Terms

Lightmeter is an iOS app published by Aakash Goel. These terms cover the app, its widgets, and this website at shotonlightmeter.com. By using either, you agree to them.

We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use Lightmeter on Apple devices you own or control, under the App Store terms. You may not reverse-engineer, resell, or redistribute the app or its film looks.

The looks in Lightmeter are our own recipes, modelled on how analog film responds to light. They are not products of, licensed by, or affiliated with any film manufacturer. Names of real stocks, where they appear in the app, are descriptive references to the emulsions those recipes are modelled on.

What you shoot is yours. Frames stay on your iPhone. We do not host, licence, or claim your pictures. You are responsible for how you use them, including any people in them.

Lightmeter ships on the App Store. Anything you receive through TestFlight instead is pre-release software: features can change or disappear, looks can be retuned, and a build can break or stop working. Each TestFlight build expires. Apple distributes those under Apple's TestFlight terms; leave any time from the TestFlight app.

Do not rely on a pre-release build for work you cannot afford to lose. Keep anything that matters in your Photos library, where it stays if the app goes.

Some features — raw capture, borders, the Plus film stocks and the alternate app icon — are part of Lightmeter Plus. Plus is sold as a monthly or yearly subscription, or once outright; what a purchase covers is shown on the purchase screen before you buy.

Apple sells it, takes the payment and holds the receipt. Subscriptions renew until you cancel, and cancelling is done in your Apple Account subscription settings, not here — deleting the app does not cancel one. Refunds are Apple's to give; ask Apple, and write to us if something is wrong and we will help where we can.

Lightmeter is provided as-is. A meter reading, a film look, or a geotag can be wrong. We are not liable for missed shots, lost photos, or anything you do with the app. If the law where you live does not allow this limit, it applies only as far as that law allows.

We may update the app and these terms. The date at the top of this page is the current version. If you keep using Lightmeter after a change, you accept it.
