DesignMine
DesignMine is similar to Digs and Houzz. The workflow is slightly different though and gives you design boards that can be laid out many ways. You can then add ideas to each. For example, create a board for kitchen remodel ideas and then pin remodels you like to it. It’s a great way to visualize what types of colors and elements blend well together. And like Houzz you can also find professionals in your area to help with harder or more complicated home projects.

ColorSmart by BEHR
ColorSmart is an excellent app for matching tones before you paint, whether you’re going with BEHR paint or not.
