Datacolor’s SpyderGallery is a new free app for the Apple iPad. The app provides an easy-to-use calibration utility for Spyder3 owners to create a custom colour profile on their iPad. Using the Spyder3, the app will measure and profile colour on the iPad and then apply colour correction to images displayed through the SpyderGallery. Viewing images through the colour-managed viewer will allow for more accurate colours and provide users with a closer match to desktop monitors and other colour-managed displays. SpyderGallery for iPad is available as a free download from the App Store.
