Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Pixel Picker at 4.4 against Color's 4.0. Pixel Picker also leads on ratings volume (179 vs 4) and iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). Color's advantage is update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Pixel Picker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Color sells 3 one-off in-app purchases. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Pixel Picker holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Pixel Picker has 179 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two.
Pixel Picker ships an update every 2 months, Color every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 26, 2026 and October 4, 2026 respectively.
