So far so good. Initially I d/l the free version but have now upgraded to the pro version. I have been using a different app before but the extra functions and features, such a having favourites and calculations for stacking filters and the useful tutorials makes this a good buy. There are reviews that talk about the timer stopping when the app is in the background, this no longer happens so ignore those older reviews

Just downloaded the app. Looks good and easy to use. A good improvement would be to retain the last settings instead of going back to the default if you want to try a different filter or speed. Now updated, and keeps the last settings to adjust for the next shot 🙂. Now 5 star rating 🙂

Best free ND app I've used. Ive tried several. Easy to use and straight forward. Easy to add / remove filters for when stacking. Wish it had the option to show the time in total seconds, instead of minutes and seconds so it would align to the bulb mode.
