Description
Are you disappointed with the color reproduction of your monitor?
Do you wish to color calibrate it but can't justify shelling out hundreds on a colorimeter?
Then if you already own an Android camera phone then Display Calibration is the app for you!
A camera is a device that can capture colors, and so can be used to measure and calibrate the colors of your display.
All you need is an Android camera phone (e.g. Galaxy S6/S7, Nexus 6, LG G4) running Lollipop or later that supports Android's manual white balance and exposure Camera2 APIs.
Color measurement data is transmitted from the camera phone via Bluetooth. Display Calibration analyzes the measurements and produce the desired color calibration data for your monitor, embedded in an International Color Consortium (ICC) compatible profile.
The ICC profile can then be installed on your PC to complete the calibration process (this step is performed manually as Windows currently does not allow calibration profiles to be directly installed from a Store app).
Requirements ---------------
- Bluetooth
- An external Android device with a back-facing camera and supporting Android's manual white balance and exposure Camera2 APIs, and running a free "Camera Colorimeter" app by Auralisoft.
Please note: iOS/iPhone and Windows Phone devices are ***NOT*** supported.
- Access to a reference D65 white point would be useful but if one isn't available, natural sunlight may be a good enough substitute.
***NOTE*** Calibration of monitors connected to USB display adapters (including USB port replicators/docking stations such as Dell D3100) is not supported.

The app works and a lot cheaper than other options by Jason
I read the reviews of this app beforehand. Read the requirements. If you're not prepared to do what needs to be done, save your $2. Otherwise, the app works. Keep in mind that the quality of your smartphone camera will play a factor in the quality of the profile generated. Take another reading if you don't like the initial one. The most difficult aspect I had was getting my phone paired to the computer and the app recognizing the connection but eventually it worked out. Not the fault of the app but rather my phone. This app made my $300 Dell display remarkably better. Prior to this calibration, the display was had a washed out blue tint feel. My first calibration was slightly tinted red but it still made a huge difference in the overall warmth of the display. I'll keep trying to see if I can get an even better calibration in different light. Oh, and don't forget to take your case of the phone. For $2 this is a no brainer, especially given how expensive other options are.

Check system requirements for mobile phone OS and hardw by Maurice
I did not read the system requirements, and erroneously purchased an incompatible product. Support helped me return and refund the purchased software.

It doesn't work!! by Josiah
I tried 7 different Android phone using this app for the calibration and they all failed! 4 of them were told the cell phone cameras were not compatible. The other 3 cell phones were having problem connecting the Bluetooth. Even after they connected, the process was stopped in the middle of the calibration and never got completed!! What a waste of money!!!
