Color Identifier

Colors App

An iPhone colors app that turns real shades into exact, saveable codes.

A colors app built around real shades

Search for a colors app and you’ll find everything from drawing tools to swatch libraries. Color Identifier sits in a more practical corner: it is the one you reach for when you need to know exactly what a color is. Aim your iPhone at an object, or tap a point in a photo, and it captures the precise shade with its codes.

What each reading gives you

  1. Open Color Identifier and choose Live Camera or From Photo.
  2. Point at an object, or tap the exact spot in your image.
  3. Read the color name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone.
  4. Save it to a palette to keep or compare.

As a colors app, it focuses on accuracy and reuse rather than just showing pretty hues on a screen.

Everyday uses

Save your colors into palettes, organize them by project, and export or share the codes for any tool or paint range. Because the values are universal, they travel anywhere you work. Color Identifier is free to download, with your first readings free.
