### 5/5 — Best color match on the market

*2026-08-19, version 14.8.14*

Giordano architects highly recommends this sheer match unit for all of your painting needs  we only spec for 35 years Sherwin Williams the very best color match system and truly a high grade paint in all finishes..

### 5/5 — Wow!

*2026-08-10, version 14.8.14*

This app and device saved me from having to do a whole living-room ceiling as apposed to just the repair spot. The client couldn't were picky and saw the first match that I did and asked if I plan on matching the drywall patch to the rest of the ceiling. I said I may have to repaint the whole ceiling. They said the fine if I have to paint the whole ceiling. Then I bought this device, and after using it, they thought I had painted the whole ceiling. 

Home Depot couldn't match like this, and I have to go back and redo a job from a Home Depot color match that didn't match.

Sherwin customer for life!

### 1/5 — I have the device

*2026-08-06, version 14.8.14*

New app sucks. Buttons don’t work, recent scans not seen anywhere I could open. Now half as useful and if a subscription is “necessary” screw you.

### 1/5 — Greedy

*2026-07-09, version 14.7.5*

App works well enough.  Putting the custom color match behind a paywall after paying 120 dollars to sell more sherwin paint is the epitome of corporate greed.

### 1/5 — Total waste of time and money

*2026-06-26, version 14.7.5*

I’ve was hoping this was a game changer especially since I do rental properties but this device barely works as described. I take a scan go to Sherwin where they mix it, go to job paint wall and discover the sheen is way off and the color slightly off. I scan the new paint from Sherwin and compare and it shows difference between them. How does this work if the matched paint isn’t close. Don’t waste you time or $50 for an app. I’m honing back to using a cut out paint sample like before.

### 4/5 — Great addition to my tool bag

*2026-06-15, version 14.7.5*

I’ve used this tool on so many job sites. Very helpful

### 1/5 — Junk app

*2026-06-15, version 14.7.5*

Create an account just to not be able to color match

### 1/5 — Nothing bad against the app just mad it wasn’t useful unless I had some stupid accessories

*2026-05-24, version 14.6.4*

:(

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work with your built in camera

*2026-04-24, version 14.6.4*

You’d imagine you could use this with your built in camera after calibrating against a know color or something. No.

### 1/5 — App won’t work

*2026-03-23, version 14.13.21*

Tried to match a color for a client. Went and bought the shermatch tool, and the app will not work.
