One color. Six letters. Everyone hunts.
Spin up a room, share a 6-letter code, and turn any color into a live scavenger hunt with friends. Everyone shoots the same color, the best photos win, and you all get one shared montage. Free, no accounts to join.
How it works
- Create a room and pick the colorThe host chooses the target color and grid size, and can name the room. ColorCollect hands back a 6-letter join code.
- Share the code or invite linkFriends join with the 6-letter code or a tap-to-open invite link — no account signup, just a display name.
- Everyone hunts the real world, liveYou all chase the same color at once, and every shot lands on the shared grid in real time on everyone's phone.
- Vote for the best shot per cellIn Vote mode anyone can submit photos for any cell; when everyone's finished, a round opens and you all pick the winner for each cell.
- One montage, plus final standingsThe finished montage is built from everyone's winning shots — and a shareable podium card tallies who landed the most cells.
Two ways to play
Pick the vibe when you create the room — split the work, or let the group vote.
Assigned cells
Split the grid; each person shoots their own cells.
- The grid splits evenly between everyone — the host mops up any leftover cells.
- Claim the empty cells you want; you only ever shoot the cells you own.
- No two people share a cell, so there's zero overlap.
- The host builds the montage once everyone's marked ready.
Vote
Everyone submits shots, then the group votes on the best.
- Anyone can submit a photo for any cell, so a cell can gather several takes.
- When everyone's finished, a voting round opens for the whole group.
- The most-voted photo wins each cell; ties go to the earliest upload.
- The host finalizes voting to build the montage from the winners.

Put your hunt on the map
Every room comes with a shared live map you can pin your best photos to, so the group sees where each color was found. It's opt-in shot by shot — nothing lands on the map unless you choose to add it.

Frequently asked questions
Do my friends need an account to join a hunt?
No. Friends join with the 6-letter room code or a tap-to-open invite link and just pick a display name — no signup, no email.
How many people can play a group hunt?
A room comfortably fits a handful of friends — the grid splits between everyone in Assigned mode, and in Vote mode any number of players can submit photos for any cell.
Can we play from different cities?
Yes — everyone just needs the app and the room code. Each player hunts the color wherever they are, and every shot lands on the shared grid live, which makes it a great game for long-distance friends.
Is the group mode free?
Yes. ColorCollect is free with no ads — creating rooms, joining, voting, and sharing the final montage are all included.
