ColorU: Colors with Stories
Palette, Picker & Daily Color
Free · In-App Purchases
Every color has a name and a story. Curated libraries from Chinese & Japanese traditions, Morandi, Monet & more. Pairings are real named colors. Meet a new color daily.
Every color has a name and a story.
Not a cold #C41E3A, but "Rouge" — extracted from safflower, worn as lip color since the Han dynasty.
ColorU brings you 57 curated libraries and 580+ colors with real heritage: Chinese and Japanese traditional colors, imperial dynasties, ukiyo-e, Morandi, and the palettes of Van Gogh and Monet — each with a name, a meaning, and an origin.
COLOR OF THE DAY
Meet a new color with a story every day. It syncs to a home-screen widget, and you can browse past days.
PAIRINGS THAT TELL A STORY
Recommendations are real, named library colors — not bare hex. Generate a full scheme, lock the colors you love, and reshuffle the rest.
CAPTURE FROM LIFE
Extract colors from any photo or your camera into a palette.
TOOLS YOU CAN READ
WCAG contrast checks and live color-blindness simulation help you build palettes that look good and work for everyone.
