### 4/5 — Love it but crashes

*2023-04-28, version 6.00*

The app is great for colour options and being able to make palettes of colour that you create! I love it for that! however, when saving the palette quite often the app crashes. It crashes over and over again. It can be frustrating to use it

### 3/5 — NO UPDATES FOR FOUR YEARS

*2017-05-21, version 5.01*

Suspect the originator died. Never used it. I'm deleting it.

### 4/5 — Powerful!!! But a learning curve.

*2016-06-09, version 5.01*

This app has a lot more features than any other like it. Whether I need a color palette based on a photo, or from a specific hex code, it does it and WAY MORE!!!
It would be even better if it was a little more user friendly; even some tutorials would help. 
Great app though!!

### 4/5 — Great

*2014-11-19*

A great product and extremely useful

### 3/5 — Pas mal

*2014-10-15*

Mais en français se serais mieux pour ceux qui débute et ne comprenne pas encore bien le concept.

### 3/5 — Très bien mais!

*2014-07-02*

Lors d'une sélection de couleur sur une photo le point d'attraction de la pipette est sous le doigt ce qui est gênant. Sinon cela permet de créer et d'exporter ses palettes. Très bien pour les coloristes.

### 5/5 — Great apps

*2014-05-06, version 5.01*

Covers it all! Photos, web sites and more!

### 4/5 — parfait

*2014-03-26*

pour moi, qui l'utilise pour peindre ... je trouve ce logiciel formidable

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2014-03-01*

Отличное приложение!!! Скачал бесплатно, но оно стоит того, чтобы за него заплатить! Рекомендую всем, кто работает с веб-дизайном, и не только)

### 5/5 — Налетай, подешевело

*2013-12-07*

:-)

### 5/5 — То, что нужно!

*2013-10-04*

Лучшее приложение своего рода для творческого человека! Использую теперь только его! Спасибо!

### 5/5 — the best.

*2013-09-01, version 4.00*

very well done, love it.

### 5/5 — Way cool!

*2013-08-23*

I didn't even know there was a color called 'Forrest', but there it is right in one of my pics! Good to know

### 1/5 — Unstable and Confusing

*2018-01-13*

On the iPhone 7, iOS 11.2.1, it keeps crashing when analyzing photos and saving pallets. It also has a very confusing interface. Not very intuitive at all, still not sure what it all does. I’m sorry I wasted the money.

### 1/5 — Not great for a pay app

*2017-03-14*

I didn't find too many apps for color analysis so tried this one. It's functional so good if it was free but not great as a pay app
Problems I found are:
-You can't see photo information so if you are trying to detect differences between similar photos you are screwed ( can't tell name of the photo, date or time)
-The analysis area is square so if you are looking at a rectangle photo, you can only analyze the portion the program selects
-You can make adjustments to the photo but can't save them
-It only has 8 bit color
-your finger is above the pick location so it's hard to dynamically tell where you are picking from
-you can't pick a single pixel so not sure if it is using an average or what font the result

**Developer response:** Thank you for your suggestions.  We will consider them for a future update.

### 1/5 — Really a mistake

*2015-07-03, version 5.01*

I input yellow and blue to be mixed up as an oil paint, and what I got is grey colour (RGB) not GREEN colour.  Really need to fix that, there are light source colors that mix differently and there are solids colors more like paints that mix and produce totaly different colors. If you use primary colors BLUE, RED and YELLOW, in paint you get black if you shine it as light where all three overlap you get white color.  FIX THAT OTHERWISE YOUR APP IS WORTHLESS TO PEOPLE WHO USE PAINT AS ARTISTS

### 1/5 — Color Analyzer and converter

*2015-04-23, version 5.01*

Very frustrating app. Limited in possibilities and unfriendly
Save your money

### 1/5 — iPad rotation makes UI go nuts.

*2012-11-04, version 3.51*

It supports landscape mode, yet the UI does not resize correctly.

### 1/5 — Fun apps

*2012-07-05*

Do not get this app it is a waste of time. I would not have gave this app no stars.

### 1/5 — 名前に嘘偽り有り（コンバータ？）

*2012-05-06*

色彩の作成、解析は行ってくれる。で、名前にも付いてる、コンバータは？どこをどうやったらコンバータ出来るの？

### 2/5 — What a waste of money

*2017-01-10, version 5.01*

If you are considering using this as a pallet generator for use in digital paintings then move along. This is an old app that doesn't appear to have any new development and is dead. Good concept, poor implementation for painting.

### 2/5 — iPhone 6 glitch made it useless

*2015-07-15, version 5.01*

Works great with iPhone6 camera but won't work with my photo album. And the stupid "write a review" made me write this twice because my first "nickname" was already taken. Really???

### 2/5 — I'm sorry, this is very disappointing.

*2013-09-09*

Firstly it's not very clear how to use this app and the interface is not very intuitive.
Secondly it seems that some of the functionality is either missing or needs a good explanation as to what it actually does.
After a bit of fiddling I selected a photo and pressed "Analyse".
Not entirely sure what it did since I couldn't find a palette generated from that photo but what the hey, I figured put how to select individual colours from my photo and create my own palette. Again, not very clear how to do this.
Then I tried "Analyse and Save". Save what? Save where? Doe this do anything different than plain old "Analyse"?
Then I had a play with trying to save my palettes elsewhere - in particular to the camera roll.
Eventually I found an option to "Copy Palette as Images". Copy to where? Did not seem to do anything.

Sorry for the negative review. I think this app has great potential but just needs a little work. Will re-review on update.

### 5/5 — Fascinating

*2019-08-10*

I am not a design professional but enjoy this app AND find it quite useful. Photographed my stonework fireplace, zoomed in on minuscule bits (mortar, select stones) and used the app to get the precise color mix for matching paints.  The other features take it to a higher level by helping explore other possible color options.   Great job developers!

### 5/5 — Bug fixed

*2017-09-29*

Works well.

**Developer response:** An update has been released with 64 bit support and bug fixes.

### 5/5 — I love this app

*2017-04-01, version 5.01*

It really needs an upgrade, please.

### 5/5 — My favorite new app

*2016-09-06*

It does what I want it to. Grab colors from your image or a website and save them multiple times ways. The only feature i would add is a semantic list of stored palettes. Thanks for this amazing app.

### 5/5 — Great

*2016-09-05*

Very useful. Colour scanning from photos and camera is an awesome feature

### 5/5 — One of the better colour tools for iOS

*2015-12-18, version 5.01*

Works well for creating colour schemes from scratch, or images.  In response to the other review mentioning an issue with mixing paint colours;  there is an option to mix as light (for digital mixing) or as paint.  I tested a few combinations and it worked fine.  Check above the resultant colour for the paint/light mixing option.

### 5/5 — Excellent on iPhone 6 plus: 1 Request

*2015-10-27*

Truly amazingly useful!
Only one disappointment for me. The app maxes out (stops processing) at less than 5 megabytes of data. It does notify you about this - without crashing - but for my use it really requires a way to store its terrific data in a retrievable database on iPhone. So much disk space is available, won't you let us use it? Please...Won't you? Then I would readily update my review to reflect a very substantial expanded usability. BTW, thanks for including such granular editing capability ;-)

### 5/5 — Compagnon de couleur

*2015-06-28*

Très intéressant

### 5/5 — Just take a photo or select a color and it creates a pallet!

*2014-12-05*

I cannot believe that someone has finally managed to come up with an app that does exactly what I needed it to do! I have been trying to choose paint colors for my home for about a year now. This app makes it so incredibly easy! Worth the money and more!

### 5/5 — Phenomenal

*2014-11-25*

I truly hope they update this app again soon; I've been using it for several years now and it is one of the most useful apps for design in my arsenal. Helped me profusely when designing and creating websites on-the-go through my iPhone.
