### 3/5 — What happened?

*2026-05-09*

I have been using this app for years and now with a recent update the scans look awful! I only use it for B&W scans. I’m using the the latest OS.

### 3/5 — Basically works for BW, doesn’t really correct for color

*2025-01-21*

This app basically works, but it simply inverts the image, so color negatives end up with a blue tent that you have to correct anyway in a desktop app. The actual color correction for C 22 and C 41 film is fairly complex, so it’s understandable why this app doesn’t handle it.

### 2/5 — No live option

*2024-01-31*

Ad driven. 

Has no “live” option to show me an inverted image through the camera in real time.

### 4/5 — Simple photo inverting app

*2022-12-03*

This is a very simple app that allows you to quickly invert your pictures and negatives.  I wanted it so I could see what my color film negatives would look like when a positive print is made. I wish it had some filters to modify the resultant colors, but it doesn’t.  In summary, it’s a quick and easy way to preview (and save) your film negatives, or invert your pictures for artistic effect.

### 4/5 — Worked perfectly

*2022-04-03, version 4.1*

I don’t know why people say it’s bad. I needed to invert a simple image and this app made it exactly as I wanted to

### 4/5 — It worked for me

*2021-10-08, version 4.1*

I needed to invert a simple B/W gif and it worked perfectly.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2020-09-22, version 3.1*

No watermarks and works well

### 5/5 — Miss You

*2019-12-03, version 2.5*

i miss u

### 5/5 — Please update!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*2019-09-11, version 2.5*

It’s a great app, but it won’t work now that Apple has done its OS upgrades.

### 5/5 — THIS WAS THE BEST NEGATIVE PHOTO APP

*2019-05-15, version 2.5*

This app by far was the best for negative photo conversion. Will it ever be updated for ios11?

### 4/5 — Need update!

*2018-10-03, version 2.5*

Please update...awesome app, needs update!!

### 4/5 — Please Update!

*2018-06-28*

This is the only negative app that lets you easily make a negative WITHOUT the program foolishly cropping and screwing with the resolution of your image.  However, now I am trying to re-download this and I can’t because it needs updated to ios11!

For such an absurdly simple task, why is it so hard to easily convert images to negative and save them in a high quality format??

Chemical photography enthusiasts everywhere need this tool.

### 5/5 — Absolutely fantastic

*2025-03-29, version 4.1*

This app helped me out with developing a set of Victorian glass slides I recently acquired. These came out fantastically. Brilliant!!

### 5/5 — A Godsend For Me!

*2025-03-20*

I downloaded this today to take scans of 120 and 220 black and white film negatives to positive images, and brother is it easy! I can save the inverted image back to Photos on my iPad, complete edits, and done. I’m thrilled!

### 5/5 — Basic app that just works!

*2023-05-18, version 4.1*

It is simple, maybe a bit rough around the edges, but it does the job and it is free. All I need is to invert the colours of pictures and I don’t want to pay for stuff I don’t need, so this is the one.

### 5/5 — Works great!

*2023-02-28, version 4.1*

I use this simple app to scan and convert black and white negatives to positive images. I then adjust and crop in another app. It’s simple, fast and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Review

*2021-08-13*

The App Simply serves its purpose.

### 5/5 — Love

*2021-08-13*

Absolutely love this app! Did exactly what I needed it to do. I’m not a bright or pink person and the picture I wanted was just that. This app makes white to black then pink to teal! LOVE IT!

### 5/5 — awesome app thanks very much. i had it for ions

*2021-07-09*

very good telephone app.
很好的电话App。

### 5/5 — Love it

*2021-06-30, version 3.1*

Been using this app for nearly a year now I think. It does what it says on the tin. Not many things left in this world that can make the same claim. Great apps like this are a rarity. Kind of there are some awesome apps out there but yea this app is great.

### 5/5 — A Very Simple App that Does What it Says

*2021-03-26*

I had a photo negative that I wanted to convert, but I couldn’t do it with the “edit” option in my gallery or even in PhotoShop free version.  This app took care of the problem in seconds.  No bells and whistles, just an app that does one thing reliably.  Thanks.

### 5/5 — Simple and effective

*2020-11-25, version 3.1*

Easy to use and no watermark!!!!
