What a hex color wheel is for — and the faster path
A hex color wheel lets you spin around hues and adjust shade to land on a Hex value from scratch. That is handy when you are inventing a color, but most searches start the other way around: you have a color you can see and you want its Hex. Color Identifier handles that directly by reading the exact value from a real color.
Read the Hex from reality
- Open Color Identifier and choose Live Camera or From Photo.
- Aim at an object, or tap a precise point in an image.
- Read the Hex code plus RGB, CMYK and Pantone.
- Save it to a palette and capture more colors.
Rather than dialing a position on a hex color wheel and hoping it matches, you get the true Hex sampled from the pixel or surface itself.
From one color to a full set
- Web and UI — Hex and RGB paste straight into your files.
- Print — CMYK and Pantone arrive with every reading.
- Matching — codes work against any paint brand’s range.
Used as a hex color wheel alternative, the app turns real colors into reusable codes: save them into palettes and export or share. It is free to download with your first scans free.
