iPhone

Transform your iPhone into a lab-grade surface color analyzer. No ads, just pure color. See the world's true colors. I designed Pholor to transform your iPhone into a laboratory-grade surface analyzer. Unlike standard color pickers that just read a single pixel, Pholor uses AR Surface Detection to understand the 3D world, correcting for light and shadows to give you the objective color of any object. FOR DESIGNERS & PROS Stop trusting auto-exposure. Pholor's "Lab-Lock" Engine instantly freezes White Balance and ISO to prevent the color shifting that plagues standard camera apps. Get consistent, raw data straight from the sensor—perfect for matching paint, textiles, or print materials. • Raw Sensor Access: Bypasses standard image processing for maximum fidelity. • Smart Averaging: Automatically filters out digital grain and noise. • Workflow Ready: Tap to copy Hex codes instantly. FOR THE COLORBLIND Stop guessing if it is "green" or "brown." Pholor translates abstract color data into clear, descriptive language. Our 3-Tier Naming System gives you the context you need: • The Category: (e.g., "Blue") • The Tone: (e.g., "Grayish Blue") • The Name: (e.g., "Space Cadet") KEY FEATURES • AR Raycasting: Physically locates objects in 3D space for accurate sampling. • Persistent Markers: "Stamp" color readouts onto real-world objects to compare shades side-by-side. • Global Dictionary: Localized color names in 21 languages. • Accessible UI: High-contrast text modes designed for maximum readability. WHY FREE? I believe good, simple accessibility tools should be free and hassle-free. Muyao Wu https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
