Trying out a bunch of color pickers and this app is a keeper. A lot of others were a clear delete. . . immediately. . It's a wonder to me why everyone can't deside on a format for the various kinds of . . . color formats. It's color format inception out there kids. This app helps with that exact problem in a very straight forward way. This handy little app is super easy to use, and allows me to quickly sample a color from my screen, copy it's HEX or RGB credentials, and paste into my code editor. I've tried a few other color pickers, and this one's the best. My new fave. Thank you. . |
Looks like a great app and others seem to like it, but I could not get it to open on my system. Downloaded it several times. Would give me an inital screen and then crash, never to open again. . |

Great tool, but with a BUG
I use M1 macs. I have an M1 PC, an Air, and an M1 Max PC, and this tool works well. However, I often forget that I even have it because it never auto-opens when I open the Windows; no matter how many times I turn it on, it goes back to turn off. And it seems like the developer abandoned the app/tool. It is excellent but, sadly, left behind. Because even the dark mode is broken at the moment. I might have to build one myself, for that matter. (Right now trying to use an app called Sip), I hope it does work well and open at login. It is 10 dollars, but I'm willing to pay for it.
Nice and minimalist, but...
I really like the look of this app, and how little screen real-estate it takes up. My biggest problem with it however is there is no color history. Color history is something I use all the time, so to me this is a deal breaker which is a shame.
My favorite picker, but seems to have been abandoned
I'm experiencing the "launch at startup" bug other users have mentioned, on an M1 Windows. I also wish I had the option to see the Hex code, live, when using the color picker.
It's a keeper

Innacurate, permissions absent, custom copy
Measured colors were discordant with system Digital Color Meter and Affinity Designer. Changing color profiles didn't change outcome. Oddly, the app does not ask for screen recording permissions, which would be required for its functionality.
