Massive Dev Chart Timer

In a recent update, when using the app in my dark room to develop sheet film, when I select, dark mode, there is still a bright white dynamic island where the mode selector is, contributing significant light pollution into my space. I’ve had to tape it off with black tape to make it usable. Why did you implement this? Is it a bug?!

In the darkroom, I rely on the ability to turn the screen of my iPhone to dark mode when using this app to time film development (sheet film, in trays). But in a recent update, there is now a large white “Dynamic Island” where the mode buttons are that cannot be turned dark, so there’s significant light pollution in my workspace when developing film, and I have to put black tape over that part of the screen!! WHY did you implement this?? Is it a bug or a “feature”??!

Timer works fine, that’s the important part. But the UX around the whole app is just bad. It hard to scan the list in My Times (why no search?), can’t bulk delete, can’t sort or group. No separate utilities like the volume mixer. Please take some time to improve the app, there’s so much potential here.

I don’t know what the bad reviews are about. Honestly, this app has met my every need. I prefer that recipes are pre-programmed instead of having to search randomly for experimental recipes in the other app.

I paid for this because it had dilutions for HC110. It is now removed. If you don’t put the feature back in you owe people a refund.

Only black and white film

Dilutions used to be more clear and simple to pull up. The latest update is hopefully just a mistake as it now forces you to manually add them yourself to each mix.

Dear App Developer, it would be fantastic if we could create our own timer instead of being limited to a set of developers based on the film I choose and a general configuration based on my preferences. However, this app is only for black-and-white film stock development, and doesn't help with color film (C41, E6, ECN2 and other) development. Regrettably, I wouldn’t recommend this app to anyone due to it's limitations. In this app, you can only make minor adjustments to saved “favorite” processes, which is practically useless for many seeking to develope at home. I would like to see a developm

Great App, Used it for years

And they say temperature extrapolation data is available, but how do you get to it? Great to have the massive chart in digital form, but for $8.99, the app is underbaked.

I’m a commercial photographer who is returning to film for the fun of it. This app takes all the pain and guesswork out of black and white negative development. Hats off and wallets open for the brilliant minds and hard work that made this app a reality!

Lacking several film stocks, doesn’t seem to be a way to add them. Rigid interface, no ability to change or alter development steps or they’re times. Just a bundle of preset timers for $8 was a mistake. Just use the online chart and your clock app, save your money!

The online version of the Massive Dev Chart is very helpful, and I refer to it regularly, so I thought this app would be just as good. Maybe I’ve missed it somewhere in the settings, but I don’t see the option of setting the agitation to “continuous” like you can on the website. The instructions say you can modify your agitation preferences, but none of the options they provide are for “continuous”. Of course I can just deduct 15% from the normal times to achieve this using my free calculator app. But I paid $9 for this app to do that.

The app "crashes" (actually just went to a white screen and then back to the main menu, I never got the iOS crash message) occasionally. The first time this happened during fixing which isn't a big deal, but the second time was during dev and I lost the time, so my final development was off.

Amazing app. Not only does it have all of the dev chart info... you can edit your own times as well. Amazing.

I’ve been using the Massive Dev Chart for over a year. It has worked brilliantly for me. I’m developing mostly Kodak Tmax and Tri-X, but I have also used it to develop Fujifilm Acros I. Just a well thought out easy to use app.

I’ve been using it for years on an old iPad, but when I upgraded to a brand new iPad and loaded the app it crashes EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. It’s unusable. I’ve tried reloading the app 6 times. Still crashes. There is nothing online about this problem other than: “reload the app”. Now I need to keep the old iPad to run just one app - Massive Dev. That’s F’d up.

This has pretty much every type of film/developer I use. It’s an amazing app that makes developing super easy and it allows you to customize and make adjustments as needed. It would be amazing for them to include color film options, especially since c-41 kits are becoming more popular and obtainable for at home developing.

Can't give "My times" steps meaningful titles - if your work flow deviates at all, it can't be saved in a useful way. Notes don't word wrap so you can see them. An app this mature should at least be aware of new sentences - auto capitalization is built in to the OS. I do enough traditional processing to probably keep it but pretty sad for 9 bucks.

No film or developer combos like on the iPhone app. Safelight mode doesn't work on the iPad, big WHITE banner that displays template name over the "safelight" mode display, which makes "safelight" mode is worthless. Great app on Android/iPhone but extremely disappointing on iPad.

Love the app! BUT. Please fix the home screen line (located at the bottom of the screen on iPhone XS) while in darkroom mode. It is emitting a bright light during development. I’m having to duct tape over it at the moment. Thank you!!!!

So I bought this to develop my first roll of Ilford HP5+ and while it was super helpful I had to write a couple notes to myself where I altered your events such as the hypo clear step. Could you please let us edit the titles or even let us add our own operations?

No where does it state its black and white only. Completely useless to me.

I’ve been using this app for quite some time, and must say it is very useful when I develop black and white film, and I rather like it. However the latest upgrade broke on my iPhone 4S despite the fact that the phone is running iOS 9.3.5, which the app is supposed to run on. The problem is that UI elements tend to overlap on the screen, making some parameters impossible to change. (Example: trying to turn on time-temperature conversions changes the temperature setting! I tried using a stylus instead of my finger but it didn’t do any good.) The app works fine on my iPhone 6S+, but as that is my

Awesome and invaluable. I wished the alarms rang when I'm on another app like YouTube though...

I’ve been using this app for years. This is THE BEST app out there if you’re going to be working in the darkroom. Couldn’t recommend this app more.

This app has been great! It takes all the documentation that used to be printed and bundles it all up into a nice app. I've only been developing for a couple years but this app has been a great tool for me. I still have my binder of documentation from the vendors I use, but for quick references and timer, it's great!!! The only thing I wish was on the app, was pull times. I know everyone pushes but it be nice to have pull times as well.

Works great, conversion of time/temp is great. Good list of films and developers. Able to edit to suit your taste

I would not have gotten this unless I got an iTunes gift card. Luckily I did. This app is imperative to anyone that develops at home. They give you every development time for every film and developer. Also, if you have experimented in the past and changed Dev times a little, you can edit each time as well. Absolutely amazing app

Doesn't have any of the films I use, glad I spent $9 on this...
