One color picker for everything you see
Most color pickers only work inside a single app or on a screen. Color Identifier is a color picker that reaches into the real world too — point your iPhone at a physical object and read its color, or tap a point in a photo or screenshot to pick a color from your screen. One tool, both worlds.
How to pick a color
- For physical things, open Live Camera and point at the object or surface.
- For on-screen colors, take a screenshot and open it in From Photo.
- Tap the spot you want and read the Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.
Because the same color picker handles real surfaces and screen captures, you don’t need separate apps for each.
Real world and on screen
- Real world — walls, fabric, packaging, plants, anything you can point at.
- On screen — app interfaces, websites, and social posts via screenshots.
- Saved images — any photo or download in your library.
Save and reuse your picks
A picker is more useful when picks don’t vanish. Save colors into palettes and export or share the codes, so a color you picked once is ready the next time you need it. It’s free to download, with your first picks free, so there’s nothing stopping you trying both modes today.
