Perfect For My Needs
The Nix Mini is perfect for getting swatches of colors that I might need in projects. It also makes short work of getting the hex codes I need when I’m setting up design work.
No ability to save colors
A solid app for translating what’s in front of you, but there is no way to scan a color and then save it for reference. For me, that’s a big deal.
Severely lacking
No ability to organize scans, you can’t label them, group them or anything. You just end up with a massive list of scans. Completely non-intuitive design to delete single scans. Every other iOS app uses “swipe” left/right to act on items in a list, but not this. You press and hold a color in your scan list to delete it! How do you expect anyone to use this at scale of beyond one small project at a time? It is apparent that this app developers are not mobile phone users, the UX is broken and features are so limited. Tempted to return this as I am having a hard time seeing how to even track color scans to projects or rooms within the same project when no labeling exists.
Application can not connect to sensor
Dear Nix, The app can not connect to the sensor, when Nix Paint connects without issues.
Still no split view
Unbelievable. New release and STILL no support for split view. Their developers must not know how to implement it, I guess. Hey guys, feel free to reach out. I’ll be happy to show you how easy it is.
NIX Paints can’t reference NIX Digital palette colors
I initially scanned (via NIX Mini hardware) the color of my roof (via NIX Digital application) to use that color as a component of a new house exterior pallet. After scanning the roof, I put my ladder away. The roof color coordinated pallets were nicely generated by the NIX Digital application. The next step was to select paints to match the NIX Digital pallet colors but there was no way for the companion application, NIX Paints, to reference the palette colors in NIX Digital. The only solutions were to get out the ladder and rescan the roof color in NIX Paints or ignore NIX paints and use a different vendor’s Web application called “Easy RGB”. Easy RGB allowed me to enter the NIX Digital palettes’ RGB values to find commercial paints that were close.
