Frequently asked questions
Is the camera color picker free? +
Yes. It is completely free with no signup, no account and no limits.
Do you upload my camera feed or photos? +
No. The camera stream and any image you choose are read directly in your browser. Nothing is ever sent to a server.
How accurate are the color codes? +
They are a close approximation. Phone cameras auto-adjust white balance and exposure, so the reading reflects what the camera sees, not a lab colorimeter. Use the freeze button and even lighting for the steadiest result.
Which browsers and devices work? +
Any modern mobile or desktop browser with camera support over HTTPS, including Safari on iPhone and Chrome on Android. If the camera is unavailable you can upload an image instead.
Can I get the nearest paint or CSS color name? +
Yes. Every sample shows the closest standard CSS color name alongside the exact HEX, RGB and HSL values.
How do I pick a color from an existing photo? +
Choose “Upload an image instead” and tap anywhere on the photo to sample that pixel — the same HEX, RGB and HSL output appears.
