Need the exact hex of a color on screen? macshot's eyedropper samples any pixel from a capture and copies the value — ready to paste into Figma, your CSS, or anywhere else.
Matching a color by eye never quite works. macshot's color sampler reads the real pixel value so you get the precise hex of a button, a brand color, or a gradient stop straight off the screen.
Because it samples from the captured image, the eyedropper works on websites, apps, photos, PDFs — anything on screen. Pair it with the magnifier to land on the exact pixel you mean.
