How does a color identifier from picture work?

You open a picture, tap the spot you want, and the app reads that pixel. Color Identifier returns the color name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.

Can I sample anywhere in the picture?

Yes. Tap any point you like, and you can sample several spots to identify multiple colors from the same picture.

Is there a cost to try it?

Color Identifier is free to download and your first scans are free, so you can identify colors from a picture before deciding.

Color Identifier From Picture

Identify the exact color from a picture

A single picture can hold the precise shade you’ve been hunting for — and a color identifier from picture is the quickest way to extract it. Color Identifier behaves like an eyedropper for any image: open the picture, tap the point, and read the exact color along with its codes.

How it works

Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo.
Choose the picture you want to read.
Tap the precise area you’d like to identify.
Get the color name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.

Since the color identifier from picture reads the real pixel, what you get is the true color in the picture, not a guess.

Practical uses

Matching — confirm a shade before ordering paint or fabric.
Branding — sample a logo color from a saved picture.
Design — collect tones from reference pictures you’ve gathered.

From picture to palette

Tap multiple points to gather a set of colors from one picture, then save them into a palette and export or share the codes. The values are universal, so every color you identify works with any paint range, design app, or document you drop it into.
