Eyedropper Color Picker

Scan to open this page

Pick the exact color of a single pixel from an uploaded image — a live magnified loupe follows your cursor so you can click precisely, and every sample is the exact pixel, never an average with its neighbors.

How it works

  1. Upload an image
  2. Move your cursor over it — a magnified loupe with a crosshair follows in real time
  3. Click to lock in the exact pixel's HEX, RGB, and HSL

Frequently asked questions

Why did my eyedropper give a slightly different color than expected?

Many eyedropper tools sample an averaged area around your click point rather than the exact pixel — a documented complaint with tools like Photoshop's eyedropper when "sample size" isn't set to a single point. This tool always samples exactly one pixel, never an average.

Why is there a magnifying loupe?

Clicking precisely on a single pixel is hard at normal zoom. The loupe magnifies the area under your cursor in real time so you can land exactly where you intend.

Is my image uploaded anywhere?

No — sampling happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas API.

A wide sample-size setting blends in neighboring pixels, a documented complaint across image editors. This picker always samples exactly one pixel, with a magnified loupe so you can aim precisely.
