Color Identifier

Color Picker Hex Code

Get the Hex code for any color from the real world or a photo, in a single tap.

The Hex code behind any color

When you’re building for the web, the value you actually need is the Hex code. As a color picker hex code tool, Color Identifier hands it to you for any shade: aim your iPhone at a real object, or tap a point in a photo or screenshot, and the Hex appears straight away.

More than just Hex

A single reading returns the color name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone. Hex and RGB drop straight into CSS and design files, while CMYK and Pantone carry the same color into print. So the color picker hex code you grab for a button also works when that design heads to press.

How to get the Hex

  1. Open Color Identifier and choose Live Camera or From Photo.
  2. Point at the object, or tap the exact pixel in your image.
  3. Read the Hex value with RGB, CMYK and Pantone.
  4. Save it to a palette to reuse later.

Built for web and design work

Save the Hex codes you find into palettes, organize them by project, then export or share so the values land exactly where you build.
