What Is the Image Color Picker?
The Image Color Picker is a free browser-based tool that lets you extract exact colors
from any photograph, screenshot, or design mockup. Simply upload an image — or drag and drop it — and
hover your cursor to see a magnifier loupe that previews the precise pixel color
beneath the crosshair. Click anywhere on the image to lock in a color, then copy its
HEX or RGB value with a single click.
Unlike server-based tools, the Image Color Picker runs 100% in your browser. Your images
are never uploaded to any server, so your files remain completely private. Whether you are a graphic
designer matching brand colors, a web developer pulling values from a comp, or a hobbyist building a
mood board, the Image Color Picker streamlines your workflow.

over the image to see a magnifier loupe with a live color preview. Click anywhere to select a color,
then click "Add to Palette" to save it. You can also click a saved swatch to copy its HEX code.
What image formats are supported?
The Image Color Picker supports all browser-compatible image formats including
PNG, JPG/JPEG, WebP, GIF, BMP, and SVG. Simply drag and drop or click "browse" to upload.
Is my image uploaded to a server?

Nothing is sent to any server — your files stay completely private.
Can I extract dominant colors automatically?

extracts the dominant colors, displayed in the "Extracted Colors" panel on the sidebar. You can
increase or decrease the number of extracted colors using the + and − controls.

You can copy colors in HEX format (e.g. #FF5733) and RGB format (e.g. RGB(255, 87,
51)). Click any color swatch or value readout to copy it to your clipboard instantly.
Do my saved palette colors persist?
Yes. Your palette is saved in your browser's local storage, so your colors will
still be there when you return to the page — no account required.
Can I use this on mobile devices?
Yes. The Image Color Picker is fully responsive and supports touch events, so you
can pick colors on tablets and smartphones as well as desktop browsers.
Upload any image, pick colors with pixel precision, and build a palette you can use anywhere.
