Google to Add Native Color Picker Tool in Android 17 Update
Google appears ready to address a long-standing gap in Android’s creative toolkit. According to recent reports, Android 17 will introduce a native color picker tool that can capture precise hexadecimal color codes from anywhere on screen.
Closing the Creative Tool Gap
Android may finally be getting a feature that creative professionals have wanted for years. Reports indicate Google is developing a native color selection tool, currently dubbed ‘EyeDropper,’ that would debut with next year’s Android 17 release. This would bring Android in line with desktop operating systems and professional creative software that have long included such utilities.
