Home Apps Sports and Health Colorblind Assistant

Take a picture of a surface and get its color in words.

Are you colorblind and want to know what color an object is? Take a picture of the surface with your camera and get a readout of in words of the top five colors the camera sees. The app maps color data to color names in such a way as to approximate color perception by the average person.

What's New in the Latest Version 2.0

Last updated on Feb 20, 2016 In version 2.0:
The app now uses a camera intent rather than direct hardware access. This prevents crashes on a lot of devices (most notably tablets).

The app identifies monochromatic colors (black, grays, and white) more accurately. Since no colorblind person has trouble telling black from gray from white, all such colors are simply reported as "Monochrome".

After taking a picture, some basic instructions are available from the app menu.
