A color image picker online vs. on your phone
A color image picker online usually means uploading an image to a web page, then clicking to read a color. It works, but on a phone the upload-and-zoom dance gets tedious fast. Color Identifier puts the same idea in your pocket: open a photo, tap the spot you want, and the color is read instantly — no site, no upload.
How to pick a color from an image
- Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo.
- Load any picture or screenshot from your library.
- Tap the exact point — it works like an eyedropper.
- Read the color name plus Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone.
Used this way, the app does everything you’d want from a color image picker online, with none of the browser friction.
Where it shines
- Design references — pull a color from a mockup or logo.
- Inspiration shots — grab a shade from a photo you saved.
- Real-life captures — and with Live Camera, read colors straight off objects.
Save what you pick
Drop each color into a palette, organize by project, and export or share the codes. The Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone values are universal, so a color you pick with this color image picker online alternative drops cleanly into any design tool or paint range.
