I'm assuming I did well since I finished it in under 30 seconds. Then again, I trained myself to notice even a difference of 1 in a channel for a RGB pixel.

#42Earlier quoted context omitted.
I breezed through this test, with the exception of maybe one or two squares. I’m red/green colorblind but constantly doubt if I am. Every few years I ask an eye doctor if I’m colorblind. The last time I did this they only went through a few pages of the Ishihara test before closing it and saying, “Yep, you’re colorblind.” I’m also able to read reverse Ishihara tests which my non-colorblind friends can’t. I don’t thin…
> Red and green look quite different to me! However, I cannot for the life of me spot my dog’s red frisbee in green grass, or pick out a red character among a bunch of green ones without looking at each character. This is basically a textbook description of standard red green colorblindness. Whenever you find yourself doubting whether you actually are red/green colorblind, just go strawberry picking with friends.
Yep. Whenever I say I am colourblind, people show me a tree and ask "what color is it?". And I have to explain that I know what red/green is.
An example I give is red flowers in green grass: I may not see the flowers at all unless I go very close.
Another one is while climbing indoors: say there is a purple route next to a blue one. Some handles I will clearly classify as blue, some clearly as purple, and some in the middle I won't be able to classify. But non-colourblind people will clearly be able to classify them all.

#43I'd like a progressive or training mode.
I'd also like the hex codes and name of the color to pop up somewhere, maybe part of the training mode?
I would love to use this app to practice my color name recognition, not just seeing if I can differentiate them.

#44Had no trouble with these except for the three or so panels of bright green which were almost impossible to distinguish. I got the confetti in the end but wasn't paying attention to beeps so not sure if I got any of the bright greens right.
