Ignores main colors

I tested it on a photo with a large pink flower in the foreground and light greens and grays in the background. The 5-color palette generated had black, light green, and 3 identical medium grays. Worthless. I think it used to work the last time I tried it. I was thinking of upgrading, but won’t now.

Palettes Pro

Upgraded through the app so can’t leave a review under Palettes Pro. This IS an amazing color organizer. Everything you could want plus more. Have tried many other similar apps but have now deleted them! Palettes Pro is going to be an invaluable tool for my surface pattern projects. Thank you! I so hope the developer continues to support this wonderful app😃
