I really like the new approach to building color pallets by using the camera. Unfortunately this app was not working well on iPhone5. I reported the issue and in less than 10 days the App was updated and the problem fixed! Great job! ### 4/5 — Love it... But can't use it... *2016-04-25* The app is really cool. But after the first use, it started to crash. Now, I can't even open it... Fix that guys! Please^^ ### 4/5 — Typing a specific colour value *2016-04-25* Eventually discovered the swipe left once a colour has been generated to permit access to editing/typing a specific colour value. Therefore increased product rating from 3 to 4 out of 5. ### 5/5 — Incredibly well executed app *2016-04-21* Fun to use, intuitive, simple and does its job. Especially the camera feature feels almost magical. Bravo! ### 5/5 — I love the "real world" eyedropper :) *2016-04-21, version 1.0* Fun! ### 5/5 — As non-designers perspective *2016-04-21* As someone who generally can't figure out a color scheme more involved than "black on white", I love this app. I've been using the web version for a while for small projects by myself and now the phone app seems like it's been improved in every way. Making palettes with the camera... Being able to quickly sends palettes to other people... Plus, beautifully designed. I think this will be a staple on my home screen for a long time to come. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Would give less than one star *2020-06-21, version 1.1* Not working well at all. I don’t even know what this app could be useful for - certainly not what they advertise it to be. Constantly crashes (as in not responding to touching screen etc). Useless piece of junk. ### 1/5 — Disappointed. Hope for good updates in the future *2019-08-18, version 1.1* I really hoped this app would allow me to type hex codes and have the app suggest colors to go with ones I have chosen. I feel there are not enough controls in the app, like being able to go back and see which way to move fingers for color changes, name palettes, more than 3 colors per palette. Also, not sure if this is a me problem but one I found a color I liked I could not shift through light/dark colors, maybe needs better directions? ### 1/5 — Приложение не работает! *2019-03-06* Программа хорошая, регулярно ей пользуюсь на компьютере. Но скаченное приложение не работает! Вылетает при захождении ### 1/5 — Very disappointed *2017-01-06, version 1.1* I need to extract color from pictures I've already taken. As of this review, this app can not use pictures in your library. It only picks a color from the camera. I really hope they make this available in the near future. Otherwise, this app is useless for me. ### 1/5 — Very buggy *2016-04-26* I'm not sure if it's because I've just updated my OS (9.3.1) but every action I performed, even the onboarding, was really glitchy and buggy. Opening camera, tapping screen... Just all a mess. Lovely idea though and I will hope for an update. ### 2/5 — Crash Crash Crash *2018-09-23, version 1.1* It crashes automatically when I try to open it. Before the update to iOS12 it worked great. Now it’s useless. ### 2/5 — It's not what I expected from description *2017-04-29, version 1.1* I thought you could choose a color and the then the app would offer suggestions for various color palettes to choose from as inspiration. This doesn't "create" anything really; you're doing all the work. Not as helpful as I thought ### 3/5 — Some bugs with the newer versions of iOS *2019-12-14, version 1.1* It hasn’t been updated for a while which is probably why. It still works for the most part, but it hangs for example when trying to close the dialog pane after exporting. Other than that I can see it’s a fine app, and leaving this in case the author can find time to update it. ### 3/5 — Bom, mas poderia ser melhor *2016-05-21* Ele é muito simples e não faz muito mais que outros concorrentes gratuitos fazem. Poderiam atualizar e deixá-lo mais completo. Com paletas dinâmicas como o Adobe Color. ### 4/5 — Solid app. *2017-01-11, version 1.1* This is one of the better color pallets apps I've used. The color control feels intuitive and natural on the iPad. There are a few improvements I would like to see: Being able to choose a color from Camera Roll photos and being able to rearrange the colors within the pallets. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Simple and ease of use *2017-06-06* A simple but great way to get colors from my surrounding! Saves them as swatches that you can later use on design apps! Awesome work! ### 5/5 — Love it *2017-02-08, version 1.1* Very intuitive. Very clean ### 5/5 — Graphic Design Essential *2016-10-25, version 1.1* This saves time and helps me imagine new color schemes and virtual designs. I plan to recommend this app to multiple friends and colleagues. ### 5/5 — Simple to use, beautifully designed. *2016-06-09* A well thought out app that can be used by creatives in the real world as a tool. It's very simple to use and is beautifully designed. ### 5/5 — Really fantastic tool *2016-05-15* I've just read the developers story on his blog and thought I'd check it out. What a brilliant little app; smooth, reliable and a pleasure to use. Great work - keep 'em coming. ### 5/5 — Super simple, very useful *2016-05-05* Love how you can snap a colour using the camera and create a palette on the fly. Great UX, nicely put together. ### 5/5 — Great! So easy! *2016-04-26, version 1.0* Wow this is by far the best color picker I've used on any system in thirty plus years of computing -- immediately intuitive and responsive -- a steal at the price! The only thing I see missing is the ability to duplicate an existing color as a starting point for a new one. ### 5/5 — 👍 *2016-04-22, version 1.0* Yum. ### 5/5 — Brilliant Start *2016-04-21* Simplicity reigns in this touch-friendly color creator. *Project folders would aid productivity imho. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2016-04-21* I've always loved the web version and finally I get to bring it with me in my pocket. Wonderfully simple and well executed. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
