## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Will not save new times for additional processing

*2020-02-12*

After adding a new development sequence for a new film process, the times disappear

**Developer response:** Hi, I'm sorry you were having issues with the app. Version 1.4.1 was released yesterday and shold resolve your issues with saving development recipes.

### 3/5 — Great with one flaw

*2022-06-07*

Timers keep resetting randomly. Not sure why

### 4/5 — Very good app

*2025-08-28*

Just need to add the temperature

### 4/5 — Great minimal app

*2025-07-11*

Does what it says and keeps time if you switch contexts to another app, which is important. Has worked remarkably well since forever.

Only real downside is recipe organisation is a bit basic - you can store a name and steps. Would be nice to have separate fields for film/ASA, developer and concentration. But if you only shoot a few stocks then you just look up the chart and make a new entry. If you're into lots of combinations it might be frustrating.

### 4/5 — Darkroom

*2022-10-22, version 1.4.2*

Interessante strumento per chi preferisce sviluppare da se le pellicole

### 4/5 — Good but change how the reset works

*2018-10-10, version 1.1*

The only app I found on the apple store for developing E6 film. A bit cumbersome to edit a profile, but works. What really stops to have 5 stars is that the reset button doesn’t ask for a confirmation. If pressed in error then it is a disaster, as you completely lose your work.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2026-02-07*

No bells and whistles but does exactly what it‘s intended to do.

### 5/5 — Very helpful.

*2021-07-18*

Makes development a lot simpler when you use different film speeds.

### 5/5 — Beautiful

*2021-02-08, version 1.4.2*

Great app. Great work!

### 5/5 — Thank you

*2020-05-31, version 1.4.1*

Really useful, tank you

### 5/5 — The Perfect Darkroom App

*2018-09-08*

Easy to use, configurable and equally useful for paper, negative or alternative processing. And it’s free. What are you waiting for?

### 5/5 — Best free darkroom timer

*2018-07-20*

It’s great! Come preloaded with a bunch of film and developer combos I don’t use, but simple to generate your own timer. Just convert to seconds, which it doesn’t specifically tell you to do...
