FOR THE MOMENTS BETWEEN COLORS

Some days,
a few words.

A thought, a mood, or just a sentence. Your Journal has its own place, even on days you do not color.

Write more than once a day. Link a drawing if you want to. Keep your private notes separate from the stories you choose to share.

here, too.”A reminder inside SlowGarden

A PRIVATE CORNER, CLOSE AT HAND

Your little worlds.
On your device.

Your artwork and Journal stay on your iPhone or iPad. No account to create. No ads or analytics SDKs in the app.

Keep a manual backup somewhere safe. Share a PNG, or your artwork with its own story. Your private Journal stays separate.

A FEW THINGS YOU MIGHT WONDER

Before you
begin.

Is SlowGarden available yet?

SlowGarden is currently in App Store review. Leave your email for a one-time launch notification. We do not have a release date to promise.

What will be free?

The four launch books—Little Worlds, Quiet Days, Wild Neighbors and Somewhere Else—include 16 drawings. All coloring tools, artwork stories, Journal, saving, manual backups and basic PNG export are free.

Will I need a subscription?

No. The optional one-time Developer Supporter purchase unlocks four more books with 13 drawings, future books and alternate app icons. There is no fixed schedule for new books. The regional price is shown in the app.

Can I use it offline?

Yes. Coloring, saved artwork and Journal work on your device without an account. App Store downloads, purchases and restoring purchases need an internet connection. There is no developer-operated cloud sync.

Do I have to finish every space?

No. Choose your own colors, use tap-to-fill or continuous strokes, and leave blank spaces if you like. Finish means you feel your drawing is complete.

Are my artwork stories and Journal the same thing?

They are separate. You can add a story to an artwork later, or write an independent Journal entry without coloring first. Sharing an artwork does not attach your private Journal.

Which devices and languages are supported?

SlowGarden is made for iPhone and iPad with iOS or iPadOS 17 or later. Its interface is in English. It does not translate the words you write.
