A free photo scavenger hunt app — no accounts, just a code
ColorCollect turns any group into a photo scavenger hunt in under a minute: share a 6-letter code, hunt the same color, watch everyone's shots land on a live shared grid, and vote the best ones into a montage.
Why colors beat item lists
Most photo scavenger hunt apps hand you a checklist — find a fountain, find a statue — that someone has to write and that only fits one place. ColorCollect's prompt is a color, and a color works everywhere: "find turquoise" is a different game in a city center, a supermarket, or a forest, and no two players ever bring back the same photo. That's what makes the voting round the best part.

Frequently asked questions
Is ColorCollect really free?
Yes — free with no ads. Every grid size, frame style, and the whole group mode are included; there's nothing to unlock.
Do players need to create accounts?
No. The host creates a room and gets a 6-letter code; everyone else joins with the code or an invite link and just picks a display name.
How is a color hunt different from a photo scavenger hunt with an item list?
Item lists run out and need writing in advance. A color prompt is infinite — "find coral" works in any city, any season, for any age — and every player's answer is different, which makes the voting round genuinely fun.
Does it work for team building?
Yes — a room code, a color, and 30 minutes make an easy icebreaker. Everyone's photos land on one shared grid, the group votes, and the result is a montage of the team's finds.
