Color Blind Pal

Small app with many functions. But why tritanopy simulation uses yellow-blue spectrum instead of red-cyan?

the app has ruined my life. 20 minutes ago i could see color. now i’m blind. thanks…

Loved previous versions helped me a lot with tiny wires and items hard to see. Now with new iPhone the app doesn’t make use of macro camera so it’s VERY hard to use this app now. Would greatly appreciate an update that can use the close up camera too!!! Thank you

There is absolutely nothing complicated about this app, and that is a good thing. Most apps like it I’ve tried are filled with unnecessary fluff. For anyone who has any type of color blindness: get this app. It is a life savior for people like us.

I hate to throw around a phrase like “life changing” but I’m tempted. Color Blind Pal is a pal indeed, helping me make the least of my deuteranopia. But I really wish it would do just a couple more things. 1) Front facing camera (so I can use it to help with my makeup and outfits); 2) Remember my settings, because it’s super annoying to have to switch modes and adjust the hue range every single time I open it. I thank the developers for this great app, and hope they keep on developing it!

Thank you Vincent for creating this app. I just downloaded, went through the tutorial (perfect, straightforward). The whole app is impressive and well thought out. One thing i thought of to enhance the app and truly make it work for us… how about adding a customization function that utilizes the Ishihara test or something similar,and then let us customize the settings so that it’s close to perfect for that one user? Make sure you copyright it too and maybe OS companies will pay you to use it as part of the accessibility option.

Let’s start by admitting, there are not a lot of apps that cater toward helping those who are colorblind. This app is a great start and could evolve into something better. I’ve personally found it helpful on a multitude of situations! When you can’t tell green from brown it doesn’t matter the exact color shade. I’ve seen a lot of comments, “that lite pink, magenta, peach, lavender, etc. doesn’t accurately reflect.” Those don’t matter to me. I need to know if it’s green or brown, blue or purple, red or brown, orange or red, pink or grey, etc. No need for extra shades and descriptions - let’s just hit the primary colors. This app has helped me with that! Thank you!

Stupid app had me going out not matching at all…. I could’ve guessed better than what it said

My friend is colorblind and I downloaded this app to test it out before recommending it. It could not identify any light/baby pinks correctly and instead labeled them “faint orange” and “maroon”. I tried on several pink items and the only one it identified as “pink” was a very bright, hot pink. It even identified an eggshell white as “faint orange”. I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone who actually needs it to be accurate.
