About

PaperDeveloper

Features
Read full description

PaperDeveloper is a precise darkroom timer for the full wet process of photographic paper. Set your paper, chemistry, dilution, temperature and volumes. The app sets accurate times based on manufacturer data. The built-in timer guides you through every step — developer, stop bath, fixer, wash, and optional toning. Track multiple papers and test strips at once, and save quick presets. KEY FEATURES • Timing for the full B&W paper wet process • Papers, chemistry, dilutions and temperatures • Multiple runs at once (paper + test strip) • Presets for quick setup • Chemical capacity / yield tracking • Red UI for darkroom use • Works offline — no account, no cloud Currently the app includes manufacturer materials from FOMA. In a future version we will add materials from manufacturers such as Ilford and ADOX. Important: the red interface helps in the darkroom, but PaperDeveloper is not a certified safelight. Please keep that in mind. Enlarge — don’t scan!
