Pick a colour straight from an image
When the colour you want lives inside a picture, you need to point at the exact spot. As a colour image picker, Color Identifier lets you tap a single point in an image and reads the colour right there. It behaves like an eyedropper, so you pick the precise pixel instead of an average of the whole frame.
How to pick from an image
- Open Color Identifier and tap From Photo.
- Choose the image — a screenshot, a saved download, or your own photo.
- Pinch to zoom, then tap the exact point.
- Read the colour name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone.
Using the colour image picker, you can lift a single shade out of a detailed image without it getting lost among everything else on screen.
Handy for everyday colour work
- Mood boards — pull a colour from a saved inspiration image.
- Branding — grab a precise colour from a logo screenshot.
- Interiors — capture a wall or fabric shade from a room photo.
For the truest result, pick a well-lit image and zoom in before you tap so you avoid shadows and highlights. Save each pick to a palette and export or share the codes. Color Identifier is free to download, and your first picks are free.
