Explore paint colors, plan a mix and work out how to recreate a target color. ColorMixer brings mixing tools, hobby paint libraries and a flexible color picker into one app. MIX Choose your paints, explore blended colors and adjust their proportions. Use the recipe view to see percentages and parts, add ingredients and save a mix for later. UNMIX AND CONVERT Choose a target color to find a suggested recipe using basic colors or the colors in My Colors. Start with an existing paint to explore what you could add to move it toward a target. PICK AND FIND COLORS Use the color wheel, enter RGB, CMYK, HSL or hex values, or pick a color from a photo or the camera. Search paint libraries by name or code, including Tamiya, Mr. Color, Humbrol, Testors, Vallejo, AK and more. Paint-library updates arrive from our online catalog. MY COLORS AND SAVED RECIPES Keep favorite colors and mixing recipes together. Organize My Colors by brand or paint type, and sort by name, hue, brightness or date added. DESIGNED FOR IPHONE AND IPAD On iPhone, follow the familiar color selection, blend exploration and recipe flow. On iPad, keep ingredients and the live result side by side, with Explore and Recipe views in one workspace. The interface follows your system light or dark appearance. IPHONE DUO Keep working as you open or close iPhone Duo. A compact workspace fits the outer display, while the inner display gives you more room to pick colors, explore blends and adjust recipes. Your selected colors, proportions and current workspace stay with you. Mixing previews are estimates; the result of mixing physical paints can vary with the pigments and materials used.
