## Review summary

Users like Film scanner Pro as a free, simple tool to quickly convert negatives into viewable photos and share them with others, reviving old film with their phone. However, across multiple reviews the app suffers from reliability and quality issues: exports are low‑resolution and not suitable for print; the inversion/contrast isn't a clean one‑to‑one invert and can clip shadows; saving often fails; the B/W workflow is not obvious and the UI relies on workarounds. Overall sentiment is mixed: easy to use and valuable, but reliability and results need improvement.

### Pros

- Free to use; few free alternatives for this purpose.
- Simple, user-friendly interface.
- Quick workflow to turn negatives into viewable photos that can be shared with family and friends.
- Helpful for reviving/viewing old negatives quickly on a phone.
- Fun and satisfying to see negatives become pictures with just your device.

### Cons

- Exported images are low-resolution/poor quality, making them unsuitable for printing.
- Inversion/contrast behavior is not a clean invert; shadows get clipped and adjustments often fail; some updates worsen black-and-white results.
- Saving/exporting images frequently fails (cannot save, or the app crashes on save).
- Lack of an obvious black-and-white toggle; the workflow is confusing and requires workarounds (relying on accessibility invert or external steps).
- Results often depend on lighting; consistent quality is not guaranteed.
