Leave a Review FilmBox by Photomyne
FilmBox app
I love this app. I just started using it today. Easy to figure everything out and I love the color fix to change from black and white. I’ve shared some very old photos that would be lost forever. I had thought about getting someone to make pictures from the negatives but found it very expensive.
I would recommend this to anyone who has a lot of old negatives that they would like to breathe new life into.
Upon using the app, my phone said I didn’t have room to use any of my apps. I deleted a lot of apps. Today I found the problem. FilmBox filled my photo app with many, many, many duplicate pictures. I hope they can fix this. I may have to delete their app if they don’t.Show lessHow now brown cow?

Thank you for the comment, we so appreciate it!Very poor quality
I have used your app with the light of a computer screen and the photos come out grainy, if at all. I have worked with natural light with no improvement. My negatives have been stored in a safe so are still in perfect condition. Unless you can advise and alternative way of using your app I will be discontinuing my registrationShow lessflash6278

The negative has be 2 inches (5 cm) away from the computer screen in order not to have the image pixelated. The camera needs to see the side holes. Please try again and let us know how it goes.Just what I need
I’ve just purchased this in full. Really looking forward to being able to convert the old negatives that have been hidden away for keepsake. Brilliant.KiwiNewZealand

Thank you for the 5 stars!Happy to see my mom again
My daughter heard of this app on TikTok and of course I had to download it cause I had some negatives that I’ve had since 2005. My mom passed away in June of 2018 and I had to see some old pics that we took with her while I was visiting that year. And all I want to say is THANK YOU SOOOO MUCH cause it brought back so many memories and it saved me a trip to the store to develop them. I would highly recommend this app to everyone.Show lessEranxadi1111
Very disappointed
I was so looking forward to scanning and saving all my 35mm negatives, but either I’m doing something wrong or the app operates in the reverse of what I was hoping to enjoy. I scanned Color negatives and during the process the photo scans as color for an instant but then goes straight to black and white! Why??Show lessscully1994

Please reach out to support@photomyne.comNot worth it
I got this app to scan some 120 B&W negatives that I have been shooting lately. The negative conversion was good but the auto cropping was HORRIBLE. I had to scan some of the pictures 6 times to get a halfway decent crop. The resolution of the scans were terrible. I used a light box and my loupe told me the focus was sharp but the scans were terrible. I tried to go back and rescan to improve the scans but it won’t let me since I’m not on the paid version. I am not commuting to a subscription unless the app does what it’s supposed to do, and this one does not. Even their trial automatically subscribed to subscription after 3 days. Nope!Show lessGeo_Tool_Man
A really good app for scanning negatives!
This by far is the best way to scan and know what is placed in your negatives! I found so many negatives for my mom and they all worked!Reine Habbal

Thank you!ONLY $5.99/month
Hi there! I came across this app and thought it was too good to be true. I wasted my time DL-ing the app and then wasted more time to watch their intro, and then come to see “try 3 days free then $5.99/month”, don’t waste your time DL-ing this app if you’re NOT gonna pay to use this feature. With $5.99 I can just go get my pictures develop at the store and the pictures quality are probably 1000% better. I was a little disappointed that I cannot try it free for the first time, to see if I really liked the quality of the picture. Imagine taking a picture on your computer monitor screen, the picture is distorted or blurry, or just bad quality. I would not recommend this app, and oh yeah I deleted the APP in a split of a second.Show lessMkhoviyeun

Of course you can try it for free. We also offer 3 days free trial.I’m blown away
I was very skeptical about the app considering the negative reviews, but when I tried it I was blown away. It recognizes the pictures easily and turns them into photos with no problem as long as you follow the directions!! Also you don’t have to get a subscription, they have a free option as well. If you are looking for the subscription it’s only 5.99$ a month which is a lot cheaper than renting a local dark room. The only complaint I have is the grainy look it adds to the photos. But maybe they will fix it in the future. I love the app!!!Show lessyordyyn
