WhatColor – Color Identifier

WhatColor identifies the exact color of any surface — walls, furniture, fabric, floors — right from your camera. Most color identifier apps just read raw pixel data. The problem? A wall under warm bulbs looks completely different than the same wall in daylight. WhatColor corrects for ambient room lighting, so you get the true color, not a lighting artifact. How it works? Two circles appear on screen. Align the top circle with any white surface nearby — paper, ceiling, wall — and the bottom circle with your target surface. Tap Scan. The app uses the white reference to cancel out the room's color cast and returns what the color actually is under neutral light. What you get? True corrected color, not just raw camera data Median, average, and dominant color variants Works on any surface — walls, wood, fabric, tile, furniture No internet connection needed No photos saved or uploaded Perfect for DIY projects Matching paint colors before you buy Replicating a color you love in another room Identifying exact shades for touch-ups Settling the "what color is that wall?" question once and for all
