Pixolor

Your Screen Becomes a Color Palette

Imagine you’re scrolling through a friend’s Instagram photo, admiring a perfect shade of sunset orange, or you’re designing a UI mockup and need to match the exact blue from a Twitter thread. You could guess, pick a random hex code, or spend hours tweaking sliders. But there’s a smarter way. Pixolor turns your Android screen into a live, pixel-level color picker. No more squinting at screenshots or relying on eye estimates — you get the precise RGB code of any pixel, anywhere on your display, in real time.

How It Works: The Magic Circle

The core of Pixolor is a floating, draggable circle that hovers over any app you’re using. Just tap to activate it, then drag the circle over the exact pixel whose color you need. Within a split second, the app displays the color’s RGB value right inside the circle, along with the DIP (Density Independent Pixel) coordinates of that point. This means you can capture colors from any app — Twitter, WhatsApp, Chrome, your photo gallery, or even a video stream. No screenshots, no exports, no hassle.

Beyond simple color capture, Pixolor offers a Material Design color matching feature. If you’re a UI designer, you’ll appreciate how it instantly shows which Material Design color is closest to the pixel you’ve selected. This saves you from manually cross-referencing color palettes. Plus, you can zoom in on any area of the screen, making pixel-level selection easier when working with tiny UI elements or intricate gradients. The app also supports Turbo mode (available in the premium version) — this removes all ads and gives you faster, more responsive color detection, especially useful when you’re in a design sprint.

Why You’ll Love It

Pixolor is built for graphic designers, UI/UX developers, digital artists, and anyone who needs to match colors accurately. Instead of opening a separate app or taking a screenshot, you work directly on your live screen. The floating circle stays on top of all apps, so you can switch between your design tool and your reference image without losing your selection. It’s lightweight, doesn’t drain battery, and works on any Android device running version 5.0 or higher.
