Kodak Mobile Film Scanner Hack 1.35 + Redeem Codes

The app definitely gets the job done. I took a photo class two seperate semesters in college, and I like using this app to transfer the photos. However, I use the B&W option so I don’t know if it’s different for anything else, but everytime I use it, after so many uses, it crashes. It’s annoying to deal with. You can go back in the app and get another couple before it crashes again. You still get the pictures, a little blurred, but it still does the job which is convenient.

This app does its job of scanning film - color and BW negatives, as well as color positives. The quality isn’t the best. For example, if you have fine grain film, it will not look like beautiful fine grain, but that’s being picky. For the price of the scanner, it’s a really nifty thing to have and has been of much use to me in scanning BW film negatives.

Most importantly I write this review to point out that if you have an iPhone Pro Max, you’d have to hold your phone well above the box to actually get a clear picture. That’s not great because it’s bound to compromise the clarity of your photos even more. So i’m hoping that this app will soon be updated to work with the Max iPhone series! Please, developers.

I started the Fall ‘19 semester needing a film scanner my photography 107 class: Introduction to Black and White Film photography. This app has not crashed on me yet. This app is free and easy to use. I get to preview the negatives and pre-determine what photos I want to submit for a project. I’m all about efficiency and getting the most out of each roll of film. I give this app a five star simply because it’s helping get through my class and picking out the best photos. Oh and the app has never crashed on me yet.

I’m using the iPhone 11 Pro Max and although the app is great for quickly seeing my negatives after developing, it’s terrible with color rendition. The color red is so over saturated that it looks like a highlighter color. Lowering the saturation doesn’t even help. Other colors aren’t as bad though.

At the end of the day, the $25 scanner and free app is hands down the best/cheapest way to preview your negatives without having to use a proper scanner that takes 30 seconds-3 minutes per frame.

Pros: The application is very simple and I am able to get the photos extracted from the negative easily. I really like the colors and the contrast it captures.
The cons: sometimes the app will try to fix the Color of the photo making it look worse and the resolution it captures is low making it look grainy when printed or zoomed in. (I have compared them to the ones I’ve already developed from the supermarket a long time ago)

Normally, this app is great and has been helpful for me with scanning all the family negatives and slides that I inherited from my grandmother, however not being able to edit the photos in-app since the recent update has been frustrating. I’m able to do this on my phone after saving each scan however if half of the app no longer works it slows down the process quite a bit. Hoping this is fixed soon.

Really is better than the other slide/negative film apps out there but needs bugs squashed. Lets you use all your lenses but the ultra wide on 13 pro is crashing the app for me which would make the best photo. Also needs to reward those early adopters that brought the app instead of forcing subscription.

The mobile scanner is a clever design. I’m using it with my iPhone to digitize color slides. Using the app, I got terrible (fuzzy) images. If I simply use my phone’s camera, I get great results. I have to crop and edit later with either my phone’s image editor or Photoshop (but even app-generated photos require editing).
TIP: remove your phone from any case or holder, as those things affect the focal distance.

I can’t get a clear scan using my iPhone 12 Pro. It seems like the scanner would work better with a iPhone that has one camera. Tried to scan with just my camera app and not the Kodak app and still doesn’t work very well. Bought the kit on a whim to see if it was useful. Probably need to buy a normal slide scanner for better results.

This app/product was amazing the first couple of years I used it. Recently found some more old family film negatives that I was SO excited to explore. Only to find out that this app and product is completely non functional now because it will not focus! Beyond disappointed and in disbelief that the app hasn’t been updated to work with modern cameras.
