Great tool
very useful
Great addition
Happy to have this add which is integrated in to the companion general light-meter app. This is what I have been waiting for. I’m still getting used to it - it works, but I find the interface a bit clunky. I am sure this will improve in future updates with additional feedback. The app is worth it. Recommended.
Update 4-9-26: since using the app more regularly and now outside in sunny conditions, must report issues I hope the developer can address.
1) The app can’t take a reading unless one is very steady - it would be helpful if there was some sort of buffer that would make it less susceptible to this. Some of us have shaky hands:(
2) Sadly, the app is hard to use in bright sunlight - even with my iPhone setting adjusted for midday brightness. The layout of the interface ‘disappears’ - it is hard to scope through the 1% view circle. The tab/buttons & scope circle can hardly be seen so the meter impossible to use efficiently. Perhaps the developer can work on interface contrast/visibility options for different ambient light situations? I’m not visually impaired and I find the app almost useless in midday sun.
The app is still worth it - but without improvements in the interface its usability will vary depending on the environment one is using it in.

Response from developer
Thank you very much for your detailed feedback. I really appreciate you taking the time to update your review after using the app more extensively. Both points are very helpful, and I’ll work on improving the tolerance to hand movement and the interface visibility in bright sunlight soon. Thanks again for your support and feedback! David
Accurate and well-designed
I tested this app against a “real” light meter and it was accurate to within .2EV, and the app allows users to calibrate manually or within the app itself. The developer has a very well illustrated and short manual as a pdf download. This is as good as they get for an iPhone - based light meter!
Works well
It’s a good app. I use it everyday.
