Description:
Color Picker is a simple and convenient application for determining color through the camera or in the image.

Define color from multiple color palettes. In the base of colors more than 1000+ records from the most famous color palettes: Common colors, RAL Classic, HTML (W3C), Material Design and Traditional Japanese colors. At definition of the name of color the name of the most similar color from the chosen palette is displayed. Not sure what to choose? Use the Universal Color Preferences palette, which contains all the most well-known colors.

Dynamic sight. Just swipe your finger across the screen to change the scope. You can quickly find out the color at the center point or the average color of the entire selected area.

Define color in photos and images. Open the images you need and define / save the desired color anywhere on the image.

See extended color data. Just click on the triangle icon to go to advanced mode. It displays the color temperature, brightness, color value in various color models (RGB, CMYK, HSV and many others), as well as the degree of color matching (in percent) with the most similar color from the selected color palette.

Color details page. In addition to the extended data, it displays a list of similar colors. And the colors you have saved can be edited (do not forget to save the changes).

Search and browse colors in the database. Thanks to the search for the selected color palette, you will quickly find the desired color in the database.

Version 2.8.1

* Fixed disabling advertising (on some devices, it did not disappear). The ad unit is now completely removed from the activity hierarchy.
* In the previous version language selection was added (RU, EN). Useful if the locale of the smartphone and the desired language color base do not match.


PS: thanks to everyone who bought the ad disable! :)

And where is the RAL result hidden?



Rep: (61)
* Tyumen,
if you mean saved colors, then on the color page you can switch the palette. And if you need to save the selected palette, then in the menu you need to select the appropriate item.

Version 3.0.0

- Integration with the system dialog "Share". In the application, you can send text (search in the base of colors) or an image (select the color in the image).
- Added import / export CSV. You can transfer the whole story to another device. The data is readable and can be easily edited.
- Fully updated interface. New icons.
- Updated settings. Added explanations and tips. New setting: Fullscreen preview (enabled by default).
- Many minor fixes and improvements. Adaptation for Android 9.


The new version in the header and Google Play. For users who have graphic artifacts (Redmi devices), disable the full-screen preview and / or reduce its size. The point in the center was deleted. Many users did not know that you can change the size of the sight. I hope it will be clearer. In addition, she closed the review.

Version 3.1.4

Bug fixes continue :)

- Added an informational dialog for Xiaomi devices (shown at the first launch) with a description of the solution when the camera preview is displayed with artifacts. Anyway, the tips in the settings no one reads :(
- Fixed a dialog with a request to evaluate the application. Now, after clearing the application data, it will not be shown again immediately after launching the application (only after a couple of days). Previously, the installation date was taken from the system information, now the installation date is considered to be the first launch of the application.
- If you can not find an application to select an image (for example, a standard gallery is not installed) - the application now does not crash, but displays a warning message.


PS: install the app from Google Play better. I upload all intermediate and minor updates there first and only add relatively important releases to this topic.

Version 3.2.1

- Added clipping pixels outside the circle (disabled by default, see settings).Now I can say with full confidence that this application is the most accurate in Google Play. At least I have not seen applications that calculate the average color NOT from a rectangular area (or trivially from a central pixel).
- Added dynamic color change sight so that it was always visible.
- Added notification of successful or unsuccessful purchase. If an error occurs during the purchase, it will be clearly displayed.
- Fixed the minimum size of the sight when choosing a color from the image. And on the tablets the standard size of the sight is slightly larger ...


GIFs (open in a new tab) to make it clear how clipping pixels outside a circle affects accuracy

As it was before - the pixels for the sample were taken from a rectangular area which is described around the circle (picture for clarity). Watch for color naming.

As it became now (by default, the cut-off is disabled because it reduces performance, especially for large sizes of sight)

Version 3.3.1

- Optimized the algorithm for clipping pixels from the circle of sight. Now the speed of the round and square sight is the same. And with large sizes, the round is even slightly faster.
- Added the ability to select the shape of the sight: Circle (selected by default), Square and Point (very unreliable due to noise, but it may be useful to someone, for example, for taking a point color from images). The shape of the sight clearly shows from which area the color is taken.

* STALKER2011x,
the last two posts relate to one version or should be3.2.2 ?



Rep: (61)
* st0p0r, thanks corrected. Forgot to change after copying :)
PS: I will immediately answer the question why I sometimes skip versions. Numbers mean major.minor.bugfixes, and here I do not publish intermediate versions with minor bugfixes, only important updates or fixes for critical bugs.

* STALKER2011x,
On my device (Xiaomi Mi 6), the focus does not work at all until you assign a macro to it.
and on the RAL table there has never been a match.
maybe it depends on the camera or on the lighting, but the fact ...

On my device (Xiaomi Mi 6), the focus does not work at all until you assign a macro to it.

By default, continuous autofocus is always used (the camera always focuses on the center point). Unfortunately, this does not work on all devices. The application uses the outdated Camera1 API (for the sake of greater compatibility with all devices), apparently in some devices the vendor did not fully implement it.

St0p0r @ 04.02.19, 16:39*
or from lighting

It. Locking the exposure (so that the brightness does not skip) and the manually set white balance (calibrated on a sheet of white paper) will help increase the accuracy, but do not expect professional quality (for this usespecial external cameras). You can even increase the size of the sight to reduce camera noise.
PS: and the displayed color may be distorted due to screen filters (night mode, reading mode, etc.).

* STALKER2011x,
so many nuances ... there is no need to wait for a miracle ...
but thanks anyway for the program!

The application with amazing accuracy determines the color! Even on the old photos identified RAL ...
While I leave the program, it can be useful.

* gmikhail94, Tell me, is there an latest version without ads?



Rep: (61)
* Asteroid7117, You can disable advertising in the application (for a fee), or simply prohibit the application from accessing the Internet. There will be no broken versions here because I am the developer of this application.
