Frequently Asked Questions

How do I pick a color from an image?

Upload your image, then click anywhere on it. The tool instantly shows HEX, RGB, and HSL values for that exact pixel.

What color formats does the picker show?

HEX (e.g. #FF5733), RGB (e.g. rgb(255, 87, 51)), and HSL (e.g. hsl(11°, 100%, 60%)). Each has a one-click Copy button.

What is HEX color code?

A six-character hex string like #FF5733 where the first two characters are red, middle two are green, and last two are blue — commonly used in CSS and design tools.

What is the difference between RGB and HSL?

RGB specifies red, green, blue components (0–255 each). HSL specifies Hue (0–360°), Saturation (0–100%), Lightness (0–100%). HSL is more intuitive for humans making color adjustments.

Does this store my image on a server?

No. The image is drawn on a local browser canvas and never uploaded. All processing stays on your device.

What is the color history feature?

Every picked color is saved as a swatch — up to 10 at a time. Click any swatch to restore that color's values. History resets when you upload a new image.

What image formats are supported?

PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF, BMP, SVG — any image your browser can display.

Can I use this on mobile?

Yes. The tool works on Android and iOS. Tap the image to pick colors. The display adapts to small screens.
