ton of money trying to solve an easy problem by over ambitiously complicating it, and now the app needs another redesign that isn’t going to happen anytime soon. SUGGESTIONS Go to a graph spreadsheet system that is fast and easy to add an item. Don’t overload the screen with a picture of every individual single item. Keep things simple. Prioritize a low number of steps to complete an action. FEATURE SUGGESTIONS Add a way to catalog a copic collection by taking a photo of it. The app should be able to see and find the numbers of each Copic pen visually. Keep and improve the bar code reader so that it can be used for more than just scanning the copic marker pens. Keep and improve the import photo color matching feature. GOODLUCK!

If you don’t want to return to the older version, where one could see the kind of pen and colors one had, at least make a page on this version where you can do that! Seeing the end caps was comparable to looking into my box and seeing what I had or needed. I do not like this version where you have to search the color and then what pen you have. It’s ok to see all the colors, but it would be nice to see a virtual pen as well.

I hate the new version. I liked seeing my markers displayed the way the old version had them. Please PLEASE fix. Just awful. I won’t use it anymore

I used to absolutely love this app, it was perfection. The update ruined it, and it doesnt serve the purpose anyone got it for. Now I find myself desperately searching for a way to downgrade it. You messed up.

The barcode scanner doesn’t work and why don’t you guys have a option that lets you automatically add the whole collection if you own it to the library…

I thought an update was supposed to a good thing, but not in this app’s case. I got some new Copic markers, went to the app, and found the app had changed. It was a challenge to figure out what was what. I have to be honest, I don’t think I can rely on this app anymore, when I’m standing in an art store, and need to quickly and easily access what colors I have and don’t have. This app was beautifully designed before, and was pleasing to the eye. Seeing rows of pretty colors and the maker caps was a delight to the eyes. You kinda ruined it. You need another update!

I have had this app for a while and it was great. Super easy to use when shopping for new pens because you could easily see what you already own. This latest version basically ruined the app. It is super hard to see what you have and no long intuitive to use if you want to update your collection. Uninstalled.

It was so much easier to see what colors I had in the previous version of the app and I could change the color of the app icon. I hate the redesign and will probably delete it. I’ll just buy a color chart and color it in to see what I’m missing.

Usually I appreciate more minimalist graphic design approach, but this recent design overhaul update for this app is such a huge downgrade. The page with all the pen caps is the biggest part I miss, because you could easily see at a glance what you own (Sketch, Ciao, Ink, Classic were all grouped and each had a unique visual representation) along with the full name and number. I also miss the page where you could see your entire collection as a color chart. There’s now no longer a way to do that. I’m glad they added a barcode scanner feature, that’s about the only improvement, everything else is massively disappointing.

The option for finding the complementary color is gone! WHY!!!????? The old version was the best, easy to use and see everything at a glance. The new UI is terrible, why change it!!!? I don’t want to swipe left and right constantly or turn my phone to see the SMALL text for the color code. This new update is HORRENDOUS. If I could give negative stars I would. DO NOT USE THIS APP THERE ARE BETTER OPTIONS!!!!!!
