User Reviews

Color Muse’s app offers strong color matching and Pantone support, making it useful for professional paint matching and design workflows. However, recurring crashes, persistent device connectivity issues, and updates that remove features or require accounts severely disrupt usability and erode workflows, particularly for accessing history and saved colors.

Pros

Powerful color matching and comparison tools with multiple color models (LAB, LCH, RGB, CMYK) and delta E.
Pantone integration adds broad compatibility for printing/design work.
Valuable for real-world paint matching (interior design) and color-palette reference when used with the device.

Cons

Frequent crashes and force closes during scanning and data viewing.
Unreliable connectivity/pairing with the Color Muse device.
Major updates degrade usability by removing features or adding heavy onboarding and forcing account creation.
Access to history and saved colors is blocked or limited unless you sign in, and saving colors can be inconsistent.

Recent reviews

Can you please fix the app so it actually saves the scans… scans are there but all color and data (except notes) are gone. Would be great if I could actually save all the info instead of immediately taking screenshots and organizing / tracking them outside the app. Thank you.

I just painted a job that has 4 different Ben Moore colors and decided my first test of accuracy would be on this project. . Only 1 out of 5 did it have the correct color at the top of the list. The second color was in the suggestions but further down. The other 3 did not even show up. Two of them that did not even show up are the very popular colors White Dove and Silver half dollar. The other one was Ballet White. Sometimes it showed and other times it didn’t.
