After the reciprocity math, it stays with you until that frame is done. TimerGlass 2.0.
TimerGlass is the field companion for film photographers — reciprocity, pinhole geometry, exposure estimation, and a beautiful timer, all in one quietly designed app.
WHAT IT DOES
• Reciprocity failure correction for 100+ film stocks (Ilford, Kodak, Fuji, Foma, Rollei, ADOX, CineStill, Lomography and more) — built from manufacturer data sheets.
• ND filter stack and bellows extension compensation are folded into the same calculation.
• Pinhole camera tool — Lord Rayleigh's optimal aperture, effective f-number, equivalent angle of view by film format, and Sunny-16 exposure estimation that flows straight into the timer.
• Long-exposure timer with Live Activity and Dynamic Island, accurate even when your phone is locked.
• Long-exposure side-effects advice — pull-development guidance for B&W, color-shift tips for negative and slide film, contextual to your actual exposure time.
• History of recent exposures with all the parameters you used.
• Custom film stocks — define your own with power-law or lookup-table reciprocity curves.
DESIGNED FOR
Large-format and pinhole photographers who do long exposures often, 35mm and medium-format shooters chasing dusk and night scenes, and anyone tired of squinting at a film data sheet by torchlight.

What's New in 2.0
It used to stop once it knew how long to leave the shutter open. This time, after the reciprocity math, it stays with you until that frame is done.
While the shutter is open, you can see how long it's been and when to close. Tap the Lock Screen and you're back on the frame you're shooting. If it runs past midnight, the date is there too.
Pinhole works the same way: put in the meter's aperture, shutter and ISO, and you get how long to leave it open.
Not sure which film? Compare a few under the same meter reading. Bracketing? Each frame gets its own reciprocity correction — finish one, then start the next. You can remember the camera and lens; film and metering wait for the day.
Before you go out, jot down what you want to shoot tonight. When you're back, you'll see what got finished and what you stopped. Switch phones, and it all comes with you.
