If you feel the need to alert the developer about a bug use the feedback forum instead of writing a review.

ColorPick needs permission on all websites so that it is at the ready when you need it. In order to use the tabs API this permission is required. Color pick does not abuse this permission and is highly configurable. You can always review the source code yourself, which is available online here https://github.com/qufighter/ColorPick PRs welcome!

Please note that colors are picked from a snapshot of the page that is updated only when you scroll. To take a new snapshot press r or use the re-snap button. Sometimes if you just changed tabs, you may see a snapshot error - this is an intentional security feature. Press R or scroll to correct this, or exit color pick and try again.

As with most extensions of this nature, it will not work out of the box on the web store, or on file:// pages. It will work on local file pages only after you "Allow access to file URLs" from the tools->extensions manager.

If you experience an issue, try the following:

  • Try a new website in a different tab and see if it works there
  • Try the same website in a new tab and see if that works
  • Reloading the extension or tab may sometimes be needed

If you need to operate on unsupported pages try the desktop app version (mac+pc) at color-pick.com or if you are selecting colors from screenshots, images or photos try the mobile phone/tablet app for IOS and Android - search the store for "ColorPick" (which also includes color based mini games).

I love this extension and I appreciate the founder... I Have been using this extension more than a year now, and it has been one of my best extension ever incluidng Image downloader. But taking a look at the two extension, I discovered it says "This extension may soon no longer be supported because it doesn't follow best practices for Chrome extensions." Pls the owner should quickly update it because I don't want to lose this extension. I even wonder why some people are giving it bad review but to me, I will surely recommend him for others because it's the best. Thank you
