Why Color Temperature Matters in Photography
Understanding color temperatures is crucial for achieving accurate colors in photography. While Automatic White Balance (AWB) helps, manual settings often yield better results. Use this app to measure color temperatures and set your white balance accurately for stunning photos.

Accuracy
To ensure the best possible accuracy, this app uses a common white paper or a grey card to measure color temperature (CT, correlated color temperature, CCT). Just make sure the paper is lit by the light source you are measuring and avoid any color casts. While usually not necessary, calibration can further enhance accuracy.

Free for a Limited Time
Enjoy full functionality for a few weeks. After that, choose a one-time fee or subscription — still at a fraction of the cost of a dedicated device.

Was so helpful I just purchased it. I do echo the other reviews and suggestion to move the same button to more ergonomic location around square window. It would be nice to be able to grab the reading with one hand. But also with your left hand as the save button is on the right. Other than that this came in handy for my shoot. That I instantly bought it when we were done filming.

I was so thrilled to find this app. I could tell just by looking at the pictures shown on Google Play that this was genuine, and it is what I was searching for. So I purchased it right away. I am using it for adjusting the color temperature of artificial lighting for indoor plantings and terrariums.

I used this app for a different purpose than most and found it very helpful. I live in a small town where a utility recently replaced some streetlight LEDs. The city had specified that the LEDs be 3000 Kelvin but the utility mistakenly installed 4000 K LEDs. To my eyes, the mistakenly installed LEDs were clearly too bright, but I wanted some additional confirmation of my perception. This app allowed me to confirm my concerns and pass that info on to the city staff. Thanks for a great app!
