ColorSnap® Match

Variable, Inc

About this app

Matching paint just got easier. Connect to your ColorSnap™ Match Pro or ColorSnap™ Match paint matching tools (sold separately at Sherwin-Williams Stores) for easy, on-the-spot color matching.

Simply scan the color of a flat surface to match to the closest Sherwin-Williams paint color. The ColorSnap™ Match Pro device identifies a paint’s sheen in addition to the closest paint color.

You know as well as we do that matching a paint color can be a difficult and time-consuming process. With so many different colors and sheens available, it’s tough to nail down the right color without taking a sample into the store. That’s why we designed the new ColorSnap™ Match Pro. Eliminate the guesswork in paint matching by instantly matching to the closest Sherwin-Williams paint color and sheen with the click of a button.


App Features:

- Scan and match to the closest Sherwin-Williams paint color.
- Determine a paint’s sheen (Requires ColorSnap™ Match Pro).
- Compare two colors.
- Save and share paint colors and photos.
- View coordinating colors.
- Locate the nearest Sherwin-Williams store.

Ratings and reviews

Disappointing and Misleading I expected this tool to provide custom paint color codes based on scanned surfaces, but unfortunately, it only suggests the closest Sherwin-Williams color—no actual custom color output. Even worse, it doesn’t allow you to save scanned images for future reference. This app had a lot of potential, but it falls short in key areas. A major letdown.

Although the app crashes frequently and requires pairing too often it has been a helpful tool. Especially with not being able to meet all of our clients. Color coordination is made easier wirelessly. I can put together folders for clients to review and choose from. I went so far as to color match our cabinet and tile samples so we can "translate" them into SW colors rather than attempt to describe them or depending on pictures that will vary with different monitors.

Won't do anything. It appears that it will not function without location enabled and permission to connect to other devices. Neither of these are necessary for its basic function and constitute a security risk if enabled. I do not recommend this app.
