The whole “filling a roll before being able to see them” thing is super cool. Great job on this app. **Developer response:** I am so happy to hear this! Thank you for taking the time to write a review ✌🏼 ### 5/5 — Perfect 😍 *2023-11-24* I just found this app like 2 months ago and I really enjoy it, I love retro / vintage cameras and I love this film cam, if you like retro style film cams then u should for sure give this one a try! Definitely an A+ in my book lol 😆 ### 5/5 — 11/10 😁 *2023-10-23, version 1.0.8* We’ve all searched up “film camera” before and gotten pretty mixed results. This app has the best filters I’ve ever seen, they are very realistic compared to real film. The concept of waiting for them to develop is really fun too but it can be annoying sometimes. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 2/5 — Unable to upgrade to PRO *2024-07-07* I keep trying to upgrade to pro and it doesn’t let me. I thought with the app updating I would be able to upgrade. Please fix. **Developer response:** Hi - sorry for the extremely late response but this has been fixed. ### 4/5 — Camera control please *2026-07-03* Amazing app with an amazing concept! Would love to see support for the camera control button. **Developer response:** Hi, thank you for the feedback and support. Camera Control support has been added to v6.2.0 and is now available for use. Click to capture or swipe to change lenses. Additionally, the volume buttons now double as shutter buttons. ### 5/5 — Super fun with great results *2024-10-24* Great concept. Relax and shoot photos without worrying how they came out. Shoot 24 exposures and then “develop” them to see the results. It really takes pressure off creating the “perfect pic” and just appreciate the moment. Lots of different film sticks to take advantage of along with controls to get the right look. You can even create/design your own film stock. Bravo to the creator! **Developer response:** Thank you for the kind feedback, I'm happy to hear that you are enjoying it! ### 5/5 — Excellent vintage camera app *2024-07-19* I’ve downloaded quite a few “film simulator” camera apps over time- some good, some not. NAFC is a different beast. The photos you snap are “held” from being able to see them until you’ve completed the 24 frame “roll”. It truly mirrors shooting with a real film camera- you can’t see your work until you “develop” the shots. You can develop early of course but that takes the fun out of the process. Great filters, intuitive UI, regular feature updates from the developer… just an all around solid camera app. I would whole heartedly recommend a download. Give it a solid week of shooting and I’m pretty confident you’ll be very pleased with the outcome!! ### 5/5 — 10/10 *2024-07-15* This has to be one of the best photo apps, it need more recognition. or keep it underground so nobody hoops on the film camera trend. but with all the different film its so unique and a whole new vibe every time. big love-jude👊🏼 **Developer response:** Thank you for the kind feedback! I appreciate it greatly. ### 5/5 — Great App With A Great Concept *2024-07-08* Recently was looking for a disposable camera as I love its retro vibe but wanted to take more photos with it and didn’t want to pay so much for film. I found this app, saw the great reviews, and immediately installed it and those reviews are certainly justified. The amount of simple customizability and amazing filters are great. One thing that I am confused about is the pro version. When I click on the pro button in the settings, the page just loads infinitely. This app is great and I would be interested in paying a bit for more features but the page doesn’t load so hopefully that fixes soon. Other than that, amazing app. **Developer response:** Thank you for the feedback, I'm glad to hear that you have enjoyed using my app. The issue with Pro has been fixed, sorry for the super late reply! ### 5/5 — Best film app *2024-05-03* This app is amazing! Looks like real film! Definitely recommend. ### 5/5 — 🎞️🎞️🎞️ *2024-04-15* The photos turn out so esthetic, I highly recommend!! ### 5/5 — Love it *2024-04-01, version 4.8.4* Love this app a lot it helped me create something unique and go with creativity. A small improvement that would mean the world here is to add the possibility of using the volume button to activate the shutter. I use a Bluetooth grip to set the mood and it uses the volume button to activate it so I can’t use the grip with this app. ### 5/5 — The most realistic Film effect! *2024-03-01* I'm delighted with this incredible application that has a touch of magic! The developer is a genius who knows how to offer the best quality and a unique experience when taking photos with this fantastic camera application. It is one of the few who worries about updating frequently, two or three times a week, to solve problems and add new quality features. I've been following him since he launched the application and I'm very satisfied. The most impressive thing about this application is that you can create your own classic photography filter to your liking, to achieve an effect similar to photography rolls such as kodak, fuji, Arg, and other legendary brands that no longer exist. Thank you for providing this experience. **Developer response:** I am truly speechless after reading this, thank you for taking the time to share such kind feedback. Reviews like this make it all worth it! ## Most praised reviews (2 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Love the UI and Films *2024-02-28, version 4.1* I absolutely adore the clean and elegantly designed minimalistic user interface, where every icon finds its place effortlessly. Moreover, the diverse selection of film presets, complete with captivating previews and the allowing us to add our own custom films through film lab feature sets this app apart. Altogether, this app and its film effects transform my ordinary snapshots into delightful memories. ### 5/5 — Film meets iPhone *2024-02-12* The rolls concept, and waiting for a batch before developing brings you back to a time before digital cameras. It adds a sense of whimsy as well as eagerness to develop a roll and see how the shots turned out. Less about capturing the perfect photo, and more about staying in the moment and seeing the memories later when you’ve filled up a roll. Awesome app. Beautiful filters and film grain. **Developer response:** Thank you for such kind feedback :) I’m glad you’re enjoying [nafc]! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
