Frequently Asked Questions

How does the screenshot color palette generator work?

Upload an app icon or screenshot and the tool reads the image pixels directly in your browser, clusters them with a median-cut algorithm, and returns the six most representative colors sorted by dominance. It runs entirely client-side, so nothing is uploaded to a server, there is no signup, and no AI credits are spent.

What makes this different from a generic color picker?

Generic pickers hand you hex codes and stop there. This tool turns the extracted palette into four ready-to-use background gradient treatments and hands the colors straight into the AppScreenshotStudio builder, where the gradient engine applies them across your screenshot set as backgrounds and accents. The output is builder-ready, not just a swatch list.

Can I extract colors from any image?

Yes. Use your app icon for the tightest brand match, or a screenshot to pull colors from your actual UI. PNG, JPG, and WebP all work. Transparent pixels are ignored, so an icon on a transparent background returns only the real brand colors instead of the empty canvas around the mark.

What are the four gradient treatments for?

Each treatment is a two-stop CSS gradient built from your palette: a dark brand gradient for hero and CTA frames, a soft light tint for airy sets, a bold duotone, and a vivid high-energy option. Copy the CSS for any of them, or open the builder with the palette pre-loaded to apply them automatically across your screenshots.

Are the extracted colors accurate to my brand?

The tool samples real pixels, so the palette reflects what is actually in your image. For the cleanest result, upload a high-resolution icon rather than a compressed screenshot, since heavy JPG compression shifts colors. You can copy any individual hex, or send the whole palette to the builder and refine it there through chat.

Turn your brand colors into a full screenshot set

Once you have a palette, generate a matching App Store screenshot set with the AppScreenshotStudio builder. 10 free credits, no card.
