Color Identifier

Color Hex Identifier

Identify the hex value of any shade from the world around you or any image.

Identify the hex value of any color

A hex value is the common language of color on the web — six characters that any browser or design tool understands. A color hex identifier gives you that value for any shade you can see. Color Identifier turns your iPhone into one: point at something or tap a photo, and it identifies the hex.

How the color hex identifier works

  1. Open Color Identifier and choose Live Camera to read a real object.
  2. Or choose From Photo to tap a point in any image.
  3. The color hex identifier returns the hex value plus RGB, CMYK and Pantone.

Two modes mean you can identify a hex whether the color is in front of you or already in a picture.

Why hex matters

More than a single value

Each reading also gives RGB for design tools and CMYK and Pantone for print, so one hex identification covers your whole pipeline. Save the colors you identify into palettes, then export or share the codes so the values reach wherever you need them.
