Color Picker

App to identify color from camera or image with many extra features

Color Picker is a powerful Chrome extension that allows users to identify colors directly from their camera or uploaded images. It features a vast database of over 1000 entries from popular color palettes like RAL Classic, HTML (W3C), and Material Design, ensuring accurate color recognition from a variety of standards.

Users can dynamically adjust the scope size and shape—circle, square, or dot—to capture either a precise center pixel or the average color of a selected area. The expert mode provides detailed scientific color data, including color temperature in Kelvin, coordinates on the optical spectrum, and color model values like RGB, CMYK, and HSV, along with matching accuracy percentages.

Additional features include advanced camera controls for focus and white balance to improve color accuracy, image import for color picking with full gesture support, and management of saved colors with editing, sharing, and CSV import/export capabilities. The intuitive search functionality lets users find colors by HEX code or name seamlessly. Please note, actual colors may vary due to device color rendition differences, so use accordingly.

I use this to better understand what color shadows and light areas really are in reference photos I'm using for an art project. It works great for this!

A very great app for anyone who just want to know color without getting confused by tools, it also includes so much color palette for different design purposes. feedback: a material design 3 UI refresh would be nice, including the color palette that is still on material 2.
