Description
The best B&W photo editor on the App Store, featured by Apple as a top and trending photo app. Add stunning Black and White filters & effects to your photos with simple and efficient controls.
“Tried the B&W filters and found it amazing. Unlike the rough filters by some other apps, this one is really stunning and can do lots of different styles. I really like it. Minimalism system is a plus too.” – Elizabeth C, Carbon customer
Carbon is the ultimate addition to your B&W photography arsenal. This uncluttered photo editor app provides stunning monochrome filters that will take your work to the next level.
Apply over 50 black and white filters to add elegant, unique touches to your photos. Use B&W presets to bring out variations in lighting and skin tone with a single tap and get professional quality black & white effects instantly.
Add photo textures, like grunge, grain and dust textures to get the perfect photo effects. Create classy and artistic photos quickly, without needing technical experience and multiple sliders or editing tools.
When your photo is finished, you can add hashtags and share your pictures with ease.
Developed in partnership with a collective of professional photographers, Carbon's minimal feature set allows you to hone in on what is most important in the world of black and white.
"When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. When you photograph people in black and white, you photograph their souls." – Anon

Ratings and Reviews
Love this app!
I have used this app for a long time and loved all it has to offer, it’s so much more than just the black and white!! The amount of filters and the fact you can adjust their opacity is terrific. With textures and overlays it’s well worth buying all the options. I love the borders feature and how easily you can customise a border. Woke up to an update yesterday with the bonus of a new Canvas feature, which I believe is in testing mode at the moment - the great news is it works and is terrific! I post photos to Instagram and if it is not a square shot I like to put it on a background canvas and this new update allows you to create that in a huge array of colours and with the option to give a 3D effect. Love it!!!
Simplistic and pushy marketing
I’m a retired professional with decades of experience. Carbon has a glorious UI. Very seductive. I’ve grown lazy and the idea of using presets as a jumping of point on IOS is attractive. Rather like Nik Collection Silver Efex Pro……an idea and then change it and turn it into your own creation.
Hard to know with Carbon…..looks like yet another press the button and apply someone else’s work to yours. Hard to tell with Carbon with it’s intrusive aggressive marketing. Doesn't seem to be any serious editing capability. Too hard to work past all the self congratulatory promos.
I’d pay serious money for a decent app , but I can get far better results from Snapseed, Lightroom and a few other IOS apps.
Five stars for slick high pressure marketing. Two stars because I’m in a good mood.
Marketed differently, and with editing capability, this may be really good. As it is:”all that glitters us not gold”. Now, where is that delete app button.
5 Star App.
I am an avid image maker. Over the years, I have used many editing apps to tweak my photos. Without a doubt, “Carbon” is the only photographic editing app that I would fully endorse as the number one app when it comes to my monochrome images. With so many adjustment capabilities to choose from, why would I not be enthusiastically endorsing this 5 star app?
