One of the biggest design challenges most of us have is choosing a paint color.

Its easy to understand why.

There are seemingly infinite options out there.

Do you go for a bold dark color like navy?

What about a bright hue like lime green?

Should you play it safe with a neutral like beige or off-white?

But does it really work?

We tried the app to find out.

The Sherwin-Williams Color Expert is easy to use.

The only thing to keep in mind is that the photos arent quite perfect yet.

So dont expect a deep fake of your living room with lavender walls.

This is a smart idea once youve narrowed your selections down to a few colors.

After all, while AI can be a helpful tool, theres nothing quite like a real human being.

Lastly, dont forget to adjust your phone prefs.

Sherwin-Williams advises turning off Night Shift, True Tone, and Color Filters.
