About the Colour picker

Handytool's color picker lets you drop any image into your browser and sample colors pixel-by-pixel with a magnified eyedropper. Each pick shows the HEX, RGB, and HSL code, ready to copy to clipboard, and you can build a small palette from repeated picks. Because the whole tool runs in your browser, screenshots, mood boards, and client photos stay entirely on your machine.

Colour picker features

  • 01

    Precise magnified eyedropper

    A zoomed-in loupe follows your cursor so you can pick the exact pixel you want, even in small or noisy images. Adjustable zoom up to 20× helps when grabbing logo colors or icon details.

  • 02

    HEX, RGB, and HSL in one click

    Every picked color is shown in three standard formats. Click any of them to copy — CSS-ready HEX for the web, RGB for print work, and HSL for designing color ramps.

    Build a palette privately

    Click around the image to collect up to a dozen swatches. The palette stays in your browser — nothing is uploaded, logged, or stored — so confidential mockups stay confidential.

Colour picker FAQ

How do I pick a color from an image?
Drop your image onto the page, move your cursor over the image, and click the pixel you want. The HEX, RGB, and HSL values appear immediately and can be copied with a single click.
Which image formats does the color picker support?
JPG, PNG, WebP, AVIF, GIF, BMP, and HEIC/HEIF are all supported. Handytool decodes HEIC photos from iPhones locally using WebAssembly, so you don't need to convert them first.
Is my image uploaded to a server?
No. The color picker works entirely in your browser — the image stays on your device from drop to palette. Nothing is sent to a server, logged, or stored.
What's the difference between HEX, RGB, and HSL?
HEX (like #B7FF3E) is the most common format on the web. RGB expresses the same color as red, green, blue values (0–255). HSL uses hue, saturation, and lightness — useful when you want to create lighter or darker versions of the same color.
Can I pick multiple colors at once?
Yes. Each click adds the sampled color to a mini palette at the bottom of the page. Click any swatch to copy its HEX, or the × button to remove it.
Is the color picker free?
Yes. Every Handytool is free to use with no sign-up, usage limits, or watermarking.
