Color Identifier

Color Identifier By Picture

Open a picture, tap a spot, and identify the exact color behind it.

Identify a color by picture in seconds

The shade you want is often already sitting in a picture — a piece of decor, a fabric, a brand’s logo. A color identifier by picture lets you pull that exact color out without guessing. Color Identifier works like an eyedropper for your photos: open the picture, tap the point, and read the color.

How to identify a color by picture

  1. Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo.
  2. Select the picture you want to use.
  3. Tap the exact area you’d like to identify.
  4. Get the color name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.

Because the color identifier by picture reads the real pixel, you get the shade that’s truly there rather than an approximation.

Handy for everyday moments

One picture, a whole palette

Tap several points across a single picture to capture its full set of colors, then save them as a palette and export or share the codes. The values work with any paint range, design app, or document you paste them into.
