Bug Fix from 3.0.3. The projects file now will keep your gels. If you updated from 3.0.2 to 3.0.4 you will not see the problem.

The blank gels can be deleted and replaced with your original intentions. We are very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Also runs on iPad, with rotation lock off.
There are over 82,000 elements of information concerning the 1600 gels. Most of them are now correct. One color is not. Bonus points to those who can find the incorrect color.

Vegasdp,
Essential Cinematography iPhone app
Thank you for the latest Gel Swatch iPhone app update.
The ability to use my iPhones camera or a calibrated photo to preview thousands of gel colors plus compare gels side by side over the image?
This update is a game changer for my location scouts, tech meetings and those quick “What gel looks good here?” moments.
I can’t wait to use it out in the field and on-set. It’s top of the stack now in my iPhones Cinematography Apps folder.
One suggestion on improving the app.
If the apps photo preview feature gave us the ability to selectively erase or paint on an area of the color gel overlay (for still photos only, not the live camera) this would really help in coming up with complex color combos. The ability to show Production Designers, Set Painters and Props people where a gel color wash will play on a live set would be incredible for an iPhone app.
Tiffen used to have 2 iPhone apps that allowed masking to a certain degree with their camera filters overlaid on top of still photos. They sold it off I believe and it’s now called “DFT” aka Digital Film Tools in the iPhone App Store. It still functions the same and I use it all the time.
I don’t know how complex app coding is but just a thought on taking the app to the next level.
Have a great New Year!

Fantastic App
Great tool if you take the time to set your screens brightness and color temperature this app renders color really well. Also has nice features to make your life easier.
atvpro2002,
Almost Perfect
Great app! I would love to be able to cross compare ANY 2 gels, not just what is comparable to the first selected gel.
Also once you add a gel to a project, you should be able to click on those gels and see the waveform and transmission %. Not just attached notes.
Fix those two things and you’ve got a 5 star app!

Thanks for the update!
Well, that took 5 years but I'm very grateful for the additions and improvements. Thanks!
Coeorsed,
Great App!
I use this App for almost every one of my productions, it's a very useful and powerful tool to have in your kit.

Great app
I’ve had this app for over a decade and it’s great. Solid.
tm204,
Its not just a gel book
I did not buy this app for a long time. It was intermission for a tech and I was out of R98 and needed the Gam or Lee equivalent. I bought the app. I have mixed feelings. It is very useful I found myself using it during tech often. It’s not just a gel book as others have claimed. It not only shows you similar gels but it shows the compliment and you can compare the wavelenghts of the gel and compliment.. The color wavelength data is a must, Rosco doesn’t include it in color on their swatches. I also like the cmy percentages, anyone dealing in color mixing or the EOS will love this feature. The problems I had with eairler versions are fixed or will be fixed in v1.4. Gels are easy to find and I find myself exploring new colors across manfacturers. It is now worth ten dollars.
jimbo45,
Invaluable!!!
I used the heck out of this app this past week. A touring company sent me their rider with 3 different brands of gel on their lighting sheets. I was able to quickly cross-reference each color and get the colors close enough to keep them happy. I had most of what they wanted but not quite the same brand. What they wanted in Rosco I had in Lee and what they wanted in Lee I had in Gam or Rosco. I don't have the budget (rather, a budget at all) to accomodate every touring group that comes here. This helped me do just that with what I had in my inventory. Thanks, guys, and I'll stop by your booth at USITT and thank you personally.
lordquibble,
Ok, but used to be better
I bought this app because my girlfriend had gotten it herself several months prior. When she got it an i believe when i first got it it had the ability to compare any 2 gels. but since then in one of the updates Wybron killed this functionality. now you can only compare what they deem "similar" or complementary. Frequently I need to see how 2 gels will react when mixed together, or more often i don't always have a gel that is "similar" (as they define it) so i need to compare a gel i do have with the target gel to see just how far i am. I am quite disappointed that this functionality was removed. What the app does still do it does well but i can't in good conscience recommend this to LD friends of mine as strongly as i once could. I don't see the benefit of removing functionality to replace it with a button that for me is essentially just an ad for another app i don't need or want.
Jason is taken?,
SO close to perfect
I find this app quite useful. The ability to see colors both similar and complementary to the selected color is great, and the full set of info on each color is appreciated. I am somewhat irritated by the order in which the Rosco colors appear (R111 appears after R11, R3405 appears after R34, none of the 300 series appears after their associated primary colors). Were it not for that ordering issue, I would have given a full 5 stars. I have 2 suggestions, both of which I would gladly pay considerably more for. First, add the ability to see a comparison of each color with a 3200 source and a 5600 source. Second, add the Vari*Lite colors to the selection.
