Grain simulation is really good

Wifi looker

Much better grain simulation than most other apps including VSCO and RNI. this is really the most realistic black and white green simulator mobile. Only desktops simulators can compare to this. Very impressed keep up the great work. Only thing that could be better would be adding some more options like grain size or amount of grain in highlights vs shadows.

Right on!

Accolades to Jim Moore, the creator of this app. I’ve been able to produce some spectacular results with this app. It’s well-executed and easy to use. Just at with it and you can see your photos really come to life with the various filters and film-type settings. Only things I would change would be to make it a bit more visually appealing and when you change from one type of film to another, the grain, contrast are super askew and make it difficult to dial it back in at times.

-No “cancel” option on a pic -when I use the “save” option and “X” for cancel it, this app turns frozen...

Will not login to Adobe

It looks abandoned, judging from the date to the last update. The Adobe CC login is broken and it also tends to “pause” a lot due to ... ?

My fave app to convert to B&W

I loved how the filters let you emphasize different parts of a photo by using color channels. I am not too keen on the new 35mm camera style interface, wish there was an option to toggle back to the old interface.

What’s the point?

What’s the point of having both a shutter speed adjustment and an exposure adjustment - the both do exactly the same thing! A redundant waste of space. AND, where’s the option to choose NO filter? It used to exist. I can see where by increasing ISO you thereby increase grain, but unless you’re a photographer you might no know or understand that. Are you just adding or changing features for the sake of change without adding usefulness? A BIG miss! UPDATE: In response to the developer’s response - that still makes NO sense! Why not just call UV No Filter (NF) if that’s what it s or supposed to be? And, using Shutter to adjust brightness and contrast (doubtful) is just ridiculous! As a working professional photographer for over 40 years it’s my opinion that you’ve gone backwards with your app.

Tool menus orientation wrong

Photo is in portrait mode, but tool menus show up in landscape mode.

Eh

It works fine for maybe two or three picture but after that it crashes every time you want to upload a new picture, thus rendering this app useless. Some work needs to be done.

Really nice Black & White photo app. It's easy to use and produces excellent results. Nice explanation of each filter effect. Very basic app, but does one thing very well. ***I really like is that it adds a border to the outside of your photo, instead of covering part of the picture.***

Straight forward eye pleasing black & white

Great app for eye pleasing black & white conversion of correctly exposed color photo.
