What’s New
Version 2.0.4
This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.
Photo saving failure was showing an unhelpful "Data unavailable" error when the user didn't grant the app access to the Photo Library.
Now the app will present a detailed message about how to enable the required permissions to be able to save photos.
Ratings and Reviews
Updated review
I hadn’t used this for some time but then found it was crashing on launch under iOS 14 - but after reply from the dev I tried deleting and reinstalling which fixed it. If you want to see value this is super useful.
Developer Response ,
The app is still maintained, and based on the feedback I have been receiving, it has many happy active users. It hasn't been updated for a long time since it still works with new iOS releases, including iOS 14 which I have on my device and I haven't run into any issues. I am sorry to hear that it crashes for you. Could you provide some more details to help troubleshoot it, e.g. is it crashing on the very first launch after installing? You contact me through the app support link in the AppStore or directly through https://robertjakubowski.me/apps/see-value-support/.
Superb
As a designer, one of the best way of checking luminosity is to view in greyscale. For only a buck, this app imports a photo, views it as greys and then saves it out. Wonderful time-saver. Five stars if the controls were made simpler and easier to see.
Brilliant for painting
Only just found this app, out of desperation! Always struggled with tone and value when painting and this has transformed everything for me
