Color Picker: Eyedropper & Palettes

Pick any on-screen color with the native eyedropper and get hex, RGB & HSL instantly. No page access. Palettes are premium.

Color picker, eyedropper tool & hex/RGB/HSL converter. Pick any on-screen color Color Picker grabs any color on your screen and hands it back as hex, RGB, and HSL. It is built 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. 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 and see it converted into every format instantly. Hex, rgb(), hsl(), and named colors like "rebeccapurple" all work. - 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 and converting for free, palette organizing on the premium upgrade (with an automatic small-window fallback for reliability), without ever needing to see what's on the page you're looking at.
