A color dropper for more than just the screen
In design apps the eyedropper only reaches pixels already on your canvas. A color dropper that works on photos and real objects opens up everything around you. Color Identifier brings that eyedropper to your iPhone: tap a point in an image, or aim the camera at a surface, and it picks the color.
How it works
- Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo to tap a point in any image.
- Or choose Live Camera to point at a real-world object.
- The color dropper returns the color name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.
Because it reads the actual pixel or surface, you get the true shade — not a rough approximation.
Where a dropper helps
- Recreating a look — lift a color straight from an inspiration photo.
- Brand matching — pick a tone from a logo or screenshot.
- Real-world capture — grab the color of a fabric, wall, or product.
From one pick to a palette
Sample several points to gather a full set of shades, then save them into a palette and export or share the codes. The values are universal, so each picked color works with any paint range, design tool, or document you paste it into.
