User Reviews

Film Rolls is loved for its simple logging of film-shot data, plus GPS tagging and a persistent multi-camera database. It supports easy export/desktop workflow, making it a strong notebook replacement. However, recurring issues include iOS compatibility/maintenance problems, difficulties deleting old logs, limited export formats (XML vs CSV), and requests for more customization (presets, frame numbering, focal length).

Pros

Simple, clean, and easy-to-use UI for logging shot settings.
Powerful data model that can store multiple cameras, lenses, and accessories with per-shot details (ISO, metering) and a quick-fill feature.
GPS/location tagging for each shot helps recall where photos were taken.
Records are persistent and uncluttered, acting as an effective notebook replacement as data grows.
Supports export/desktop workflow and data transfer for archival or further processing (XML export mentioned, aiding integration into existing workflows).

Cons

Compatibility and maintenance issues: requires ongoing updates and can fail to launch on newer iOS versions, leading to access problems.
Inability to delete logs/rolls reliably, causing clutter and unusable data as rolls accumulate.
Limited export options: XML does not read as easily as CSV, with many users requesting CSV or per-roll exports and cloud sharing support.
Customization gaps: insufficient preset f-stops/shutter speeds, and need for more flexible frame numbering (e.g., start at 0) and focal length field.

Unfortunately has been without an update and no longer launches using iOS 14.6-14.8

I’ve been using this app for over a year and it has been the best note taking app I have found. That said, it needs an update. Unfortunately it does not run under iOS 14.6 and after upgrading my phone I can no longer access my notes. Additionally as a large format photographer I often use f-stops and shutter speeds that require “custom” entry. It would be much easier to use if I could easily dial in f-stops up to 64 and shutter speeds up to 30 seconds.
