Description

Ever wondered what the name for that color is? Or wanted a set of colors that could be described as 'dusty'?

Color Namer lets you name colors in the world around you using your camera. You can also explore the whole named colorspace with a color picker, search through color names, and find names for hex values.

The named colors in the app were taken from the results of the XKCD color survey: xkcd.com/color/rgb/. This huge survey asked real people to name swatches of colors. After some data processing by XKCD, the survey resulted in some pretty funny color names, like "ugly purple", "boring green", "vomit yellow" and "barney".

Comments on Color Namer for Android

★★★★★ Steven Carder · Jun 5, 2021

I am red green colorblind and this app helps me identify what color things are. Very useful.

★★★★★ Hyde · Sep 16, 2025

I've used it for 2,3 years now? Pretty good. Does exactly what it advertises, and I like the little colors library, scrolling through it and reading their names. And the palette too, stumbling on a random color and learning its name. It's simple and efficient.

★★★★☆ Carlo Piana · May 16, 2018

Good app with interesting approach. Results heavily depend on the scenery, as phone cameras adapt to it (white balance auto). It would be useful to have at least a "lock white balance" feature, on current ambient light, pointing to a white or gray surface.

POOR INFORMATION, WERE IS THE ATHER HUNDREDS OF COLOR 😎

★★☆☆☆ Emma S · Jul 28, 2020

It's good but the camera is really blurry, so it doesn't actually give you the real color

★☆☆☆☆ ᎳhᎬᏞᎪᏁ ZᎽᎬx · Nov 2, 2021
