No Gold 120!?
No Kodak Gold 120 and no cross processing? (At least for Ektar). Gold is such an affordable stock for 120 it’s so sad not to have it 😭😭
Not worth paying for
Have to restart the app every time I change film type or it fails to find developer solution/ gives wildly incorrect info.
Useless
Difficult and confusing. Not user-friendly or intuitive at all. Just save the time and money and get the Massive Developer App, which actually works and is simple and straightforward.
Poorly designed timer
It doesn’t really give you any indication of where you are in the process. The icons are ok once you know what they are, but in general it could use a lot of design work.
Exactly the title and nothing more
This app is for exactly what the title says and nothing more... it’s only a timer for the developer part of film processing, it will find a time for you the most films and most developers but it is not a full development process timer it will not stop and change to the next process which is the stop bath. It’s pretty good but some of the icons used are not really explained, you kind of have to tested out to see which icon means what... for example there is one icon that supposed to be represent a push poll process how much do you want to push your development and pull it...it was a test to figure out that’s what the icon was for.

Needs help.
I’d seen Massive before but bought this one to try.
If you want to put in your film and developer and push start, that won’t be happening.
If you JUST want time for the developer, that can be done fairly quickly.
However, even after adding the other timers (stop, fix, etc) I could never figure out how to start them.
Additionally, I changed screens on my phone to look up the dev time to make sure it was right, and when I came back the timer was now —:— even though it should have had about 4 min left.
I think this one could be good with more work.

Your best friend
Tired of trying too hard? Sweet. There's an app for that.
Film Developer Timer Pro
It seems to be a well constructed app, especially the timer. However, I am worried abou tthe accurarcy of the data. For example, to develop Ilford HP5+ in Ilfosol 3 at 20ºC the timer specifies 3mins 15 secs with agitation every 30 seconds. The app says that this is based on data from Ilford. . I checked other sources including Ilford on line and the recommended time is 6 mins 30 secs. This calls into question the accruracy of all of the times.

Response from developer
Thank you for your feedback. Did you set the film speed and dilution appropriately? For 400 ASA, 1+9 dilution, 20°C and 1 minute agitation the app gives me the same development time of 6:30 for this film/developer combination as in the Ilford data sheets. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions. Just go to the app settings and select "Contact".
Disappointed
This app was disappointing. So much is missing. A safe light for starters. And then, where is the timer for stop bath and fixed as advertised. I had a much better timer before my phone died. Unfortunately, that timer isn't in Apple apps anymore. One star for an over priced and a
Disappointing app.
Disappointing app.
Great app
Great app, very useful. Would be great if you can setup whole process from developing to rinsing.
