Subscription Trap, Avoid.
Accurate but annoying
Too expensive
Response from developer
Thanks for the thoughtful feedback. We understand that weekly pricing is not the right fit for everyone. The weekly plan is intended for short-term users who only need the app for a specific job, shoot, or project. For longer-term users, we offer an annual plan with a significant discount compared with paying weekly. We’re glad to hear the app otherwise seems good, and we appreciate the feedback on pricing. We’ll continue reviewing how we present our options so users can choose the plan that best fits their needs.
No free option available… just 7 day trial by agreeing subscription
Response from developer
We’re sorry the free option was not clear. The app does include a free plan, which can be accessed by closing the payment offer screen without starting a trial or subscription. The subscription shown on that screen is optional. Any free trial, price, renewal period, and billing terms are displayed by Apple during the App Store confirmation flow before purchase. We understand that the subscription may not be the right fit for everyone, and we appreciate the feedback. We’ll continue working to make the free option clearer.
Come on con
Response from developer
We’re sorry the pricing felt frustrating. The app is free to download and does include a free plan, which can be accessed by simply closing the payment offer screen. Any optional subscription, free trial, price, and renewal terms are shown by Apple during the App Store subscription confirmation flow before purchase. We understand that weekly pricing is not the right fit for everyone, and you can cancel anytime through your Apple ID subscription settings. We appreciate the feedback and will continue working to make the free option and subscription choices as clear as possible.
TERRIBLE. DON'T BUY.
Response from developer
Thank you for the kind words about the app itself – we really appreciate that. We understand the subscription model isn't for everyone, and it's a fair point of view. For us, subscriptions allow us to fund ongoing development, device updates, operating system updates, and support as a small independent team. We do offer a free tier with core functionality if that's a better fit. We genuinely appreciate the feedback and hope you'll stick around.

Ridiculous hi price for no features
Failed at critical time
If the app needs to use the internet for some reason before starting then that’s terrible design. If by some chance you end up somewhere with no signal like me then you’re SOL.

Hi Jorshh, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re really sorry to hear that Light Meter Ultra didn’t function as expected during your hike – we understand how frustrating it is when a tool you rely on fails at a critical moment. The app is designed to operate fully offline once installed, so the behaviour you described is not what we intend. Your feedback is extremely valuable, and we’ll be reviewing this scenario carefully to ensure the app remains reliable even in areas with no signal. Please feel free to reach out using the in-app support link or via our App Store page so we can gather a few more details and investigate further. Best wishes, The Ultrafine Helpdesk Team.
It was going to be a good review, but…
Response from developer
Hi G8086, Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We understand that many users feel fatigued by the growing number of subscriptions in the app ecosystem, and we genuinely appreciate you taking the time to explain your concerns in detail. Light Meter Ultra offers PRO plans to support ongoing development and maintenance, but we also provide a completely free version of the app that includes core functionality with no registration or login required. We never sell, trade, or share personal information – this is strictly governed by our privacy policy and by data-protection laws such as GDPR, which we follow closely. We also don’t require users to create an account to use the app, so your name and email are not collected as part of using Light Meter Ultra. We hope this provides clarity on how we handle both subscriptions and user privacy. If you have any further questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out via the support link in-app or on our App Store product page. Best wishes, The Ultrafine Helpdesk Team.
Không hữu dụng
Tưởng là auto tự đoán thông số đầy đủ cho tốc , khẩu , iso. Ai ngờ chẳng được gì ngoài EV, còn lại tự chỉnh tay. Lại còn hên xui nữa, nên khuyên ae ai muốn tải thì cân nhắc
Response from developer
Chào DatLT99999, Cảm ơn bạn đã phản hồi và đã dùng thử Light Meter Ultra. Chúng tôi rất tiếc khi biết ứng dụng chưa đáp ứng được kỳ vọng của bạn. Light Meter Ultra cung cấp giá trị EV và cho phép người dùng tự điều chỉnh tốc độ, khẩu độ và ISO để có thể chọn thiết lập phơi sáng phù hợp nhất – cách tiếp cận này nhằm mang lại sự linh hoạt và độ chính xác cho nhiều phong cách chụp khác nhau. Tuy nhiên, chúng tôi hiểu rằng một số người dùng muốn ứng dụng đưa ra gợi ý hoàn toàn tự động, và phản hồi của bạn rất hữu ích cho quá trình cải thiện sản phẩm. Chúng tôi sẽ xem xét kỹ lưỡng điều này cho các bản cập nhật sắp tới. Nếu bạn có bất kỳ câu hỏi nào hoặc muốn chia sẻ thêm, xin vui lòng liên hệ qua liên kết hỗ trợ trong ứng dụng hoặc trang sản phẩm của chúng tôi trên App Store. Trân trọng, Đội ngũ Hỗ trợ Ultrafine.

Hi xX_Rhys_Poggington_Xx, Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. While Light Meter Ultra does offer PRO plans to support ongoing development and maintenance, we also provide a completely free version of the app that includes key features at no cost and with no registration required. The PRO options are there for users who want additional tools and enhanced functionality, but the free version remains fully usable for essential light-metering tasks. We hope this helps clarify our approach. If you have any further questions, please feel free to reach out via the support link in-app or on our App Store product page. Best wishes, The Ultrafine Helpdesk Team.
What/How??
Simple and easy to use.
No me funciona
Not good
Response from developer
Hi rnone rhino I w saw hmr jf, Thanks for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear your experience didn’t meet expectations. Just to clarify: the accuracy of the meter is the same in both the free and PRO versions – upgrading only unlocks additional features, not improved core measurement quality. Light Meter uses the same metering algorithms leveraged by Apple in their built‑in camera system, combined with device sensor data, so the readings should be consistent with the capabilities of your iPhone hardware. That said, results can vary depending on the quality of film, calibration of the camera shutter mechanism, and shooting conditions. For best results, we recommend keeping the lens clean, metering from a consistent position, and adjusting for any known offsets specific to your camera hardware. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us refine the app experience for everyone. Best regards, The Ultrafine Helpdesk Team
Pretty basic
Response from developer
Hi GreyStudio, Thank you for your feedback. We understand how useful strobe readings can be and would love to support that feature. Unfortunately, strobe (flash) frequency readings require dedicated high‑speed light sensors, which aren’t available on standard smartphone hardware. The app relies on the sensors built into your device, so it’s limited to continuous light measurements. We appreciate your input – it helps us understand what features users are looking for, and we’ll continue to explore ways to expand the app’s capabilities as hardware evolves. Best regards, The Ultrafine Helpdesk Team
