Grab a color straight off the screen
You spot a perfect shade in an app, a website, or a social post — but there’s no code on screen. Used as a color picker from screen, Color Identifier closes that gap: take a screenshot, open it in From Photo, and tap the exact pixel to read the color behind it.
How it works
- Take a screenshot of whatever is on your screen.
- Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo.
- Load the screenshot and tap the spot you want.
- Read the Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes.
Because a color picker from screen works from a frozen capture, you can zoom in and tap a single pixel without the color shifting underneath you.
What you can sample
- Websites — capture a brand color or button shade.
- Apps and UI — pull a color from any interface.
- Social and media — sample colors from posts, videos, and stills.
From screen to your tools
Every reading hands you Hex and RGB for web and UI plus CMYK and Pantone for print, so a color you spotted on screen carries cleanly into your design files. Save picks into palettes and export or share them later. It’s free to download, with your first scans free, so you can try it on the next screen color you can’t name.
