Film Logbook is a focused and reliable tool for keeping your film photography organized. Track every roll, every frame, and every setting so you always know what you shot and how you shot it.
Whether you are documenting a long-term project, experimenting with exposure, or managing multiple cameras and film stocks, Film Logbook gives you a clear and structured workflow that fits naturally into the way you shoot analog.
Use it while shooting to record the details that matter, and review your notes later when developing, scanning, or editing. No more guessing which film was loaded, what settings you used, or how a shot was composed.
Main Features

• Mark double exposures and link related frames

Why Film Photographers Choose Film Logbook
• A consistent and reliable place to document every roll
• A practical companion for learning exposure and refining technique
• Clear structure that helps you understand your shooting habits
• No subscription required and no unnecessary complexity
• Actively developed with a focus on stability and real-world use
Film Logbook is built for photographers who want a dependable tool to support their analog workflow from the first frame to the last. Simple, precise, and designed for long-term use.
This is a nice app for recording information about 35 mm film roles. The only thing that I would like to see is the location information be included in the PDF (its in the JASON file), and perhaps the reference image be included somewhere, perhaps as a separate file associated with the PDF or JASON.
Must have for film photographers

Great little app to log each if your shots. I love that i can export the log to a PDF where i can print it and store with my negatives. I just wish there was an option for B&W preview

Crashes a lot and "Camera" selection disappears

I honestly love all the features this app has to offer. Very impressed with the design! However I kept running into different bugs that were constantly crashing the app or making selection fields disappear even after I reinstalled the app.I wish the app was more stable, but I'll be using Datafilm for now and check back another time for future versions.
