Beyond metering, it delivers a complete manual photography toolkit: 9 calculators (DOF, Reciprocity for long exposures, EV/LV converter, White Balance, Bellows Factor, Flash GN, Sunny 16, EXIF Reader, Angle of View) plus a Golden Hour calculator. It supports custom ISO/shutter/f-stop, live histogram, ND displays, long-exposure timer, and screen lock. Save and organize readings with GPS coordinates and hardware profiles, and it works offline with 50+ languages on any manual camera.

User Reviews

Light Meter - Lite is praised for its simple UI and useful WB/metering tools, with broad device compatibility. Recurring issues include stability problems (crashes during metering), accuracy variations across devices, and upgrade frustrations (double billing, ads, and locked features). Some users also want better offline functionality and clearer tutorials.

Pros

Simple, clean UI and easy to use.
Useful white balance/color temperature measurement (WB tool).
Valuable metering features for film photography (area-based metering, long exposures).
Works on older devices/phones and across various cameras.
Generally reliable and feature-rich when not crashing.

Cons

Frequent crashes/freezes, especially in camera metering mode or when zooming.
Metering can be inaccurate on some devices, leading to overexposure (e.g., Pixel, Galaxy devices).
Upgrade/payment issues: double charges, locked features, and ads after purchase.
Some features require internet connection, reducing offline usability.
Occasional conflicts with the camera app, causing force quits or instability.

Recent reviews

Checked the readings vs. Minolta Auto Meter IV F ($300 meter), and while I'd never expect an app to be as accurate as a professional meter, the readings I got weren't even close. If I went by this app's readings my photos would be tremendously overexposed. Update: Just to be sure, I double checked readings from a TTL camera meter. Results from the camera meter and Minolta meter were virtually identical. This light meter app was way way off.

it worked great for quite a while, but it just stopped taking readings today. I'm going to delete and readd to see if that helps, but it quit while I was on a shoot, so I just wanted to share my experience. Note: after update I'm still having the same problems. It froze while I was out shooting film, which shortened my day.
