Lghtmtr is a beautifully simple light meter that helps you find — and understand — the ideal exposure settings for a scene. Built for film photographers and anyone learning the craft, it makes the relationship between ISO, aperture, and shutter speed feel intuitive and the visual feedback helps reinforce the connection between them. Take a reading, get your settings, and start exploring. Adjust one value and the others respond instantly. Lock settings to experiment and see how each change affects your exposure.

About

semory

semory is a disposable camera for your phone. load a roll, name it, and choose how long it should sit in the dark. then shoot. twenty-four pictures, no preview, no retakes, no deleting the bad ones. the viewfinder shows you the moment and then it's gone. nothing comes back right away. that's the whole point. your roll stays sealed for as long as you chose, seven days at the least, and then it develops the way film does: one picture at a time, spaced out, until the last one arrives. you spend a week remembering the night instead of scrolling it. no filters. no likes. no feed. — how it works — load a roll give it a name, vacation, 21st, sunday - and set the wait. shoot 24 one tap, one picture. you won't see it. wait the roll is sealed. a countdown, and nothing else. it comes back pictures open one by one until the roll is complete. — with friends — add the people who were there. when your pictures open, they open for your friends too, and they can leave a short note on any of them, "i was there." it's the closest thing to passing prints around a table. sealed pictures stay hidden from everyone until they open. yours included. — semory+ — optional. the app is complete without it. semory+ adds more rolls at once and longer waits, for the people who keep several going. semory is for 13 and over. — terms of use — https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ https://semory.cedru.workers.dev/privacy https://semory.cedru.workers.dev/terms
