SO close to perfect
I find this app quite useful. The ability to see colors both similar and complementary to the selected color is great, and the full set of info on each color is appreciated. I am somewhat irritated by the order in which the Rosco colors appear (R111 appears after R11, R3405 appears after R34, none of the 300 series appears after their associated primary colors). Were it not for that ordering issue, I would have given a full 5 stars. I have 2 suggestions, both of which I would gladly pay considerably more for. First, add the ability to see a comparison of each color with a 3200 source and a 5600 source. Second, add the Vari*Lite colors to the selection.

Brilliant app
Fantastic reference for anyone in the industry. The Complimenting colours feature is excelent too.
Great app
The iSwatch is a great resource for anyone working with colour filters and will prove useful in many situations. It's much easier and faster to look up gels on the iSwatch than it is to thumb through a swatch book. It also looks pretty cool and you can't underestimate that.

Fantastic tool!
Swatch Books are free
Why would I buy an iphone app that doesn't have all of the gels out there when I can go to the nearest shp and get all the swatch books for free and this is only an approximation of what the gel woudl ok like againt white paper, not in life.

Ok, I thought this app was awsome. It has plenty of gels and there are more to come I hear. I would like to see more apps like this.
For example, one where you calculate the throw distance of a light and the beam diameter. I think that would be hot! Please consider this, it would be AWSOME if you guys could come out with lighting apps for the theater that had to do with more than just gels. But I liked this one.

Gel Swatch Library
This is superb, I've used it twice in the last week and saves carrying swatch books around all the time.
Thanks chaps.

Very useful!
I think this is a very useful application, and I've already used it a few times. The ability to look at similar and contrasting colors at a click are just great. To all the people complaining that it doesn't have historical asian gel or multiple methods of color picking, realize that this is the first appearance of this applciation. I'm sure future upates will include even more useful methods of selection.

Not worth $10
While this app is useful, I was dissapointed by the limited selection of gel companies (no Apollo). I was also disappointed by the lack of convienent browsing features such as a color wheel or grid.
This is fantastic!
This app saves loads of time if you work in theatre
