How does the image color picker extract colors?

The tool uses the Canvas API to read pixel data from your uploaded image. It samples pixels across the image, groups similar colors together using quantization, and returns the most frequently occurring colors as the dominant palette.

What image formats are supported?

You can upload any image format supported by your browser, including PNG, JPEG, GIF, WebP, BMP, and SVG. Simply drag and drop or click to select your file.

Is my image uploaded to a server?

No. All processing happens entirely in your browser using the Canvas API. Your image never leaves your device and nothing is sent to any server.

How accurate are the extracted colors?

The tool uses color quantization to group similar colors, so extracted values are representative of the dominant color regions. For exact pixel-level precision, consider a dedicated design tool with an eyedropper feature.

Can I copy the color codes?

Yes! Click on any color swatch to copy its HEX code to your clipboard. You can also use the 'Copy all colors' button to copy every extracted color at once in HEX, RGB, and HSL formats.
