Real charts, real cells
Each pattern is a genuine cross-stitch or diamond painting chart. Symbols, colour numbers and cell counts are all there.
Cross-stitch and diamond painting
Patterns you colour, one cell at a time.
Coloranto turns cross-stitch and diamond painting charts into something you can work on anywhere. On the bus, in a waiting room, ten minutes before bed. No hoop, no spilled beads, no lost needle.

- Works offline
- Progress saved as you go
- No account needed
Made for the craft, not just for tapping
Every pattern keeps the structure of a real chart, so what you colour on the phone is what you would stitch or bead.
Tools that help, not cheat
A colour finder, a wide brush and a focus mode take the tedium out of big areas without taking the craft out.
Works offline
Patterns you have opened stay openable with no signal. Your work is saved on the device as you go.
Private by default
No name, no email, no account to start. Analytics stay off until you choose to turn them on.
Free starter set
A set of patterns is free from the first launch, so you can see how it feels before deciding on anything.
Your finished pieces, kept
Every completed pattern goes into your gallery, and favourites are one tap away when you want to come back to them.
How it works
- 1
Pick a pattern
Browse by category, by difficulty, or from the new arrivals shelf. Open one and it is on your phone.
- 2
Colour it in
Tap a colour, fill the cells. Zoom in for the fiddly bits, use focus mode to see only what is left.
- 3
Finish and keep it
Your completed pieces land in your gallery. Stitch or bead it for real afterwards, or just enjoy the finish.
Free to start, premium when you want more

Questions people ask
Do I need an account?
No. The app works without one. Signing in with Google or Apple is optional, and it exists so purchases can follow you to a replacement phone. Even then we store only an opaque account id, never your name or email address.
Does it work without internet?
Yes. Any pattern you have opened stays available offline, and your progress is saved on the device. You only need a connection to browse for new patterns or to sync a purchase.
Is it for cross-stitch or for diamond painting?
Both. The catalogue has charts for each, and the tools are the same. A diamond painting chart is a grid of cells with a colour code each, just like a cross-stitch chart.
Can I stitch the pattern for real afterwards?
That is the idea. The chart keeps its colour numbers and cell counts, so what you finish on the phone is what you would stitch or bead. Selling a finished physical piece you made yourself is fine. Selling the pattern itself is not.
What happens if I get a new phone?
If you signed in, your unlocks and coins follow you. If you did not, your purchases stay with the store account you bought them with, and you can restore them from the app.
Is Coloranto suitable for children?
The app is not directed at children under 16, and it does not knowingly collect data from them. If you think a child has used it, write to us and we will delete anything we hold.
