It may sound odd, but this is the most useful non internet or MSFT app I've ever had. I'm one of the unlucky one in eight men that is red/green color blind. Being able to precisely match suit to shirt to tie to pocket square is a breeze now. No longer do I have to endure my wife's rolling eyes in the morning. If they'd asked for more to upgrade to pro, I'd have paid it in a second. But they only wanted like $3 to fix my "handicap"? Under selling themselves.

I LOVE the way this app works!!!! The IUD is super cool, I feel like a spy when I use it. The picker itself is highly accurate, I am an artist and have been testing it with my Pantone Swatcher and its amazingly accurate. I recommend this to anyone, Im currently using it to match colors of decor for the house against wall/floor colors at home. Very, very cool!!!

Sooooo much better than I ever hoped for! It is so intuitive and user-friendly your first time that it kind of blew me away. Whoever did the design just knocked it out of the park because I pretty much knew how to use each button even though they were not labeled and I had not looked at any instructions or guide or anything. That, to me, is a hallmark of excellent app design. Well done!! I also had no idea that in the settings you could change the color library to almost any of the relevant ones
