“See how new colors would look on your walls before you paint!

Finding the right color for a room can be a challenge, but Paint Tester shows you the results without all the pain of painting and repainting! Know what you're getting in to before the first drop of paint touches the walls.

Paint Tester's variety of tools and smart paint bucket make it easy to change the wall color in a picture in a matter of seconds!

Start by taking a picture of the room you'd like to paint, then use the paint bucket to apply colors to the walls. In a well lit photo, the smart paint bucket will color the wall without bleeding on to neighboring walls or the ceiling. This gives you the control to get a clean picture of how the color would look, and you can even use multiple colors at the same time to try an accent wall!

If you didn't like how the first color looks, use the color picker to choose another, and just tap with the paint bucket to replace it!”
