### 5/5 — Great companion app

*2026-07-23, version 1.32.0*

This is a great app to keep track of the analog photography workflow. Missing the scanning the negative feature. If the app has it I will surely update to premium subscription

### 5/5 — Unfassbar gut

*2025-09-13, version 1.23.0*

Normalerweise schreibe ich keine Rezensionen. Aber diese App hat es verdient. Wenn man in der analogen Fotografie unterwegs ist, ist sie genau das was man sucht.   Nicht nur die Möglichkeit des Lightmeters, sondern auch direkt die Angaben zum Film, der Kamera und dem Objektiv speichern zu können sind der Gamechanger überhaupt.  Ich würde mehr als 5 Sterne geben, wenn es möglich wäre!

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-08-01, version 1.22.0*

Terrible app. Doesn’t work. I hope the dev gets replaced with AI so it can at least build a decent app

### 5/5 — 🎉👏👏👏👏

*2025-03-20, version 1.13.0*

Really nice app for organizing the films. Storing the scanned images is a very convenient feature. I have no idea where half of my scanned images from last year. The image view and the uploading part needs some work and tweaking but it works ok 👍

### 5/5 — Love this app, my new analog photo journal

*2025-03-19, version 1.13.0*

I’m still quite new to the world of analog photography. This app is really helpful to understand the different types of film and I love that I can upload my own results for each film and camera. Excited to see any future features. 😊

### 5/5 — Exactly what I was looking for!

*2025-02-18, version 1.13.0*

This app does it all, and it does it all well.  Organization and documentation is everything in my opinion when you are shooting film.  It’s very important when viewing one of your images to know, where, when, film type, lens, etc. that you used to make the photograph.  

This app is your one shop stop.  It is very well designed and easy to navigate.  I love that you can upload the scanned images of each individual roll to the app in the same folder that contains all of the information that pertains to that particular roll.

BRAVO to the developers for making this app, a must have for any film photographer 👏

### 5/5 — light or dark

*2024-11-05, version 1.12.0*

this app is exactly what a begnner like myself requires. i can speak for the features a pro might light but digging out my nikon F 1959 35 mm camera that requires a mercury battery for the light meter presented a daunting task. 
The solution was the app which immediately connected the triangle of good photo capture .
thank you thank you thank you

### 5/5 — Great Companion App

*2024-07-04, version 1.7.1*

Organizing scanned pictures in cloud storage is a great feature. Worth the subscription.
