Good, but...
Apple-Jack
Accurate RGB measurement. Easy to use. But sending color swatch by email to MS Outlook does not transmit the color, while sending it to another iPhone does. Suggestion: include option to turn on the LED flash so program can be independent of burnt light.
....Even Better Now

My previous review stands. Thank you developers for optimizing for the iPhone/iPod 5. (:
An odd app
ursadog
I am not really sure where this app is aimed. The live updating of colors using the camera is admittedly brilliant. There is some spatial averaging but it would be nice if there was also temporal averaging, otherwise you need a steady hand if you are trying to determine the color of something patterned. You can determine more than just the RGB code but if you want, say, the html code, you have to write it down or snap a picture and go to the cameral roll and read it off the saved photo. The only way to view saved colors, strangely, is in the edit mode (where you normally go to delete colors) and the only info available is the RGB color. I have no idea what the "lock/auto" buttons do. The website mentions something about organizing colors on the edit page but, besides deleting them, the only thing you can do is email them. That doesn't qualify as organizing to me. Anyway, odd….
Much better!

With the “temporal” averaging, the measurements are much more readable. And the ability to save multiple sets of colors, with names! Keep adding cool stuff!!
