    First of all, Emperor’s Children. No models (excluding the OLD Lucius the Eternal and a Noise Marine) from that faction are in. Second of all, where is Szahrek, the Silent King??? Third, 11th edition in 2026, heard it’s very Ultramarines/Orks based. As an Orks player, I know I’m going to blow hundreds, so I want to see more characters come in (By the way, my Orks army is more undivided in terms of klans, I have this hilarious funny color combo. The name of the army is ‘Skittles: Taste da Rainbow!’). Otherwise, very good app with awesome tutorials (Love ‘Tips & techniques section).

    This is a great app just needs regular updates and new models are coming out and this app is recommended for new players and painters of those new models.

  • Great app, just a little outdated.

    I love the app and it has helped me with painting my chaos marines and getting all the colors just right. However, like others have said, the Warhammer community articles haven’t been updated in since April of 2024, and new armies such as the Emperor’s Children or new models for existing armies such as sekhetar robots or slaughterbound, or the new saturnine terminators for the 3rd edition of the Horus Heresy. Other than that though, the app does exactly as it says and goes above and beyond!

  • It is time to fix this app

    Please add more features. I should be able to zoom into the pictures. There should be step by step instructions. There should be links to video instructions. You should have contrast recipes like you had previously. You should be able to rotate models. I should be able to see what the color of a paint looks like on an object instead of just the swatch when picking out the color. Come on, it’s 2026. Let’s update this thing.

    Most of the time the info it gives is accurate but there’s been more than a few times it’s listed paints that just make no sense to use. This alongside the limited picture range and the fact it takes forever for an update to be released, this app just isn’t worth it.

  • It’s chugging along

    An old app true but still a great source even if it takes forever to update. Yes there are things that need Improvement but do as I did and reach out in a— support. I don’t think they read these comments and some of you have great ideas and QoL that should be standard.

  • Great for beginners

    I’m still new to Warhammer (Feb 2025), and this app was super helpful at helping me keep track of my citadel paints and for quick access to many different colour schemes. While the pre-made colours on the app don’t always line up to what’s on the model in the image, it’s still helpful for getting an idea of what you might want. I mean, if you want a super in-depth guide, YouTube has plenty.

  • Sync across devices?

    We sign in to the app, so other than tracking us, how about you give us some functionality like syncing projects and paint lists from our phone to tablet?

  • Videos and Articles

    The app itself is great. They have not updated the Warhammer Community articles and added more painting tutorials even though there is new content on the website. The pre-existing painting tutorials are extremely helpful and have helped me improve my skills greatly. The function where you can search for a color is super useful for getting just the right color. Amazing app but just needs to update the content.

  • Helpful App - Needs Improving

    I love the app and considering it is free 5 stars. I do hope GW invests more into it and also promotes it more so they great a return on more sales when more people paint!
