Impressive app

The app provides a detailed spectral graph using data it collects from the iPhone camera. Very impressive and useful for light analysis in various environmental conditions. Kudos to the developers!
Camera issues on iPhone X!!
MIKE CANVAS
There’s a serious camera issue when opening up the app on the iPhone X on iOS 11.4.1. Video/picture feed is super fuzzy and not sharp at all! Update: AUG 2020, 2 years later and the camera issue has NOT been fixed!! I’m now on an iPhone 11 Pro Max running iOS 13.6. This app is still having issues focusing both the rear and front facing cameras! Anything in front of it still remains unfocused!! There is still no tap to focus option! What a disappointment and waste of money!!
Color temp without external hardware!

I was looking for an app to measure color temp without external hardware. I found this after trying several others and was very pleased.
Very misleading

This app claims to show you a spectrum of the light it is observing. This is impossible since each IPhone pixel can only measure the relative strengths of the red, blue and green light entering the camera. This makes suspicious of every bit of data the app displays
Super cool!

First, the fact that it does what normally takes thousands of dollars in tools is fantastic. No, it's probably not nearly as accurate as pro devices to do this work and having said that, since I don't have access to pro-grade tools I cannot say how the accuracy of this compares. But now I have a way to quantify the various values of light sources, and most helpfully, I can compare them objectively. This is certainly an app that every art, theatre lighting and photography student should own. Such a good learning tool to see how light sources and color interact. For homeowners this tool helps sort through the spec's of the multitude of light bulbs at the big box stores. I'm using this on an iPhone 6s with no problems. My only complaints: -The interface can get cluttered. Using it in landscape mode helps that quite a bit. In portrait mode, at least on my little phone, things get piled on each other. Wish it would run on my older iPad! -The helpful explanatory tips are good, but I wish I could figure out how to shut them off. -I wish I could take screen shots in landscape view. Wish: -Now if it had a way to measure flicker of bulbs! Don't care, make it a separate app or make it a purchasable upgrade for this one. I'd buy it!
Scam

App does not measure spectrum. iPhone does not have spectral sensor. I compared this apps readings to Sekonic C7000 spectrometer and a Photo Research PR670 ($20,000 instrument). This app’s readings are completely wrong.
Misspellings

Some old-fashioned people think that a quality program should have no misspellings. So think about ‘cancel’ and ‘wavelength’, please. Aren’t you embarrassed by these errors?
