What's New in See Value

2.0.4

May 14, 2018

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon. Photo saving failure was showing an unhelpful "Data unavailable" error when the user didn't grant the app access to the Photo Library. Now the app will present a detailed message about how to enable the required permissions to be able to save photos.

Excellent little tool

I’m a landscape painter, and this is an excellent little tool to see values in reference photos. 99 cents well spent. Save the value rendering back to your camera roll, and compare side by sides. Yes, there are other apps with more features, but they’re either full of ads or charge by the month. This does what I need.

Could be better

I needed ability to see five values to match five-step shadows to highlights distinctions so went with something else.
