The mobile scanner is a clever design. I’m using it with my iPhone to digitize color slides. Using the app, I got terrible (fuzzy) images. If I simply use my phone’s camera, I get great results. I have to crop and edit later with either my phone’s image editor or Photoshop (but even app-generated photos require editing). TIP: remove your phone from any case or holder, as those things affect the focal distance.

This app does its job of scanning film - color and BW negatives, as well as color positives. The quality isn’t the best. For example, if you have fine grain film, it will not look like beautiful fine grain, but that’s being picky. For the price of the scanner, it’s a really nifty thing to have and has been of much use to me in scanning BW film negatives.Most importantly I write this review to point out that if you have an iPhone Pro Max, you’d have to hold your phone well above the box to actually get a clear picture. That’s not great because it’s bound to compromise the clarity of your photos even more. So i’m hoping that this app will soon be updated to work with the Max iPhone series! Please, developers.

I started the Fall ‘19 semester needing a film scanner my photography 107 class: Introduction to Black and White Film photography. This app has not crashed on me yet. This app is free and easy to use. I get to preview the negatives and pre-determine what photos I want to submit for a project. I’m all about efficiency and getting the most out of each roll of film. I give this app a five star simply because it’s helping get through my class and picking out the best photos. Oh and the app has never crashed on me yet.

The app definitely gets the job done. I took a photo class two seperate semesters in college, and I like using this app to transfer the photos. However, I use the B&W option so I don’t know if it’s different for anything else, but everytime I use it, after so many uses, it crashes. It’s annoying to deal with. You can go back in the app and get another couple before it crashes again. You still get the pictures, a little blurred, but it still does the job which is convenient.
