ColorCondenser
Extract. Condense. Create.
$0.99 · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Your design tool found 63,000 colors.
You only needed 16.
ColorCondenser fixes that.
Pull in any image, file, or scene and reduce it to exactly the palette you want - from 8 colors, 16, 32, however many you need. Fast, on one screen, no menus to dig through.
But it doesn’t stop at extraction.
ColorCondenser lets you recolor your image using the palette itself.
