Color Identifier

Picker Image

Pick any color out of an image with a single tap.

Pick from an image with one tap

Sometimes the perfect color is already sitting in a photo on your phone. Color Identifier is a picker image tool that lets you reach in and grab it — open the image, tap the spot, and the color comes back with full codes. No guessing at a shade by eye, and no exporting to a desktop editor just to sample one pixel.

How the picker image tool works

  1. Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo.
  2. Load the image you want to sample.
  3. Tap the exact point to pick the color.
  4. Read the Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes and save them.

Because a picker image eyedropper reads only the pixel you tap, you choose precisely which shade you pull out — even from a busy photo.

More than one way to pick

A picker image workflow suits design, decorating, and crafts alike because the codes travel anywhere. Export or share a pick so it lands in your tools or with a collaborator. It’s a free download with your first picks free, so both modes are open to try today.
