iModelKit Light 17+

Great app but could use a touch more

I love this app, it’s a great way to control paint and supply inventory. I wish there was a better way to add custom inventories such as tools, and model inventory. I think it would be of great help for those of us who are big scratch builders and 3D printers. App is definitely worth while as is though. Just an old grump who would like more.

Unsupported. Don’t purchase.

It would be great if the developers kept the app updated with paints and with bugs. Many paints available to me are not in the app. The photo library and internet color selection no longer works. There is no way to select colors based on RGB, HEX, or other color classification systems. The developer is unresponsive to these issues. The App Store no longer recognizes that I paid for the full version. Save your money.

Revision: In review of developer comments, the issues described above remain. My installed app says iModelKit Light, but the id6 store (not Apple App Store) says I have the premium plus inventory version. The refresh feature is inactive. Paint charts can be updated but many don’t exist. I’m not going to risk downloading the full version again for $9.99 to have the same problems. The last app update was 7 years ago. Too long. Save your money until the app is rebuilt.

Developer Response ,

I'm sorry you are not happy with our App. However, before submitting a review you shoud have contacted us (info@id6.ch) or checked the faq on our website (https://www.id6.ch) so that we could have helped you. We always reply to our users within 24-48 hours.
We regularly post chart updates as well as brand new charts on our website so that your paint catalog can be updated.
You can create a new chart and with "dummy" paints using RGB values and then find equivalences (or even a mix) with other paints.
You can always recover the full release from the App Store located in our App, there is a restore button for that.
We are working on a brand new release of iModelKit to enhance and correct the App. However it takes longer than expected as there have been tremendous changes in Apple Development tools that prevent us from posting updates of older code. The new tools are just becoming stable and well featured enough to meet the needs of a complex app such as iModelKit.

New review

My first review was from 2014 and I don't see it here anymore so an updated review would not be amiss.
I absolutely love this app. I have over six pocket sized note books full of color recipes. I dare say over 800+ colors. From everywhere. Reading an hobby article. New recipe. Find a picture, chase down the recipe using RGB feature. Find the color RGB numbers, make a color chip for it, mix using your favorite brand of paint.
I try to convert 99.9% of the recipes to Tamiya brand, because they easily available to me, practically foolproof system and very few colors can not be mixed with them.
Support is fantastic.
Other companies large and small could learn a lot about customer relations from these people.
As a suggestion, I asked if they had seen the popularity of craft paints being used by people on YT, and on one of the next updates, several brands were included as options for inclusion. I'd like to think I had something to do with that.
I understand in the near future another update is due and so look forward to that one.
You can not go wrong with this app.
