Color Identifier

Color Selector Hex

Select a color and read its hex code in the same tap.

Select a color, get the hex

For web and UI work, the hex value is the one you reach for first. Color Identifier acts as a color selector hex tool: select any color from a real object or a photo, and the Hex code appears straight away. Point your iPhone with Live Camera, or tap a point in an image with From Photo, and the matching hex is right there.

More than hex in one reading

While hex leads, a single selection also returns RGB, CMYK and Pantone. So the color selector hex covers screen work with Hex and RGB, then carries the same color into print with CMYK and Pantone — no second tool needed.

How to grab a hex value

  1. Open Color Identifier and choose Live Camera or From Photo.
  2. Point at the object, or tap the exact pixel in your photo.
  3. Read the Hex code plus RGB, CMYK and Pantone.
  4. Save it to a palette and export or share.

Using the color selector hex means a shade you spot anywhere — a poster, a product, a screenshot — becomes a clean hex code you can paste into CSS or a design file. Color Identifier is free to download, and your first selections are free.
