Color Identifier

Paint Color Finder App

Find, save, and export colors on the go — your whole project in one pocket app.

A paint color finder app that travels with you

A finder is most useful when it’s always in your pocket. As a paint color finder app, Color Identifier turns your iPhone into a color tool you can use anywhere — at home, at the store, or on a job site — reading any shade and giving its name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.

Find, save, and organize

The app is built around keeping colors together, not just reading one and forgetting it:

How it works on the go

  1. Open the app and pick Live Camera or From Photo.
  2. Scan the wall, sample, or photo in front of you.
  3. Read the Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.
  4. Save it to a palette and export when you’re ready.

One app for the whole project

Because every color you find lives in the app, a paint color finder app like this replaces scribbled notes and loose chips. The codes are universal, so they work with any paint brand’s range when you shop. Color Identifier is free to download, with free scans to begin.

Frequently asked questions

What makes it a paint color finder app rather than just a tool?

Beyond reading a color, it lets you save scans into palettes, organize them by project, and export the codes — so the app keeps your whole color list together.

Can I use it while I'm out shopping?

Yes. It runs entirely on your iPhone, so you can scan a sample in the store, check it against a saved palette, and decide on the spot.

Can I share the colors I find?

You can export and share the Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes, which is handy for sending a shade to a contractor or a paint counter.
