We created nossaflex because there was nothing we could find on the App Store that ticked all of our boxes whilst looking good. NOSSAFLEX is a naming convention that helps you know your settings as a glance. NO = Number, SS = Shutter Speed, A = Aperture, FL = Focal Length, EX = Exposure. This all lives in the filename of your images so you don't require a metadata reader to get this info out. Our app not only presents your data in this format but it also allows other information like roll names and film stocks used. Our app has these current features for your endless use: – A digital library for your cameras, lenses and rolls to live in. – Custom-built light meter so you can get readings for all of your cameras. – Ability to add in text descriptions for each photo. – Take a reference photo on your phone so you know what the scene looked like when you captured it on your camera. – The location of your shot can be tracked if you give the app permission. Happy shooting!

About

Features
Read full description

FlickerSafe is a camera-based LED flicker tester for filmmakers, photographers, streamers, and event crews. Point your iPhone at a light to see its flicker frequency, modulation, and camera risk before you shoot. Use FlickerSafe when scouting venues, setting up a home studio, comparing LED panels, checking dimmer levels, or preparing a shoot where lighting needs to stay camera-safe. Key features: - Estimate dominant flicker frequency from camera luminance samples - Measure modulation depth and camera risk - Check common shutter speeds such as 1/50, 1/60, 1/100, and 1/120 - Get safer shutter-speed suggestions for the detected light - Save fixture measurements and history for later reference - Export production reports with FlickerSafe Pro FlickerSafe is designed as a practical field tool, not a laboratory instrument. Results depend on device camera capabilities, ambient light, fixture brightness, and how steadily the phone is held during capture.
