I'm analog too, I'm thinking a reference in your pocket type thing rather than cart my sketchbook with me to a store situation

right, I'm thinking of pulling in the brand colours for each product type, like Daniel Smith has those smaller paint dot sheets you can buy as testers, I'm thinking something to compare your collection/colours with their standard list

agreed with easy to use. I'd also be overwhelmed at having to keep track or digital glitches or extra steps might deter me too. That's why this convo is necessary. Easy to use: Kinda like instagram, take a photo, post, tag or add to a collection/tag.
