Color Grab user reviews :

Love this app. When it comes to finding just the right color for that painting project. Saves a ton of time running back to the paint store to pick up more color chips. It is also helpful for cross-referencing paint color from one paint brand to another. The only thing it doesn’t do is allow you to paint colors onto a photo like the Color Smart app does, but in every other way, this is the only color selection app you’ll ever need.

Sooooo much better than I ever hoped for! It is so intuitive and user-friendly your first time that it kind of blew me away. Whoever did the design just knocked it out of the park because I pretty much knew how to use each button even though they were not labeled and I had not looked at any instructions or guide or anything. That, to me, is a hallmark of excellent app design. Well done!! I also had no idea that in the settings you could change the color library to almost any of the relevant ones

Not intuitive, but, once you figure it out, it’s interesting. You will need to use the flashlight for indoor items. It says that it needs to calibrate using a white surface, but, no matter which such I use, including white vinyl siding in total sunlight, it always says that the object is “too dark”! I like that it saves the colors, but, aim at the same thing twice and you’ll get variations. Still, this is close to what I needed, so, beggars can’t be (color!) choosers.

This is an impressive app! It gives an extremely detailed analysis of the accurate color(s) of whatever item you are scanning for color matching. This is going to make painting, decorating and color coordination easier and more precise than ever. I am actually excited to go get paint that’s going to match even the oddest and rarest colors I can come up with.

It’s interesting, but some settings like “color list item” and “reference catalogue” seem to have no effect. I’d like to control the names of colors that get detected, but there doesn’t seem to be a way to do that. “Zumthor” means nothing to me. Last, the addition of Pantone would be nice, but I suspect there’s a licensing fee issue. Also, there doesn’t seem to be a way to control which of my cameras it uses (wide, closeup) or which processing happens before the image reaches the app.

This app is almost perfect. The layout is really easy to use and works like a charm. Only issue is that once you grab all the colours from an image and go to the screen with your colour selection that you can’t seem to just press a ‘back’ button and go back to the same photo. Instead you have to retrieve it from your phone’s storage again. Fix this and I will give it full stars.

• Dear User, really appreciate your suggestion. We will consider it and improve our app in the new version. If you have questions or suggestions please contact us at contact[at]loomatix.com.

The best color calibration I’ve found around. Using a phone camera is always a bad idea, since it’s by definition uncalibrated and the software does a lot of unwanted, unpredictable correction which is impossible to turn off without access to raw data and a camera profile. This app has a nifty white calibration which neutralizes most of this and, for a ballpark color finding, it is more than enough.
