Tap a photo to pick exact colors
Open a saved image, screenshot, artwork, or camera photo and tap the precise pixel area you want. ColorSnap turns that selected point into a practical color result instead of making you estimate by eye.

Photo Color Picker App for Android
ColorSnap lets you tap an image to pick exact colors from gallery photos or camera captures. Copy the HEX color code, compare RGB values, and keep useful colors for your next project.
Copy color codes quickly
The picker shows HEX, RGB, HSL and CMYK values so you can move from a photo to a design file, CSS variable, app style, or shared note with less friction.
Keep the workflow simple
ColorSnap is focused on practical Android color picking: identify a color, copy the code, save favorites, and continue designing or building without login screens or account friction.
