A simpler path than color identification online
Searching for color identification online usually leads to web tools that are awkward on a phone — you have to upload a file, zoom around, and hope the result is accurate. Color Identifier skips all that. It’s a free iPhone app that identifies colors directly from your camera or photo library.
How color identification works in the app
- Open Color Identifier and choose Live Camera to read a real object.
- Or choose From Photo to tap a point in any image you already have.
- Get the color name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.
Instead of clunky color identification online, you get a tap-and-read experience built for the phone in your hand.
What you can identify
- Real objects — a wall, a flower, a product, live through the camera.
- Photos and screenshots — tap the exact spot you care about.
- On-screen graphics — sample a logo or design from an image.
Keep and reuse your results
Save each identified color into a palette, then export or share the codes. The values are universal, so anything you identify works with any paint range, design app, or document — no website required.
