I had to edit the brightness of the picture using iphone8

For capturing a color of my siding I took a picture of a large area that was in the shade with bright sun light reflecting off adjacent surfaces. When I used the color capture feature, all paints came out too dark when held up to the vinyl siding. So, I increased the brightness of the photo using Photos until I could hold up my iPhone to the siding using color capture and the brightness was the same. I found 2 good matches. Now, I will get some samples and find out if the matches are real.
Note that I turned up the brightness on my IPhone to max before I started this exercise.

Good idea- But app doesn’t work well

The idea is great, but the functionality of app is worthless. Here’s why:

1. I downloaded and used app for 15 minutes during which the app crashed 3 times. Had to reopen and start over again continuously.

2. Taking photos and allowing app to access certain photos worked fine. When looking over color swatches, the names of colors weren’t available to see (you’re going on small color swatch alone). Once you click on a color and it takes you to your chosen photo, there isn’t anyway to “undo” or “page back” if you don’t want that color.
E. G.- I accidentally tapped on one color swatch a few times because no names are given (until color is selected) and I wasn’t sure “which black color” in that row that I had already looked at. I didn’t realize I had selected the same color until I clicked on it and then I could see the color name. I had to exit out of the picture completely and restart process just to choose another color.

3. “Painting” the color onto photo. The tech is ok. It does leave a white outer line around “painted area”, so that can be distracting. I also had an actual paint swatch on the wall, so it had a white line around that swatch too.

4. Overall- the inability to go back to color sample options from photo (having to restart process over again & again) and the continually crashing makes this app not useful.

Could Use Modifications

I’m finding that it’s almost impossible for an app that will allow you to virtually paint a room. I want to paint an “attic” cape cod room a dark green but not sure if I want to paint the whole room or just some of the walls. I was hoping an app would somewhat let me visualize my options. This app isn’t great as in, it can’t identify the walls. It generates very blotchy and you would need to put the paint density all the way up to completely fill the walls. Which then over fills lots of areas you don’t want paint including the floor, annoying, but not a big deal. I figured I’d just use the eraser to clean it up and get the general idea of what I was going for. This is where I just gave up..... the eraser is in the shape of a circle and doesn’t operate like most erasers in programs. While held down to erase it creates “circle stamps” instead of a straight line. You won’t be able to erase a straight edge....it’ll look scalloped.

Can you take paint samples from Home Depot?

Paint Sample Projects The paint department at Home Depot is a gold mine when it comes to free items and services. And one of the most *ahem* colorful of these freebies is the extensive color sample selection. All of those beautiful sample swatches are free to take home.

Does Home Depot give out free samples?

If you're trying to plan how a pattern will look in your home, take advantage of Home Depot free samples. They give away floor and carpet samples for free, which is a great way to do some really cool projects, like when I needed flooring for my kids' playhouse.

Can you get a sample can of paint?

Paint samples are available from both paint stores, such as Sherwin-Williams, and from large home centers and hardware stores, such as Home Depot, Lowe's, and Ace Hardware. Because paint samples are temporary coats of paint, they must later be top-coated. Even during use as a sample, they tend to look streaky.

Are Behr paint samples free?

You can find Behr and Glidden paint samples from Home Depot in-store or online in 8-ounce sizes. Free Behr and Glidden liquid paint samples are not available, but small color swatches as loose cards are free.
