Fixed a bug that caused the screen to shift when launching the app in landscape orientation on an iPad. Changed the color of the toolbar when in dark mode.

fun to show others

as someone who’s colorblind, i get the question “what color is this? what do you see?” a lot. Whenever this question gets brought up i just show them this app and let them look around. The reactions are always fun and it’s always interesting to hear what they have to say. It’s really helpful understanding what i’m missing out as well. The reactions from other people tells me that i see the world in very dull colors.

Please add a video function

I’ve been using this app for about a year now to help people understand colorblindness and it is so much easier and more effective than trying to tell people verbally what the world looks like to me. I really think the cherry on top of this app would be to add a function where we could export videos using the colorblind filters, as I have not been able to find any other application that provides that feature.

サイコーです

毎日使ってます!!

Amazing easy accessibility tool

So many over-complicated colorblind simulators out there but this one outperforms them all. It’s simple and no frills, has three colorblind type variations, and the combo of camera and photo library options means I can basically test anything I need to when it comes to color accessibility. This tool is a godsend for anyone working in digital compliance!

FAQ

What does the Chromatic Vision Simulator app do?

This app simulates the color vision of individuals with various color vision deficiencies. It allows you to see how people with conditions like protanopia, deuteranopia, or tritanopia perceive colors, using either your device's live camera feed or existing photos.

What types of color vision deficiencies can this app simulate?

The app simulates three major categories of color vision deficiencies: protanope/protanomal (red-green deficiency), deuteranope/deuteranomal (red-green deficiency), and tritanope/tritanomal (blue-yellow deficiency).

Is this app free to use?

Yes, the Chromatic Vision Simulator app is available for free. It does not feature in-app purchases or advertisements.

Who would benefit from using this app?

This app is beneficial for individuals who want to understand color vision deficiencies better. This includes people with color blindness themselves, their friends and family, educators, designers, and anyone interested in the science of color perception.

How does the app simulate color vision?

The simulation is based on research in color science and calculates how cone cells, responsible for color perception, would function with different types of color vision deficiencies. This allows for a predictable visualization of how colors are perceived differently.
