A handy paint color match app for any moment
Spotted a color you love and want to recreate it? Color Identifier is a paint color match app that turns your iPhone into a quick color reader — point it at the wall, a cushion, or a photo and get the exact codes in seconds, no special gear required. It’s the kind of tool you reach for on the spot, whether you’re standing in a friend’s living room or scrolling a photo you saved months ago.
Match a color in three steps
- Open the app and choose Live Camera or From Photo.
- Aim at the surface, or tap a spot in an image.
- Read the color name and its Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone values, then save or export.
What you can match
- Walls and trim when you’re repainting or touching up.
- Furniture, fabrics, and decor you want new paint to complement.
- Photos and screenshots of colors that caught your eye.
Codes for any paint brand
A good paint color match app shouldn’t tie you to one shop. Color Identifier gives universal values, and because most paint brands publish Hex and RGB codes for their ranges, the readings help you find the closest match wherever you buy. Save a reading to a palette so it’s ready when you reach the counter, or export the codes to share with a painter. It’s free to download, with free scans to get started.
