An eyedropper for your camera roll
Desktop design tools have had eyedroppers for years; your phone deserves one too. Color Identifier is an image color picker app that brings that same point-and-grab feeling to iPhone. Open a picture, tap the color you want, and it is captured — name and codes and all — without leaving your photos.
How the image color picker app works
- Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo.
- Pick any image from your library.
- Tap the exact color you want to pick.
- Read and copy its Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.
As an image color picker app, it samples the precise pixel you tap, so even a tiny accent color comes out accurately.
Two ways to pick, then reuse
You actually get two pickers in one. From Photo pulls colors out of saved images and screenshots, while Live Camera points at a real object and reads it on the spot — so you can grab a color whether it lives in a file or sits on your desk. Picking one color is handy, but the app shines when you collect them: save the colors you pick into palettes, then export or share the codes with the rest of your workflow. The app is free to download with your first reads free, so you can start picking colors from your images today.
