Ron, no but I've heard of it and didn't know what it related to. Is it free? It isn't that I mind spending a few pence on one or two to try out, but I don't want to download lots of stuff if it really is garbage or not suitable.

Jackie, Have you tried the app called I think "Omobey" take a look.

Following some info I received a day or two ago, I tried two colour identifiers from the App Store which someone on another list thought were very good value for nothing. They were ColourFinder, and Color ID. In actual fact, while they work in real time with the phone's camera, they were crap. It was absolutely hysterical to just point the phone at my lilac jumper, blue jeans, or Martin's silver grey sweat-shirt or black trousers, and have an American voice go through all sorts of permutations of what it thought it was recognising. At one point, it told Martin something he was wearing was a martini colour, and he cracked me up by saying it was trying to guess his name rather than the colour of his clothes. Great for a complete laugh, but certainly no way worth cluttering up your device, so I removed them, and am glad they were freebees. If you get a bit of free time, or want a laugh, some of those apps really do take the biscuit, and it proves there is junk out there as well as some really useful stuff. The only thing I would say about these two apps was that it was clever how the camera of your phone just took off when you opened either app, and tried recognising your colours live as you moved it about. I wish there was a really good one that could do that. But these two? Definitely no no no!! (smile).
