Total waste of money

Color selector is not at all accurate. Placed over an obvious blue and it showed green.


Any color under the Rainbow

Pick a color, any Color this app will recipe the mix! Perfect!


Awesome color app!!
Koko&Mimi

With this app, I'm able to figure out the color palette that I like now!


Okay, but needs a feature badly.

After you've loaded a photo and gotten a color sample, the photo is forgotten. If you want to get an additional color sample from the same photo you have to dig through your photos and load it again. It assumes you won't get more than one sample from a single photo.


Excellent tool

This is a must have if you want to mix colors from primaries without a lot of guess work. The only thing I think it needs is the ability to select your primary colors. I have a set of warm and cool primaries, and different people like to use different primaries when mixing. A choice of whites would also be helpful. Of course for such a tool I'd pay more too!


Nice App!

I found this app to be very helpful when mixing colors. I agree that having the option to choose the primary colors (warm and cool of each primary) would make it even better. Well worth the small price I paid for it. Try it!


Convenient and useful

This app is basically Shazam for colors. It allows you to get the exact make up of a color when you see it. One of the best features is the ability to sample colors from a photo to get the perfect color you are looking for. It's also super user friendly, even for not so tech-savvy people like myself.


Great app but just one
Mad Fx Man

Thing ...after picking the preset color ,the wheel the scale is spaced too far apart making the color change too extreme ,instead of gradual I gave it five because this is an easy fix and it'll be great after that....


Better than nothing but needs more options on gradations
WillaWall

needs the RBG color standard nos. as well as the %


Polymer clay
Gram8591

Great app to use to mix correct parts of clay colors to get a different color. Most apps are for computer graphics. Only wish black were included to mix with white to get shades of gray. I'm not using photos yet to grab color from. Just trying out different combos for the clay just as someone would mix paint.
