Frequently asked questions
What is a HEX color code?
A HEX color code is a six-digit value (e.g. #FF5733) used in web design, CSS, and graphic tools to represent a specific colour. The digits encode the red, green, and blue (RGB) components in hexadecimal. HEX codes are the most widely used colour format on the web.
What is an RGB color code?
RGB stands for Red, Green, Blue. An RGB code (e.g. rgb(255, 87, 51)) represents a colour as three numbers between 0 and 255 — one per channel. It is widely used in CSS, digital design, photo editing software, and display calibration.
Is this colour picker really free?
Yes — completely free. There is no account, no signup, no watermark, and no software to install. The tool runs entirely in your browser and your images are never uploaded to any server.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. The colour picker is fully mobile-responsive. Upload any image from your phone's camera roll, tap a pixel, and the HEX and RGB codes appear instantly. The screen picker (EyeDropper) is not available on mobile browsers yet.
Can I pick a colour from anywhere on my screen?
Yes, in Chrome and Edge on desktop you can use the "Pick from screen" button. This activates the native EyeDropper API, letting you sample any colour visible on your screen — including outside the browser window.
Is my image kept private?
Completely. Your image is processed locally in your browser using the HTML5 Canvas API. Nothing is ever sent to a server. This tool works entirely offline once the page has loaded.
