App Profile: Film scanner Pro

A little misleading. You open the app and take a picture of the film negative, then the app shows you a reversed image. Quicker to go to Settings/General/Accessibility/Display Accommodations/and turn on Invert colors. That way you get a real time view of the negative with no taking pictures.

I appreciate the tool for existing first and foremost, hence 5 stars. The FilmLab app is great, very limited, but it scans my negatives fantastically. The only issues, I can’t import photos to invert, so I downloaded this app that I’m reviewing, so I could invert scans that I transferred from my camera to my phone via WiFi transfer in the hopes of a higher quality scan. So far the 5 negatives I’ve imported are a deep Cyan color and no matter how much I play with the sliders, it does no good. The options and functions of the slide editors need improvement, the built in inverting format needs tweaking. The usability of the app itself is great. Very simple. If only the actual color science was good, this would be my favorite app ever.

Just like me if you found some Photo Negatives at home and decided to use your iPhone which photos are in there, then this app can help. I tried using multiple apps over the AppStore and many good ones required paid membership and still their quality was poor. This app is great considering the fact that it is free. For background source, I am using another iPhone. Open up a picture with completely white background. Put the negative on the screen and take pic with this app. Then convert to see the magic. Best wishes.
