About this app

What color is that? Point your camera and know — instantly.

Color Picker turns your camera into a real-world eyedropper. Aim it at a wall, fabric, paint chip or anything around you: the app reads the color in real time and tells you its name and exact values.

◆ KEY FEATURES

• Live color detection — reads the color at the center of the camera preview in real time
• Color names you can say out loud — every pick is matched to the closest of 95 color names using the CIEDE2000 color-distance standard
• HEX / RGB / HSV — switch formats with one tap, copy with one tap
• Freeze — tap the preview to lock the frame and exposure, then pick the color calmly
• Capture & palette — save up to 30 colors; your palette is kept permanently, even after restarting the app
• Pick from photos — open a picture from your gallery and fine-tune the pick point by dragging
• Color detail — complementary, analogous, triadic, split-complementary and tetradic harmonies, plus WCAG contrast vs white and black
• Share — send one color or your whole palette as text to any app
• Flashlight toggle for dark scenes
• Accessibility built in — color names are always shown next to the numbers, and the app works with the TalkBack screen reader

◆ MADE FOR

• Home & interior — match wall paint, furniture and curtains; take the exact color to the paint store instead of a vague memory
• Designers — grab real-world colors as HEX and paste them straight into your tools
• Artists & students — study a color's hue, saturation and value before mixing paint
• Fashion & beauty — name colors confidently and explore matching combinations
• Color-blind users — get a reliable color name without having to ask anyone
• Crafts & DIY — save yarn, fabric and paint colors and compare them side by side

◆ TIPS FOR ACCURATE READINGS

A camera sees "surface color × lighting", so the same wall can read differently under morning sun and a warm bulb. For best results use bright, even lighting, avoid shadows and reflections, and tap to freeze for a stable reading.

◆ PERMISSIONS & PRIVACY

• Camera — used only to read colors; nothing is recorded or uploaded
• Photos — only the images you explicitly select are opened
• Ads — a single small banner; no full-screen ads, ever
