Color Picker — Eyedropper & Palettes

Pick colors with the native eyedropper and manage palettes — no access to any web page. Colors stay on your device.

Color Picker — Eyedropper & Palettes grabs any color on your screen and hands it back as hex, RGB, and HSL — for designers, frontend devs, and anyone who needs the exact color of something they're looking at, right now. NO PAGE ACCESS, BY DESIGN Most color pickers work by injecting a script into every page you visit so they can read pixels off it. This one doesn't. A single click in the popup launches the browser's own native eyedropper tool right there — it samples whatever is under your cursor directly, anywhere on screen, without ever asking to see the content of a page. (On the handful of setups where the browser closes the popup as the eyedropper opens, that pick simply doesn't go through — but the extension notices the pattern and automatically switches your next pick on that device to the same native picker running in a small window of its own, which isn't affected by the same issue.) There's nothing to inject and nothing to grant: the manifest requests a single permission (local storage for your history and palettes) and nothing else. This extension collects no data of any kind — no analytics, no tracking, no telemetry. The only network traffic it ever makes is a purchase-verification check with ExtensionPay if you choose to upgrade. FREE, AND GENUINELY USEFUL • One-click native eyedropper pick, from any open tab. • Hex, RGB(A), and HSL(A) shown together the moment you pick, each with its own copy button. Choose uppercase or lowercase hex. • History: your last 30 picks, saved locally — click any one to reload it, or clear the list. • Manual input: paste or type any CSS color — hex, rgb(), hsl(), or a named color like "rebeccapurple" — and see it converted into every format instantly. • Shade strip: a 9-step lighten-to-darken ramp for whatever color is loaded, every step clickable and copyable on its own. • Your hex case, default copy format, and theme are remembered between sessions. PREMIUM ($5 one-time) For building and shipping an actual color system: • Named palettes: organize picks into palettes you create, rename, reorder, and delete, saved locally. • Export a palette as CSS custom properties, SCSS variables, or JSON — paste straight into a codebase. • WCAG contrast checker: pick or enter a foreground and background color and get the exact contrast ratio plus AA/AAA pass-fail for normal and large text. No subscription, no account — pay once, keep the features. Single-click in-popup picking, converting, and organizing colors — with an automatic small-window fallback for reliability — without ever needing to see what's on the page you're looking at.
