Lacking complete freedom of creation.
This app was built for a quick use or if you want to just play around.
No way to customize the app for your needs, you can export more values than you can actually manipulate in app & you cannot even categorize/file palettes you’ve created. Which IMO is a necessity if you’re working with multiple aspects of a project.
The app isn’t sufficient for anyone wanting to use it for anything other than needing a quick way to identify a color.
I did unfortunately trust the 4.5 star review & pay the $2.99 for a subscription. It took me all of 3 minutes to realize it was a mistake.
If you’re wanting a palette app for important or large projects, this one is not it.

I’ve been using this app for quite a while and there are a couple of things worth noting.
• The app is a good way to save nice colours one happens to find while out and about.
• Just because a set of colours happens to exist in a photo does not mean those colours go well together. The world is full of glaring colour incompatibilities not worth perpetuating.
• When photographing colours it is essential to set the correct white balance on the camera or one cannot possible record the colours accurately. Not very many camera apps even have this capability. Ideally one should be using a white balance reference card and take a reading with the lighting at the scene falling on the card. This is the standard way of setting white balance on a real video camera or DSLR. Then one would use white balance lock or custom white balance to calibrate the camera or the captured colours may have no similarity to the colours seen at the photo location.
• What this app really needs is the ability to sample a particular colour of interest and then generate the complimentary or triad or other standard colour combinations from that. For my use that would make the app much more useful.
