What's New in Color Temperature Meter+

1.0.28

September 25, 2026

• Freeze now opens a result card: Kelvin, mired, light type and the matching camera white-balance preset, with Save Reading and Measure Again right there • A reading is only marked saved once it is really stored, and calibration is kept safely across restarts • Calibrate now waits for the live reading and takes a fresh frame after you tap, instead of failing while the meter was busy • Dates and times follow the app language, LED readings are labelled LED in Saved, and Czech, Danish, Finnish, Hebrew and Dutch are fully translated

User reviews

So daylight is 9700 Kelvin?

Amazing that daylight registers as 9700 K. No thanks!

Response from developer

Thanks for pointing this out. Color-temperature estimation from the camera can drift under mixed lighting; we're improving the white-balance calibration so daylight reads closer to ~5500–6500K. We appreciate the catch.

Simple

The simplicity of the app is why I like it.

Response from developer

Thank you! Simple and useful is exactly what we aim for. 🙏
