Release notes
What’s changed in each App Store release.
Version 1.2
Coming soon
- Improvement to building Studies. You can now bookmark mixing recipes you plan to use for each colour. They’re saved to the Study and positioned as the first recipe when you next tap a colour swatch or cluster.
- Bookmarked recipes set the tone. Once you’ve selected a recipe, Undertint favours mixes that reuse it elsewhere in your Study, so the whole piece hangs together better.
- More paints. I’ve added the Van Gogh Pocket Box and other requested paints from Daniel Smith, Old Holland and M. Graham.
- Easier paint requests. There’s now a link in the Palette view that drafts an email for you to fill in and send.
- Recipe saving and palette coherence are part of Undertint Pro.

- Undertint Pro. Optional one-off in-app purchase that unlocks two- and three-paint mix recipes for closer colour matches to any reference colour.
- Dilution gradient strips. Each Pro mix recipe shows a strip from masstone to bare tint, illustrating how the paint behaves at different concentrations.
- New preset palettes. Five sets covering Daniel Smith Essentials Introductory Set, Holbein Artists’ Watercolours Set, Schmincke Horadam Aquarell Metal Set, Sennelier L’Aquarelle Classic Metal Half Pan Box, and Winsor & Newton Professional Starter.
