The Power of the White Reference
What sets Color Meter apart from other apps is its innovative use of a white paper reference. By compensating (automatic calibration) for the color and intensity of the ambient light, Color Meter ensures that the color measurements are more precise and reliable. It is like having a professional meter in your pocket.

Perfect for artists, designers, architects, decorators, researchers, print technicians, photographers and anyone interested in colors.

Use the app as for color calibration, experiments, color identification, palette creation, color analysis and more - the possibilities are endless.
