Colorwise is an iOS color sampler. Colorwise can sample colors straight from the camera or from an image. The sampled color is displayed along with the color components converted into a variety of formats including RGB, HSB, CMYK, CMY, Lab, hLab and XYZ. Libraries of colors can also be used to assign colors appropriate names.Sampled colors are stored in a list of swatches that can be exported in a variety of formats including Adobe Swatch Exchange (ASE) format that can be used in popular design programs such as Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Color File (ACO) format as used by Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Color Book (ACB) format as used by Adobe Photoshop color libraries. Additional formats include a simple text format that can be edited from Colorwise and CSV (comma separated value) format which can be used in spreadsheet applications such as Numbers and Excel.Colorwise can also import the same file types it can export. This makes it possible to import color palettes from several sources, including Photoshop.Color libraries in compatible formats can be opened by Colorwise from other apps, including Mail, Safari and other apps that can send a file to compatible programs.Send emails containing your swatches in any combination of an HTML table and compatible file attachments.Use color libraries to match colors sampled by Colorwise.
