Description:
OpenPalette is an open source Android app for developers, themers, artists, and anyone else who needs to keep track of sets of colors for different projects. OpenPalette is an extremely simple app, create as many palettes (lists of colors) as you want, in each palette have as many or as few colors as you want. You can name colors to better keep them organized, easily copy values (HEX, RGB, or HSV) to clipboard by longpressing on a color, or tap the color to quickly copy the HEX value. Swipe colors away to delete them, and use the "handle" on the right side of the colors to reorganize them.
Colors can be added with a color picker wheel, or by manually entering HEX or RGB values.
This is my first Android app, so please report any bugs, I will fix all bugs to the best of my ability.
This app will likely only work on ICS and up, I might add support for earlier devices if I get enough requests.
Please leave feedback! I can't improve my app if I don't know what users think of it.
Downloads:
- Download from the Play Store.
- APKs available on XDA.

Nicely done, and very useful, thank you.
( It'd be great if it could pick up colours also using the camera. )
Reserved. Thx mate!
Would be great if you could add an option to auto render color sets from the current color, like complementary, ternary, tertiary. And maybe preload some of the common color sets like holo, solarized, etc
This sounds great. if possible could you add a save as css or some way to export the file to Gdrive or OneDrive.
Simply a brilliant app idea. Thank you for making this, I can finally retire my colour code bookmarks from chrome!
Useful app, but we need some kind of backup to file/cloud.
Also I got serious error when opening app - it doubles all saved palletes everytime it starts, so after few runs I've got dozens of my saved palletes.

nice one !
Thanks for the feedback everyone (for some reason XDA hasn't been notifying me of your posts, I need to check my settings -_-)
Anyways, I updated the app on the play store and it should be published within a few hours, I added an export feature to export palettes to SD card.

That's strange that you have this bug, I got this bug durring my development, but the final version that was uploaded should not have been doing this, but I have the feeling my latest update fixed it, so let me know! Also, rather than commenting about bugs please report the bugs, on the top of this page there's a link for "Bug Reports".
I just uploaded the new APK to this XDA page, click the Download link at the top of the page if you don't want to wait for the Play Store to update.
And this page also has official Bug Report, Feature Request, and Review sections, feel free to utilize them.

Observations:
Those of you who don't mind, please leave a small comment in the Android Market, along with a rating that you find appropriate (but please avoid bad reviews and low ratings, if you have a problem with the app, ask first). If you do not have the patience to leave a comment, use the phone's Market app to simply rate my app (I believe you can't just rate online, you are obliged to comment, but I'm not sure).
And if you don't mind sharing the Market application link in all your social networks (or only the ones you prefer), I'll be forever grateful.
Thanks in advance to everyone for their support.

Nice app. I like the clean UI.
Nice app, has a lot of potential!
Keep Going!
Good work, keep going
Tried a few similar apps like this one in the past... Definitely like this one the most. However, one feature that I wish was added is the ability to add our own, custom icons. Will that feature ever be included in the feature?

Yes, it's planned for a future version.
But I can't make any promises when it's going to be available...
This App is just fantastic.

I missed this post, sorry for a late reply...
Well, I appreciate your help but right now I'm not thinking about translations. It would probably help me and more people would probably use it...
But...
I have lots of features planned and lots of releases will come in the near future, it would be a pain to maintain translations done by other people. I would have to wait for them to finish their translation before being able to release a new version.
For now, I want to avoid that. When the app reaches a more mature state, I'll think about adding a couple more languages.
Again, thanks for your help anyway.
Is there any updates for this app?

I'm looking for someone fluent in Spanish to help me with the UI translations along with the Google Play page information.
Is anyone out there fluent in Spanish that uses my app and wants to help me out?
Im sorry, but as I'm not able to create external links on XDA yet, you have to enter the urls on your own. If I had been able to create a DevDB project, I would have done it.
HybridLauncher
HybridLauncher is a completely new type of Android-Launcher!
It's designed to be highly configurable and innovative.
Screenshots:
As I am currently not allowed to insert images, please have a look at hybridlauncher.bricklore.de
In the past, the underlying principles of Launchers have significantly differed from those of desktop computers. In particular, the homescreen was only able to show Widgets and Apps, usually arranged on a grid, and usually only able to display a finite (small) number of icons at once.
We adapt the concept of desktops to smartphones by providing a homescreen whose capacity is limited only by your phone's memory and without constraints on the type of items it can show.
We improve the concept of desktops by providing not only completely free positions, but also arbitrary tilts, sizes, and aspect ratios of the items' icons. The homescreen's size is dynamically adapted, such that an infinite number of icons can be displayed.
Technically, the homescreen is simply a folder. Actually, every folder can be used as homescreen (and there's an effectively unlimited number of those). Other folders can be directly accessed (the HybridLauncher also doubles as a file manager) and individually designed, just like the homescreen.
This is solved in way robust against changes of your ROM:
The layout of every folder is stored in small file (".layout") directly within the folder. Thus, if you change your ROM, by reinstalling the Hybrid Launcher, you instantly recover your homescreen (desktop).
HybridLauncher is available in two different versions: "Lite" and "Full". While you can enjoy full functionality with the Lite version, it shows a permanent notification in the statusbar.
Unique features of the HybridLauncher include:
Unlimited homescreens with individual backgrounds
Real files on the homescreen just as on the pc-desktop
Freely positionable items with optional grid or magnetic axes
Items individually adjustable
Item size and rotation continuously adjustable
Dynamic layout-size
Direct execution of shell-scripts
Links to other folders and files
"Open with" dialog as known from PC
Highly adjustable
Available for Android version 2.1 up to 5.0+
Data privacy is our highest priority
(HybridLauncher does not require internet access, no data will be submitted)
For maximum transparency, let us explain why HybridLauncher requires the following permissions:
VIBRATE: When you long-press Items, your phone will vibrate.
WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE: HybridLauncher is a filemanager. Thus, it should have permission to write on sd-cards. In particular, if you want to use a folder on the sd-card as homescreen, then a .layout file needs to be created on the sd-card.
WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE: This is generally the same as WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE, but on newer devices (5.0+) the access to the external sdcard is blocked by default and needs this extra permission.
READ_CONTACTS: Contacts can be placed on your homescreen (e.g. to open the SMS app quickly), so HybridLauncher has to access your contacts data. HybridLauncher will not submit any data (have a look at the source code).
SET_WALLPAPER: An app needs this permission to change the background image.
SET_WALLPAPER_HINTS: For background parallaxing the system has to be told the size of the wallpaper.
Information:
HybridLauncher is available in the Google PlayStore, or on my website (hybridlauncher.bricklore.de).
HybridLauncher Lite:
Play Store: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.fluxnetz.hybridlauncher_lite
Mirror: bricklore.de/android/hybridlauncher/release/hybridlauncher_lite.apk
HybridLauncher is OPEN SOURCE and licensed under GPL v3, you can view the source here: git.bricklore.de/hybridlauncher

Thanks for your feedback!
I have just reimplemented the wallpaper scaling, which should fix the problem.
Please have a look at the update and tell me if it worked for you!
Best regards
Since your launcher is open source could you please add it to F-Droid? Would make it easier for people not using play store or gapps like myself to keep it updated than periodically checking your website
As a happy tester, here are the direct links to your really nice app until you can add your own:

Looking good
It's nice to see a launcher that offers something slightly different. So many of them just seem clones of each other. The ability to place icons anywhere and not be constrained to a grid is something I've not personally seen before.

Although it seems quite a bit of work to do, I will hook myself into it right now.
--UPDATE--
It's not that easy for HybridLauncher, as the git repo is hosted on my own server which makes things more difficult (no https, minor problems). Additionally fdroid is not able to build from these souces without "understanding" the exact instructions (One has to preprocess the .java and .xml files in a special manner)
Unfortunately I wasn't able to figure out how I can add a prebuild binary .apk to fdroids repository. If you could guide me, I would supply those binaries until I have fixed my server issues.

Yeah I have noticed the same thing, and thats why I made HybridLauncher.
I wanted to try something completely different.
F-Droid
I'm not a developer so I'm afraid I can't be much use troubleshooting your issues adding your app to F-Droid. I'll ask my friends who are and see what they say. You could also ask on the F-Droid forums,they are always willing to help add a new app
Thank you, really good work.
I cant download from play store....maybe its banned in my country....please can you provide apk or link to apk dwonload?

Really great app Mate!
I did not buy the pro version for one simple reason:
One of the main feature of the pro version is to allow user to sort apps/shorcuts. However, setting order does not really make sense if when sliding make a loop. You never know where the app you are looking for, is positioned. The loop sliding makes more difficult the user to quickly find an app/shorcut.
Putting a toggle to loop on or off would make this app more magic

Wow, looks cool. I'll test it out.
So you get it on the play store then you do end want to help people or fix it when it doesn't work right. It won't let me remove contacts app off of it. How do I fix this.
