Quick answers
What is TrueHue?
TrueHue is a color analysis app for iPhone and Android that finds your personal color season from a selfie and gives you a palette of colors, a best neutral and a best metal.
What is a color season?
A color season is one of 12 styling categories (such as Soft Autumn or Cool Winter) based on undertone, value and chroma. Read the full explanation.
How does it work?
It finds one face on your device, samples skin, hair and eye colors, and applies a rule-based classifier. The same colors always give the same season.
Is it private?
Yes. Photos are processed on your device and never uploaded. There are no accounts and no ads. Read the privacy policy.
How the TrueHue app works
Take a selfie or pick a photo
Use the front camera or choose an existing photo. Natural daylight and no filters give the best result.
Your device finds one face
Apple's Vision framework on iPhone, and Google ML Kit Face Detection on Android, locate your face. If the image is too dark, blurry or has no clear face, TrueHue asks you to try again instead of guessing.
Colors are sampled
TrueHue reads skin, hair and eye colors from your photo and averages them in a way that ignores stray highlights and shadows.
A classifier picks your season
It scores undertone (cool to warm), value (deep to light) and chroma (muted to bright), then maps the result to one of 12 seasons and shows you why.
What you get

Named swatches for your season, plus your best neutral and best jewelry metal.

Frequently asked questions
What is the TrueHue app?
TrueHue is a color analysis app for iPhone and Android. It looks at the skin, hair and eye colors in a selfie or a photo from your library, matches them to one of 12 color seasons, and shows you a palette of colors that tend to suit you.
What is a color season?
A color season is a label from the 12-season styling system. It groups people by undertone (warm or cool), value (light or deep) and chroma (muted or bright), and each season comes with a palette of flattering colors, neutrals and a best jewelry metal.
How does TrueHue find my season?
TrueHue detects one face on your device, samples skin, hair and eye colors, and runs a rule-based classifier that scores undertone, value and chroma. Skin counts the most, hair next and eyes the least. The same colors always give the same season, and the result shows the reasons.
Is my selfie uploaded anywhere?
No. Analysis happens on your device. TrueHue states that photos are never uploaded and that it does not send them to an AI service. Only the color results are saved on your device. See the privacy policy for details, including the diagnostics Google ML Kit and Google Play Billing can send on Android.
How much does TrueHue cost?
The app downloads at no charge and your first complete color analysis is included. TrueHue Pro is a single one-time purchase of $24.99 USD (shown in your local currency in the store). There is no subscription and no recurring charge.
What does TrueHue Pro add?

Why did TrueHue refuse my photo?
TrueHue needs one clear, well-lit face with visible eyes. If the image is too dark, blurry, too small, obstructed or contains more than one face, it asks you to try again instead of guessing.
Are the results professional advice?
No. TrueHue results are style guidance for inspiration and entertainment. They are not medical, psychological or other professional advice.
