Today we are thrilled to announce our new, upcoming app—A Color Story! It’s been almost a year and a half in the making.
A Color Story is an everyday photo editing app with filters, tools, and simple light effects. We love fresh photos with bright whites and colors that pop, and lately we’ve had a hard time finding an app that can get our photos just right. So we created A Color Story as a simple tool for colorful images. The app has 100+ filters, 30+ effects 20+ tools and the freedom to create and save custom filters!
We’ll share much more when the app rolls out. In the meantime, we just wanted to share a few glimpses of what A Color Story can do.

Bring your color to life! Instead of filters that mute or change your color, we focus on filters that enhance the color that is already there.

Simplicity! We’ve all tried apps that are just too hard to navigate, where you feel like you need a tutorial to even begin. A Color Story is simple. This photo was edited with just ONE filter. No other tools or adjustments!
There is MUCH more we want to share. But we won’t overload you for today! Here’s a quick video that shares all the key features available in A Color Story.

Q: When is your launch date?
A: We haven’t set an official date, but if everything goes smoothly, we’re hoping to launch in the next few weeks! We will keep you informed via Instagram as well as post here when it is available in the App Store. If the Apple review goes smoothly, it could be as soon as next Wednesday!
Q: Are you developing for Android?
A: Yes, we are. It is also in testing phase. The process is completely different from iOS. We will launch it as soon as we are happy with the test phase, but it may be a little longer than iOS.
Q: Can I test the app?
A: We are done testing iOS and are almost ready to launch, so everyone will be able to download it soon. We are SO flattered that many of you have asked to test it! However, we might need a couple more Android testers. We’ll put more details about that on Twitter as we know more.
Let us know if you have any other questions! We’ll be here to answer! xx. Elsie

I had A Beautiful Mess and loved it. Just upgraded to Color story, with the year subscription, but where are the doodles and text? That was what I loved most. I have 3 days…my 20 other “filter apps” can do the same for free. I wanted the doodles and texts
That app is called “A Design Kit” make sure you get both. :))
Just read about your app and I cannot wait to try this out! I’m very curious to see the results!
I’ve seen great things with the app so far from other people’s posts! I’m an android user, but can’t wait for that version!
Thanks for the hard work, and making awesome stuff for us readers and faithful fans!
This looks ah-mazing! I am so excited for the curves!
I got so excited to see this has been released! …. then realized it’s iOS only… Is that still the case? Are you still in need to beta Android testers? I’d love to help iron out those snags.

Hi Fatin! It’s just a one time purchase. 🙂 -Jacki
I’m really interested to purchase the filters(Chroma’s pack), but I’ve question does I need to pay it for once or every month?
Hey!
I just had purchased all the filters a couple weeks ago on my iPhone 5s and just upgraded to the iPhone 6. How do I retrieve what I had just recently purchased for the app?
Really enjoy it !
Hi Michelle! Glad you’re loving the app :)) You should be able to restore you purchases from both devices. Just click on the shop button at the bottom of the app and then scroll down until you see the restore purchases button. Let us know if you need anything else! (hello AT acolorstory DOT com) -Jacki
Hey ABM, like the new app! Quick question on syncing between devices. The “follow me” filters (email and instagram) were unlocked on my iPad, but when I went to use the app on my phone, they were not unlocked. While this is not a big issue on the free “with action” filters (as I can easily click through), I wondered if the purchased filters would be available to all devices or if each devices requires its own purchase? None of my other apps require separate purchases, so I am hoping yours doesn’t either! =] Thanks for clarifying!
Good for you! This is really great!
So excited about this!
Helen
Loving this app!!! I just bought all of the packs on my iPad and came over to my iPhone and they didn’t transfer even though it’s under the same account. Advice on that?? Don’t want to have to buy the packs twice and obviously not always on one device.
Using it! Love it!
Love it! How do I purchase the currently locked features within the app? Thanks, and congrats on the launch!
I’m having issues with purchasing the $7.99 pack from your in-store link on the app. It exits me out of app everytime I click on the purchase price…it might be your app is really popular right now. Should I just check back tomorrow?
Congratulations! What a great way to start the year!!
Looking forward to trying out the app
