Thisissand Reviews

This is a really fun and entertaining app to have. Also super calming and relaxing app! It’s really cool making different things in the sand. It’s a challenge sometimes when you want to make cool things but this is good it makes you never get bored of Thisissand . I love seeing other people’s art and seeing what they can do. I really do like Thisissand but there’s some things that could make it way better. First I would love if you write comments on the art and suggest things to them and give them complements but for what ever reason you can’t. Second there’s a small glitch that makes me really mad so what happens is if you hold the sand for a long time and go up and down the painting after you stop it keeps going and messes up your hole painting. I believe this could be really easy to fix. Third is there needs to be a way of erasing the sand you put down. This bothers me the most because if you mess up or the glitch I was saying happened then you have to restart. This would be very easy to add in so I hope that you would please add something like this in it would make Thisissand way better. Thanks for reading bye...............

Thisissand is a hidden gem, I love the way you can share your creations and everyone makes it on the popular page often, makes you not feel left out like on ig. I’ve paid for the extras on my Samsung and iPhone, unfortunately I’ve had to pay a 3rd time for some reason but It’s not expensive and the color saver makes it worth it! Just wish I could save more than the allowed amount because there are just so many combinations. I really wish I knew how to get the photos to look good using the photos sand option.
Everything in Thisissand is great besides the lack of a undo button which would help when you mess up such a good piece and also the issue with not being able to use my iPhone flashlight if Thisissand is open !! Another thing, lately I haven’t been able to post anything and am getting an connection error/connect to network even though I am so I’ve had to just give up a good piece to start another.

Thisissand helps with my anxiety and allows me to be artistic without the stress of not getting another project done so thank you for making Thisissand!

I’ve been using Thisissand for a couple years. It’s a great way to clear your mind and have fun at the same time. Soothing.

The basic version is fine. No ads or anything. But it’s totally worth spending the two bucks to upgrade for better features. That way you can save color themes and change the quality of the sand. Plus you can import your own images to combine with sand. Really cool.

There’s not a real social aspect, in that you can’t comment on other peoples art. But you can comment on your own art, then share, and hope that they see it (if you want). Some people try to chat that way. I mostly don’t. You can share or not share your work. You can heart other peoples art, and those with the most number of likes (hearts) get into the top pieces for the day.
It’s fun for all ages. All skill levels. There’s no right or wrong - just create! So cool.

One drawback though - lately Thisissand has been messing up for a couple-few days at a time, where you can’t like other peoples art. Since yesterday I haven’t been able to share mine. I worked hard on a cool B&W piece for a contest that someone started, but cannot share. : / …bummer.
The good news is, I can close out of Thisissand and don’t lose my work. I just can’t play until I’m able to share this one, or delete it - which I won’t do.

Any way, just get it. It’s a really nice way to relax. 👍

I stumbled upon your app unintentionally late one night. I have generalized anxiety disorder so I find it difficult to sleep due to feeling anxious at night but I started using your app and after I made my creation, I felt totally relaxed. It is a life changer for me. I have used it every night and I find myself more relaxed and able to manage my anxiety so thank you so much for creating it. I enjoy hearing the sound as the sand comes down (it is relaxing) and love seeing the variety of colors that make my creation. I plan on buying the extra tools and accessories that go with Thisissand eventually.

Overall, Thisissand is nice. A bit limited in what you can make outside of mountain landscapes and abstract aesthetic art, but hey, if you want to actually draw something, there are other apps for that. However, I think it’s missing a very important feature: an undo/eraser tool. Or something similar. One of the biggest frustrations I get when using Thisissand is that I misjudge how fast the colors will change, or I make some other mistake, and I have no way to change it but to completely start over. So I think one or more of the following features would be a big improvement:

1.) a simple undo button that will undo the last continuous stream(s) of sand you put down

2.) a rewind tool that will progressively remove all the sand you put down

3.) a “vacuum” sort of tool, similar to #2 except you can choose exactly what you want to remove

4.) a “blend” or “smudge” tool to smooth out any rough edges you don’t want (for example when I’m making a sky, I sometimes end up with sharp boundaries between colors that I don’t want)

Other than that, Thisissand is solid for what it is, but a bit more control will make it even better.

Dear Creators,thank you so much for making this app. In this game I can open the creativity in side me it also is a stress reliever for when enragement fills me inside. Again creators thank you so much for making this amazing app. I also want to share a story on how I got Thisissand. It all started when in computers my classmate found this game in computer class so I when to the website and started making awesome creations so I when to the website on my phone and saw I had to download it so I did and I have already fallen in love again tysm for making this app

Ever since I started using the website, I discovered there was a app, so why not download it? 𝙸𝚝 𝚒𝚜 𝚊𝚖𝚊𝚣𝚒𝚗𝚐!!! I also have some cool suggestions! First of all, why not let people follow there favorite artist! Secondly, there should be notifications, you’ll get some if someone likes your piece, if someone follows you, (if the creators allow that) and if one of your favorite artists post something! Lastly, I dislike that you can’t use color picker on a phone, so why not allow it to be on a photo! However, Thisissand is 𝕠𝕦𝕥𝕤𝕥𝕒𝕟𝕕𝕚𝕟𝕘!!

Thisissand has made me so happy it deserves much more than five stars not only can I express myself in art but in words also I’m so grateful that you have made an app that can let out anger but it dose not have adds (thank goodness) I hope that you know this is my comfort app and it helps a lot please if you read this know I’m so much better because of Thisissand I hope that not only more people get this but hope it affects them as much as me

Hi, I’ve been using Thisissand for a really long time and it’s very special to me and my memories. I’ve made so many works since installing it. I can’t log in with facebook anymore, and i dont think it was connected otherwise. Please help, i dont want to lose my account :,( I paid for the extra features as well. It seems that Thisissand has trouble connecting lately, and it isn’t my network, because everything else I use works fine. I don’t want to lose this pls look into it, thank you 🙏

I love this game! it's a very relaxing and chill app. I showed it to my little siblings and now they take my phone all the time so they can make cool sand art. I only wish there was an undo button. sometimes I'll be almost done with a piece then mess up, and I'll have to restart the entire thing. annoying. also a color picker would be nice or a history of all the colors I've used for the last few pieces or something.
besides that, I love Thisissand and use it all the time to relax or take my mind off something. 10/10

Thisissand is life changing, I never thought I would find anything that made me so happy but this did! I am happier at work now because Thisissand has lead to promotions and all around has turned over a new leaf for me. My life used to be as colorful as a John Wayne movie but now I see colors I didn’t think existed. My mother who had cancer made a full recovery thanks to Thisissand, my friend who was confined to a wheelchair can walk because of the wonders of this beautiful app! I owe my life to the creators, thank you so much.

Thisissand is even better that their site, I would highly recommend getting it! The website is very limited and doesn’t have as many features, but Thisissand has various features (even though you do have to pay for some). It is so relaxing and super fun to draw cool mountains! The only things I would improve would be to make the sand sound more gentle, maybe it is just my speakers but it sounds very harsh and scratchy to me. 10/10!

Pretty good game. Everything is good except for things I will mention here. First, if you are doing a hard specific design and you mess up, there is no eraser!! Then you have to start all over again. Adding an eraser would be great, or even a back button. Second, less important, too many things to have to pay money to get. At least we don’t need to pay money to save a color we really like, because it is hard to get the exact same color again. Thanks for reading this, and please take suggestions into consideration. :)

this app is great fun and I am wanting to create pieces every spare moment I get every day. The ability to pick your own colors or just use the random color picker plus the slider to adjust how fast the colors change allow endless possibilities for awesome creations. I am addicted!!
One suggestion : Is it possible to have an “undo “ feature, not unlimited but even one or two undo’s? Sometimes I’m almost done with a piece and make one little mistake and want to go back and fix it. Just a thought.

I have really been enjoying Thisissand! It’s very relaxing and a fun break between tasks throughout the day. I wish, however, that there was a way to save multiple in-progress creations that you are working on to come back to later. I’m getting bored of the meticulous one I am currently working on and would love to save it, make a few different ones, and then return to finish my detailed one later. Is a feature like this possible?

There's one small glitch i've noticed, which is when i'm using the photo sand option and have to close Thisissand for one reason or another, when i reopen to continue, i think Thisissand gets confused and starts with the wrong color sand. sorry for the long description, i don't know how else to explain it. otherwise, it's very soothing and also a lot of fun to play in, especially since i don't have to clean up sand in real life!

From someone who gets stressed and anxious so easy, Thisissand is a lifesaver!! I can sit here for countless hours playing this and be relaxed in no time. You can also look at other people work and like it, along with listing your work. It’s so cool. Y’all should definitely download Thisissand! It’s amazing.

I do have two recommendation.
1) I think there should be a feature where you can blend the sand
2) A vacuum button so you can undo or get rid of sand in a certain area

Also, all the people who said who have to pay for everything is lying! You have to pay for additional features.

And the camera situation, it is happening. I noticed the green light appear. Not sure why my camera or mic is being used while I’m on Thisissand.

But great app! Totally recommend!

I love Thisissand. The features are great (and cheap, in my opinion) and it’s a great passtime. It’s easy to feel confident in your work since so many other people spend their time in the Latest section.

However, I’ve come across a bug. When I try to use the image feature, a loading animation pops up as I choose my picture. After the picture is selected, the loading animation won’t go away and I can’t access the interface.

I use an IPad on IOS 11. Fix this bug (and similar issues) and I’ll love Thisissand.

Dear this app,
I discovered your app actually at my school when I would play it on a computer during free time. After I got out of elementary where I played it I decided to look it up on Thisissand Store. I found it and it is now one of my most favorite games ever!!!!! I have been playing for almost 2ish years now. It is so fun, relaxing, and you don’t need any experience to make something AMAZING and share it with the world. Trust me, if you get this game, you will NEVER regret it!

I am on an iPad and I already have an account. I bought the Toolkit about 3 months ago and I wanted to put it on this iPad. I tried to restore it but it said there were no things to be restored. The Toolkit was already locked not to be confused. I was feeling kind of ripped off because I don’t want to buy something I already bought. If you are the Developer, my account name is gray_alltheway14 and just think about this. I love Thisissand , but I was just so confused.

Thisissand is great. I've been on it for over 2 years on and off. During the height of covid and things were stressful I just opened up Thisissand and stroked my stress away! Thank you!! If I were going to make any suggestions they would be to move the “camera” icon away from the “like” icon. I would like to see an option to block a few others so I don't have to look at their fowl pieces and the foul language!!

I obtained Thisissand to help me wind down to sleep. It allows for my mind to focus on beauty and creativity as opposed to life’s many stresses. Mixing color and letting it fall into patterns or random layering eases my mental tension and I have slept easier.

I would like a History or Undo so when I am attempting to make designs purposefully I have more artistic command. It would also allow for experimentation which offers the user the joy and freedom to explore.

First of all this game is relaxing unlike any other art app, just it’s been glitching. But this game is 👍. My dad was like oh this game just wants money it won’t give you the full version but I bought it anyway... IT WAS A TOTAL UPGRADE!!! I showed him all the new “ hd sand umm color shifter fav colors pic colors and all that. (I love proving him wrong!) love the features this game is both appropriate for seniors, adults and kids. Some of my moms friends are elderly so I plan on letting them fool around on this app, too. Thanks for this great game!

This is a great game but I think there should be a tool where you can reshape the sand like in real sand art or a little thing where you can block the sand from going somewhere you don’t want it to go or combining colors to do the double drop thing I don’t know what it’s called but that would make so much easier to make art from the sand

Also sorry about the no periods or comas or anything

I want to start by saying I never do reviews but Thisissand definitely deserves a review. It was a life changer. I’ve tried cross stitch and coloring etc. but Thisissand is more relaxing than the others. I absolutely love it and would recommend it for anyone with anxiety, stress, or just for leisure. Hope you enjoy like I do!!!

Only request is that there is a back button to undo a little sand without starting over.

I think Thisissand is a good way to express art in a way that you you like. A BIG reason I like it is because you can't comment so you can't say mean thing or dislike someone's art. You can only like it or move on. It is a good app for all ages. And is easy to learn how to do. If you Art teachers are out there this is a good app to do with your students in your free time.
