Description
I’ve been using the Sherwin-Williams Color Expert™ app for a couple months now. It’s basically a tool that lets you see how different paint colors would look in your actual space. Pretty handy if you’re planning a home makeover or just want to play around with color ideas.
Here’s what you do: you can take a photo of a room and then use the color visualizer to test out Sherwin-Williams shades. There’s also a recommendation tool if you’re feeling overwhelmed by all the color options. And the app has a ton of curated color palettes – that’s been really useful for getting inspiration.
Look, if you’re into home decor and DIY projects, you’ll probably like this app. It’s not perfect – the photo editing tools can be a little finicky – but overall it does a great job of helping you pick the right colors. Worth checking out if you need a little color confidence for your next painting project.
Editor Opinion
So here's my honest take on Sherwin-Williams Color Expert™. I've tested a bunch of home design apps and this one's pretty solid. The color visualizer is the standout feature - it's super easy to use and gives you a really accurate idea of how a color will look. And i also like the curated palettes, they take a lot of the guesswork out. On the downside, the photo editing is a bit clunky and the recommendation tool can feel limited. But overall, it's a useful tool if you're planning to repaint and want to be sure you're choosing the right shades.

Terrible. I wanted palettes from a tablecloth, a painting, and my garden. It only accepted the first two images then it only picked dull muted colors, in spite of the...
This is a toy, not a serious app. it's embarrassingly bad at what it does, how it is organized, and the speed at which it delivers.
