Ratings and reviews

Really wonderful new app to apply interesting film effects to pictures, can't believe it's actually free and open source. I do have some issues with the preview image flickering, and it crashes when trying to download the LUTs (?) but they work from the cloud so I guess it's not a major issue. Looking forward to playing with this some more in the near future.

Great app! One thing I hope can be made better is the categorization of the different LUTs based on the brand and ISO stop. Right now selecting and going through the different LUTs feels very all over the place. And the image window feels a bit too small to accurately see the changes made to the photo.

It's OK and great that it's free and open source but the interface needs a lot of work. For a start, you can't preview the film looks "live". You have to select each one from a long list via a tiny preview thumbnail of a cat's head and then apply it. Nor can you zoom your photo once a film look is applied, so you have to judge its effect from a tiny version of your whole image before deciding to save or undo. Also no way to quickly toggle preview/original to evaluate the proposed changes.

What's new

This update contains highly requested features:
- Film previews: Now you can preview films for your selected image without needing to apply them!
- Improved UI: Choosing a Film is much easier now, as they're categorized and more accessible.
- Download Films: Film Simulator now supports downloading all Films at once so you can use the app completely offline with previews.
