## Description

SherMatch+ is a professional color-matching tool from Sherwin-Williams that helps painters and contractors quickly identify the closest color and sheen. With the SherMatch+ device, you can scan flat, painted surfaces and instantly match to a Sherwin-Williams color—without patching or repainting. Free features include connecting your SherMatch+ or ColorSnap device, finding the nearest color, measuring sheen on supported devices, saving and organizing colors, viewing coordinating options, and previewing colors in room settings; plus, you can locate the nearest Sherwin-Williams store.

Plus+ Subscription (Coming February 2026) unlocks custom paint colors, generates a QR code redeemable at stores in the U.S., Canada, Puerto Rico, and the Caribbean, and eliminates extra trips and patching. Subscription details: Free through May 31, 2026; Monthly $4.99; Annual $49.99. Designed for interior and exterior applications on residential and commercial projects, the extension works with ColorSnap Match and ColorSnap Match Pro and requires a SherMatch+ device for custom color matching. Sheen measurement is supported by SherMatch+ and ColorSnap Match Pro.

## Review summary

User reviews repeatedly point to a hardware requirement as the biggest drawback: color matching only works with a separate Sherwin-Williams scanner (often around $50), not with a phone camera. Many say this is a bait-and-switch since the app previously allowed camera-based matching and photo uploads. The UX is criticized as not user-friendly, with mandatory account creation and unclear pricing; multiple reviewers feel the app is worth it only for pros who need color-matching on jobs. Despite the hardware requirement, several reviews note the device pairs easily and the matches can be close enough for professional use.

### Pros

- Device pairs easily with the Sherwin-Williams color-matching scanner; setup is straightforward.
- Useful for professionals (painters/remodelers) to match colors and save trips.
- Color matches can be close to wall colors and work across non-SW paints.

### Cons

- Must buy an extra hardware scanner to use color matching; phone camera alone is not supported.
- The app UX is not user-friendly and requires account creation with unclear pricing; limited free options.
- The app is seen as a downgrade from the old ColorSnap Visualizer, with reduced photo-based matching functionality.
