Pick a paint color straight from a photo
The room you want to match isn’t always in front of you, but a photo of it usually is. As a paint picker from image, Color Identifier lets you open any picture, tap the painted surface, and pick that exact color — then walk away with codes you can match anywhere. No second trip to the room required.
How to use the paint picker from image
- Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo.
- Load the image of the wall, door, or object.
- Tap the precise point you want to pick.
- Read the Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes and save them.
Because a paint picker from image reads the single pixel you tap, you decide exactly which shade comes back — not an averaged guess across the frame.
Photos worth picking from
- A room you photographed before a move or a sale.
- Catalog and magazine pages you snapped for ideas.
- An object whose color you want translated to paint.
Once the paint picker from image gives you a reading, the codes are universal and match the closest shade in any brand’s range. Save each pick to a palette so the color is there when you finally buy.
