Drop a photo, click anywhere to read its exact HEX and RGB colour, and
grab an auto-extracted palette of the picture’s main colours. Nothing is
uploaded.
How to use the colour picker
- Drop an image above, or tap to choose one from your gallery.
- Click — or drag your finger — anywhere on the image to read the colour under it.
- Tap the HEX or RGB code to copy it, or copy any swatch from the auto palette below.
HEX and RGB, explained
Every colour on screen can be written as a HEX code like
#1F1D18 — the form websites and CSS use — or as an
RGB triplet like rgb(31, 29, 24), which lists how
much red, green and blue it contains. This tool gives you both for any
pixel, so you can paste straight into whatever design or code tool you’re
using.
Build a palette in seconds
Below your image we work out its dominant colours automatically and show
them as a palette. It’s the fast way to pull a colour scheme out of a
photo, a logo or a screenshot — for a website, a poster or a matching
brand look. Everything happens on your own device, so even private
images never leave your phone or computer.
Frequently asked questions
How do I pick a colour from an image?
Drop your image in, then click (or drag your finger) anywhere on it. The exact colour under your cursor is shown as a swatch with its HEX and RGB codes — tap either code to copy it.
What is the colour palette below the image?
It’s the set of dominant colours in your photo, worked out automatically. It’s handy for building a matching design, theme or brand palette. Tap any swatch to copy its HEX code.
What’s the difference between HEX and RGB?
They describe the same colour two ways. HEX (like #1F1D18) is the compact form used in websites and CSS. RGB (like rgb(31, 29, 24)) lists the red, green and blue amounts and is common in design apps. Copy whichever your tool expects.
Is my image uploaded anywhere?
No. The image is read and analysed entirely inside your browser using your own device. Nothing is sent to a server, so it’s private and works offline once the page has loaded.
Which image formats work?
JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF and AVIF all work. Transparent areas are ignored when building the palette so the colours you get are the real ones in the picture.
