@EricGrantWI @Doug30004314vgrx @Oscar38682812ijz6 @zachriddleart I've merged your posts regarding the eyedropper problem here so they do not get lost. 

 

I am not sure if this is a widespread problem; I have tried the eyedropper, duplicating items from the right-click menu and re-ordering in the layer stack in Adobe Express Chrome on desktop, the Windows app on desktop and my Android phone and I had no problems. 

 

I don't have iOS so if someone can test that would be great!

 

Can anyone provide a little more information about what they were doing when the problem occurred?

 

If anyone else is experiencing the same issues, please reply below and upvote this thread.

The eye dropper tool no longer selects a color when trying to change a background color.

Our developers are aware of the issue and working on a fix which should be available soon. The issue only occurs on mobile and not web. Thank you for your patience while we get this sorted.

in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.

When using the eye dropper to capture a color within in image, it always returns the color "red".
