Leave a Review Cine Meter
Stopped working.
This was a great, useful app that I actually found accurate and comprehensive enough for serious work. Loved it and used it often. But now when I try to open it on my iPhone XR, it crashes immediately. No error message, no explanation. Just shuts down. Disappointed to say the least!Developer Response
A fresh download is working fine here on an XS Max running iOS 14.3. Did you try any of the troubleshooting steps at https://www.adamwilt.com/cinemeter/support.html, like resetting your phone, or deleting and reinstalling the app? Did you try contacting the developer for help? There is nothing in the code that should make it just stop working, so it's likely something went wrong with your installed copy — even if it was working before. Things DO fail of their own accord once in a while, and if resetting your phone doesn't fix it, reinstalling the app should.Deserve 5* but....
Why create a new app and not upgrade the one I’ve PAID!!!
Update: the developer returned a fair answer. Thanks. The new app should deserve 5*
Not this one.Developer Response
Because the new app required substantial time and money to create, and while you might want to get it for free, I couldn't afford to do that. I could have made the new features an in-app paid upgrade, but that adds complication and annoys users. Instead, I made a Cine Meter Upgrade Bundle, so that you can get Cine Meter II for $4 off if you want the new stuff. And if the new stuff is too expensive for you, Cine Meter continues to work as it always has, and there are no in-app sales pitches to annoy you while you use it.A must have for indie work
Why is this app essential? Because at some point in your progress as a cinematographer you reach the stage of giving your footage a filmic look through controlling lighting. It's all about key to fill and key to background lighting ratios. It's about knowing how to expose properly for skin. It requires looking at dynamic range.
This app helps in so very many ways. I don't turn on a camera until I've spent at least 15 min walking around the setup.
Top notch job in this app!Show less
