HexColor
HexColor is a colour picker and conversion utility for macOS, designed to help developers and designers quickly identify, sample and convert colour values between hexadecimal, RGB, HSL and other common formats. The app typically sits in the menu bar or as a utility window, allowing users to click or drag across the screen to sample colours from any window or image, then instantly convert the picked colour into various code-friendly formats for use in web development, app design and graphic work.

1 suggestionWe could not find recent information about HexColor's current status or whether a native Apple Silicon build exists. The app is listed under a Russian developer (DeepIT) but the bundle ID alone does not reveal whether active development is ongoing. If you rely on this app, we recommend contacting the developer directly through their website or bundle ID registry to ask whether a native Apple Silicon build is planned or already available. This is important because Apple is removing Rosetta 2 support in macOS 28 (September 2028), after which any Intel-only app will stop launching entirely. In the meantime, the app will continue to work under Rosetta 2 on current macOS versions. If HexColor is abandoned or lacks a native build, several actively maintained native alternatives exist: Soulver (primarily a calculator but handles colour conversions), or web-based colour tools like CSS Color Picker or Colordot, though a dedicated native Mac app like Pastel or Digital Color Meter may be more convenient for frequent colour sampling during development work.
