Color Identifier

Color Identifier Website

Skip the browser — identify colors right on your iPhone with a tap.

Beyond a color identifier website

When people search for a color identifier website, they usually want a quick way to find out what color something is. On a desktop a web page might do, but on a phone it often means uploading a file, pinching to zoom, and squinting at the result. Color Identifier takes a different route: it lives on your iPhone and reads colors the moment you point or tap.

How it replaces a web tool

  1. Open Color Identifier and pick Live Camera to read a real object.
  2. Or pick From Photo to tap any spot in an image you already have.
  3. Read the color name plus its Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.

Instead of loading a color identifier website and wrestling with uploads, you get an instant, tap-and-read experience.

What you can read

Keep your colors handy

Every color you identify can be saved into a palette and organized by project. Export or share the codes whenever you need them. Because the values are universal, anything you capture works with any paint range or design app — no color identifier website required.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a color identifier website I can use?

Several web tools exist, but they can be fiddly on a phone. Color Identifier is a free iPhone app that identifies colors from your camera or photos and returns Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone.

Why use an app instead of a color identifier website?

The app adds a Live Camera mode for real objects and a tap-to-sample eyedropper for photos — things a website can't do well on a phone.

Do I need an account or upload files?

No. You point your camera or open a photo, tap, and read the codes. There's nothing to upload to a site.
