Color Vision

Every colour, by name.

Coming soon to Google Play. Privacy policy Terms of Service

Point your camera at anything, and Color Vision tells you its colour by name: tomato, teal, royal blue. Made for people who are colour-blind and need to tell others what colour something is, and for anyone who wants to sample a colour from the world.

Hold the square in the middle of the screen over the colour you want; the name appears at the bottom, with its colour family, its hex code and its red, green and blue levels.

What it does

  • 344 named colours in 16 families, the nearest to what the camera sees
  • The average of a small square, not a single noisy pixel
  • Tap to freeze the picture and the reading; tap the hex code to copy it
  • White balance for the light (daylight, cloudy, shade, fluorescent, incandescent) and the torch
  • Full screen, like a camera: nothing but the picture and the reading

What you need

  • An Android phone with a camera (Android 13 or later)

Colours through a camera depend on the light: the name is the nearest of the app's 344 colours.
