Same here. Well, the phone didn't actually crash, but the app definitely did. I got a "Activity Color (in application Color) is not responding"
Besides that, the interface is weird to say the least. It's got icons with no text so you have to guess what the buttons do - and I couldn't figure it out (but then again, my IQ is pretty low) - there's a man-with-glasses icon and a planet icon and then there's a clock icon.
Maybe it's very different when there are lots of people around using the app.
But then again, they just received their funding, so it will probably get much better soon.

Color just crashed on my iphone the first run.... let me launch Instagram
its real bad development..you know the type when an Incubator posts a gig than asks the developer you can do this in 2 weeks right..
"WARNING: DON'T LAUNCH COLOR ALONE."
I like the concept, but, if you require people to organize themselves in order to set up their first use experience, you are in big trouble.

I don't even know what this means. Do I have to launch Wordfeud first?
If you're curious, there are GPS location spoofers in the Android Market. Just remember to Menu -> Settings -> Applications -> Development -> Allow mock locations. Then you can use Color + your location spoofer to see photos from people in other places!
4 of 6 user reviews give it 1 or 2 stars. Not an auspicious launch for a $41 million startup.
It's not doing so great when reviewers are already making comments like "I really failed to see the idea of Color.". $41 million? Maybe there is something about this software or concept that isn't been seen yet by reviewers.
It is most definitely different. My first impulse was "where in the hell is the login"
So to do anything "interesting" with it you need to be in the direct proximity of other users with the app. I managed to get the picture of myself it asks for, but because it is such a PITA to find in the (Apple App) store I didn't bother putting it on my wife's phone to try. That seems lame anyway.
This is probably not going to be a big hit with the reclusive introvert type (me). It is an interesting concept though.

Sounds like a great way to have a random stranger's private parts show up on your phone.
There was tons of hate, "That's so stupid," and what's the point commentary in Twitter's 1st and 2nd year of existence.
I would think it wouldn't have gotten funding like this if the backers didnt see a similar opportunity.

...at least twitter "worked". Yeah, it fell over, but only because boatload of people were using it.
when you opened up twitter.com, you could actually understand what was happening
with this android app? not really. very non intuitive icons and buggy as hell.
lets see what happens in the next iterations

So this is the android-part of something that got 41 million in funding? Pretty interesting.
