Find the paint hiding in a photo
The color you need is sometimes locked inside a picture — a wall you photographed, a sample you snapped. A paint finder from image unlocks it. Color Identifier reads the painted spot you tap and finds the shade, then hands you codes you can take to a store and match.
How the paint finder from image works
- Open Color Identifier and choose From Photo.
- Load the photo containing the paint you want.
- Tap a clean section of the painted area.
- Read the Hex, RGB, CMYK and Pantone codes and save them.
A paint finder from image reads the exact pixel under your tap, so choose a spot in even light for the truest find. This is the move when the photo is your only lead — a room you cannot revisit but did photograph, a swatch you shot instead of taking the physical sample, or a past project whose paint records are long gone.
From a find to a finished match
The finder gives you codes, not a brand name, and that keeps you free to shop anywhere. Universal values let you match the closest shade in any brand at any store. Save the find to a palette first so the codes are ready when you go.
