A free paint color matching app for DIYers
Redecorating on a budget means every dollar counts, so the last thing you want is to pay before you’ve even matched a color. Color Identifier is a free paint color matching app that lets you scan a wall, a piece of furniture, or a photo and walk away with usable codes — no cost to download and free scans to get going.
How it works
- Open Color Identifier and pick Live Camera or From Photo.
- Point at the surface, or tap a spot in an image you’ve saved.
- Read the color name and its Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone values, then save or export them.
Why “free” matters here
Plenty of tools lock the basics behind a subscription. With this free paint color matching app, you can identify a shade, jot down the codes, and compare options at the store before committing to a single can of paint. That keeps your project flexible and your spending in check.
Codes that work with any paint
The values you capture are universal, so a free paint color matching app like this isn’t tied to one shop. Because most paint brands publish Hex and RGB values for their ranges, the codes help you find the closest match wherever you buy — handy when you’re hunting for the best price.
