Great app! It is well designed and works perfectly. I use it often, especially with large format photography where I use it to determine which lens to set up. I've tried some others, but this one is perfect for me.

I bought this app a couple of months ago but received a refund due to an issue with my Pixel 6 Pro that only allows the use of the main camera, meaning some focal lengths are not correctly simulated. It's a pity because the app is well designed and I find the other tools, such as the depth of field calculater, very useful for my photography.

I was hopeful that I had found a viewfinder app where you could select between the phone's various cameras, as the app I usually use does not have this capability. However, although it's possible in this app, the frame lines do not change accordingly in relation to the selected phone cameras lens. The frame lines for the chosen focal length stay exactly the same no matter whether you are using the ultra-wide, wide-angle or telephoto phone lens. I hope this gets addressed in a future update.

The app is worth the money. It works well on my Samsung S22+. I like the ability to add custom formats (such as half frame 4x5) and to customize the lens list to what you own. The film list for reciprocity calculations is heavy on Ilford and no Kodak films - I'm hoping future updates fix that. Another suggestion would be to allow viewing scene in B&W. I switched my camera settins but it didn't show up in the app.

This is great! I like how it supports weirder formats like 6x17 or 5x7. It would be cool if I could add photos I've already taken in my stock camera app, and crop to different formats to see the differences. Also, I love how the images saved have the focal length information included, but it would be nice to have the option to turn that off if needed. But so far, very useful!

Really useful set of tools for analogue photography and developer seems really engaged and responsive. App getting better all the time...

I was about to give this app a one star as when I updated it first around, it was broken, but now, after updating it second time it works as it should, and I have to say it deserve a 4 star.

Brilliant! Finally a more than decent viewfinder app for Android. Possible to save "memos" if you're out and scouting. Some nice extra features as well, like "calculate bellow draw". Overall impressed and happy with the app :)
