Cool but wish it was customizable
p8blr

So I bought this to develop my first roll of Ilford HP5+ and while it was super helpful I had to write a couple notes to myself where I altered your events such as the hypo clear step. Could you please let us edit the titles or even let us add our own operations?


PLEASE FIX!
IanHurdle

Love the app! BUT. Please fix the home screen line (located at the bottom of the screen on iPhone XS) while in darkroom mode. It is emitting a bright light during development. I’m having to duct tape over it at the moment. Thank you!!!!


Way different on iPad
Panasonic-X

No film or developer combos like on the iPhone app. Safelight mode doesn't work on the iPad, big WHITE banner that displays template name over the "safelight" mode display, which makes "safelight" mode is worthless. Great app on Android/iPhone but extremely disappointing on iPad.


Love the web site - the app not so much.

Can't give "My times" steps meaningful titles - if your work flow deviates at all, it can't be saved in a useful way. Notes don't word wrap so you can see them. An app this mature should at least be aware of new sentences - auto capitalization is built in to the OS. I do enough traditional processing to probably keep it but pretty sad for 9 bucks.


Truly amazing
Lenscratch

This has pretty much every type of film/developer I use. It’s an amazing app that makes developing super easy and it allows you to customize and make adjustments as needed. It would be amazing for them to include color film options, especially since c-41 kits are becoming more popular and obtainable for at home developing.


Black and white only

No where does it state its black and white only. Completely useless to me.


Latest upgrade broke on iPhone 4S
Earlrond

I’ve been using this app for quite some time, and must say it is very useful when I develop black and white film, and I rather like it. However the latest upgrade broke on my iPhone 4S despite the fact that the phone is running iOS 9.3.5, which the app is supposed to run on. The problem is that UI elements tend to overlap on the screen, making some parameters impossible to change. (Example: trying to turn on time-temperature conversions changes the temperature setting! I tried using a stylus instead of my finger but it didn’t do any good.) The app works fine on my iPhone 6S+, but as that is my primary phone I’d rather not expose it to chemicals - that’s what I use the old 4S for. Guess I won’t have a choice until the problem is fixed in a future update. Could I make another suggestion? Please allow different agitation regimens for developing and fixing.


Great app
DocTranimal

Awesome and invaluable. I wished the alarms rang when I'm on another app like YouTube though...


Absolutely Amazing

I would not have gotten this unless I got an iTunes gift card. Luckily I did. This app is imperative to anyone that develops at home. They give you every development time for every film and developer. Also, if you have experimented in the past and changed Dev times a little, you can edit each time as well. Absolutely amazing app


Good stuff
FidoPod

Works great, conversion of time/temp is great. Good list of films and developers. Able to edit to suit your taste
