Novel modern easily feasible methods for direct evaluation of a new, simple preconcentration analytical procedure have been developed. Two types of smartphone image analysis applications (ON Color Measure and Color Lab) were evaluated to obtain RGB and HSV color spaces data for the quantification of Magnetic textile solid phase extraction of colored compounds (e.g. water-soluble organic dyes). Both direct measurement of color spaces values via the smartphone camera and image analysis of the photograph can be used successfully. The obtained data were similar to those obtained by previously examined professional ImageJ software. The saturation (S) values of the HSV color space are directly proportional to the concentrations of the analyzed dye.
