Roll Shot Setting vs Cut Matter
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side โ with what reviewers say about each.
Roll Shot Setting
Read full descriptionHide full description
Roll Shot Setting is a film photography companion for analog photographers who want to understand why their frames succeed or fail โ and improve deliberately rather than by accident. Digital cameras embed exposure data in every image file automatically. Film cameras record nothing. The shot is made, the roll is finished, days pass before development, more time passes before scanning, and the results arrive entirely disconnected from the decisions that created them. Most film photographers improve slowly across years of shooting without ever clearly understanding the relationship between what they did and what they got. Roll Shot Setting closes that gap. When a new roll is loaded, the photographer creates a roll entry: film stock from a built-in database of over two hundred emulsions, rated ISO to capture push or pull intention in a single number, camera body, lens, and location. Then as they shoot, they add frame notes for any frame worth tracking โ aperture, shutter speed, how the scene was metered, and a short note on intent. Not every frame needs a note. Only the ones where the decision matters. When scans arrive from the lab, they are imported and matched against the frame log in a side-by-side view. Each matched frame shows the scan alongside the aperture, shutter speed, and the note written at the time of shooting. The comparison between what was intended and what resulted is where the learning happens. The archive shows every roll shot, organised by roll, by camera body, or by film stock. The film stock view shows all rolls shot on a given emulsion, sorted by development process โ what Kodak Portra 400 looks like pushed one stop versus rated at box speed, based on the photographer's own shooting history rather than anyone else's. After a year of regular use, the statistics screen identifies patterns in exposure bias and shooting cadence that are invisible without the data. A home screen widget shows the current active roll and how many frames have been logged. No account. No subscription. No network connection required.

Cut Matter Cut it. Shape it. Master it. What happens when you stop putting things together โ and start cutting them apart? Cut Matter is a tactile physics puzzle where every solution begins with a single object and your own cut. Draw a line with your finger. Cut the object. Watch the pieces separate, fall, rotate, collide, and move according to the cut you made. Your goal is simple: create the right pieces with the right shape, size, or proportion. But precision matters. Cut objects into a specific number of pieces Create equal or proportional parts Match target shapes and symmetry Solve puzzles with limited cuts Avoid forbidden zones and protect hidden cores Master increasingly challenging levels Improve your accuracy and chase the perfect cut Take on the Daily Cut challenge Discover new materials and unusual objects Every cut changes the geometry. Every piece behaves differently. And every solution is yours. Start simple. Think spatially. Cut precisely. Can you make the perfect cut?

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Cut Matter at every 2 days against Roll Shot Setting's every 4 days. Cut Matter also leads on iOS requirement (16.0 vs 18.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
