← Back to the color picker

All changes and improvements to ColorPicker, newest first. Each entry shows the version, the deployment date and time, and whether it is a new feature or a fix.

v1.6 Latest version Feature 2026-10-12 07:35

Every sub-page now shows the suite favicon, and cookie use follows a GDPR consent banner: non-essential cookies are only set after you choose “Accept”, while “Decline” keeps everything session-only. The strictly-necessary consent cookie remembers your choice.

v1.5 Feature 2026-10-10 13:53

The feedback button now opens a single shared form on the tools index. You can pick the app from a dropdown, so all suggestions and bug reports arrive in one place.

v1.4 Fix 2026-10-10 10:16

The privacy tiers were clarified: green now explicitly covers tools that make stateless server calls (nothing is stored), and blue is reserved for tools that persistently store user data on the server - currently none do.

v1.3 Feature 2026-10-12 07:35

Unified the suite look: the app now shares the common design system with every other tool — the same colours, fonts and footer, plus a new top bar to switch between tools.

v1.2 Feature 2026-10-09

The footer now shows a privacy indicator for this tool: a green dot means it runs entirely in your browser, a yellow dot means it keeps data on your device, and a blue dot means it stores results on the server.
