User Reviews and Ratings
★★☆☆☆New version needs iteration
Crop seems to be gone (which is a show stopper for me), color adjustments are much more difficult to get right, it’s way less automatic, and just more difficult to use all around. I can see the potential in the new version but it’s not there yet.
★★★☆☆Decent but missing major features
Does a decent job with black-and-white negatives. But it’s missing some major features, including the ability to select a bunch of scans and upload them at one time rather than individually.
Also, I don’t see why cannot have manually adjustable exposure.
Even better would be if it used the HDR feature on the camera to capture a wide dynamic range so negatives are a slightly under exposed and slightly overexposed all capture perfectly and separated out.
Add all these features and it’s worth $2
★★★★★Take your time:)
Please be a little patient and discover an amazing app!! It works great if you put your negative against a light source, you’ll be amazed!!!
★★★★★Excellent app
Not sure why this app has poor reviews. I have tried the other negative scanning apps in the App Store and FilmLab works the best. It scans negatives with a clean and easy to use interface. It has just the right amount of tools and will save a Tiff file. It doesn’t have the intrusive magic filters or colorizing features that are always in your face. It’s a solid straightforward app.
★★★★★Try this app!
I don’t really understand the reviews for this app or what people expect a phone scan to look like. This app is by far better than any other negative conversion app (if you have good lighting behind the negative). To be fair I am using and enlarger with no lens as my light source but I’ve had some amazing scans for a phone with this app that I don’t even mind posting. Honestly this app worked so well this is the only review I’ve ever left for any app
