## What is mySpotMeter?

Designed by a photographer, for photographers.

Built with one clear goal: precise spot metering for photographers who want full control over exposure.

mySpotMeter turns your iPhone into a dedicated spot meter with selectable 1°, 2° and 4° measuring angles. Whether you shoot film or digital, you can isolate specific areas, evaluate contrast and place your exposure with confidence.

Key Features
• Selectable 1°, 2° and 4° spot metering angles
• Dedicated readings for shadows, highlights and middle gray
• Aperture or shutter speed priority
• Average readings mode
• Store and compare measurements directly on the exposure scale
• Clear EV difference between your target and the current reading
• Instant aperture calculation based on the selected ISO and shutter speed
• Shutter speed range from 240 seconds to 1/8000s
• Aperture range from f/1.0 to f/128

Built for Deliberate Exposure
Instead of averaging the entire scene, mySpotMeter lets you measure only the area that matters. Compare shadows and highlights, understand the available contrast and decide exactly where to place your exposure before pressing the shutter.

### 5/5 — Accurate and well-designed

*2026-08-18*

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!
