Color Picker from Image
Color Picker from Image handles one task — click any pixel to copy its color — without an account or a download. The image is decoded onto an HTML canvas in your browser and re-encoded there, so the picture is processed on your own device rather than uploaded. It is used most by designers doing a quick crop or format swap without opening Photoshop. Colour profiles are kept as the browser reads them — extreme wide-gamut originals may shift slightly. There is no account to create, no email to hand over and no cap on how often you use it.
Key features
- Transparency in PNG and WebP is preserved; converting to JPG flattens it onto a solid background.
- Reads JPG, PNG, WebP, GIF, BMP and AVIF where the browser supports them.
- Works on desktop, tablet and phone — no separate app to install.
- Built to do one job properly rather than twenty jobs badly.

Frequently asked questions
- Are my photos uploaded when I use Color Picker from Image? — No. Color Picker from Image works on a canvas inside your browser. The picture stays on your device and no copy is kept by us.
- Can I use Color Picker from Image on a phone? — Yes. Color Picker from Image works in mobile Safari and Chrome, including picking images straight from your camera roll.
- Will transparency survive? — Yes for PNG and WebP output. Saving as JPG has no transparency channel, so transparent areas become solid.
