EXPLORE COLOUR THEMES In NCS+, you have access to all of the standardized NCS colours, and can explore all of the NCS Colour products, including Trend collections, the NCS Index, NCS Exterior and NCS Inspire.
FIND YOUR COLOUR Search for colours in the new and innovative search panel, either through an NCS Notation (or parts of it) or filter for colours based on their hue and/or nuance.
MATCH A SURFACE Using the built-in support for the Colourpin II / SE / PRO colour readers, you can easily scan any surface and find the closest matching NCS colour with the click of a button. You can also see how much the scanned surface differs from the closest matching colours with the built-in rating function and its corresponding delta E 2000 value.
NAVIGATE THE NCS COLOUR SPACE The new and improved NCS Navigator brings unparallelled ease of navigating in the NCS System, through the NCS Circle selecting the prefered hue, and the NCS Triangle to select the correct nuance. The innovative beehive allows you to fine-tune your selection by modifying the selected colour in either chromaticness, blackness or whiteness, giving you exactly the colour you want.
COMBINE COLOURS Through the smartness of the NCS System, you can combine colours of your choice based on colour similarities such as nuance-, hue-, blackness-, chromaticness-, whiteness and NCS lightness similarity. Basing your combination colours on these properties are one of the most certain ways of creating colour combinations that harmonize.
COLOUR SAMPLE REFERENCES With unprecedented on-screen colour accuracy, you can now bring up any standard NCS colour on your mobile device. On each colour, you can also find out in which collections they are available, buy a physical sample in different sizes from the NCS Colour web shop or any NCS reseller as well as find translation values into other systems such as RGB, HEX, CMYK and Lab values.
SAVE, SHARE AND INSPIRE Save your favourite colours into mood boards, upload images or take photos of your project to provide addional context to the board. You can then share the boards with friends or colleagues to inspire and collaborate.
Recent changes: Bug fixes and stability improvements: • Fixed sign-in issues that could occur while your device was locked • The app now keeps its correct branding after a reinstall • Small visual fixes in the colour navigator

This app works with a wonderful, tiny color measurement device that easily fits in a pocket and allows you to take precise color measurements wherever you are. Using your cellphone. Samples you measure can then be stored and sorted on your personal page on the NCS+ website. This app has proven invaluable to me in my vintage aircraft research and restoration. I highly recommend this app.

Hello. Some color names have exactly the same CMYK values. Also, the index page and index position of each color are not correct. So I cannot trust this app.

Explain to me this-you buy a color scanner device that is not cheap. You scan a color and instead of telling you what the color is, you get similar suggestions, but have to BUY yet another subscription to check that one color you scanned. 20/10 SCAM !!!

No chance to pair Coloring II. I tried my phone and my tablet. Permissions are set correctly and Bluetooth is working. I had no problem using the pin with the old app, now it's completely broken.
