Great App!

Simple, straightforward and accurate. Thank you to the developer.

5 Stars!

This is the best app for colour recognition! It gives you the Lab value which I need the most but you don't find in other similar apps. Thank you so much!

Easy to use

Hi,

This is a great tool; easy to use and a great resource for anyone who wants to identify an exact colour in a photo. Thanks for developing this tool!

App.

Unable to open.

Very interesting application

Very interesting application. It can help me create my colors from the primary colors for my paintings.

Suggestion: when I click on a color, I would like to choose in which mode appears above the photo. For a painter it would be better if the CMYK mode is displayed first?
Could you do that?
