Every photo, developed.
Automono develops a black and white print of every iPhone photo, automatically, without changing how you shoot.
About Automono
Automono is a darkroom for the iPhone. There's no new camera to learn: you keep shooting with the built-in Camera app, and Automono develops a black and white print of each photo, then files it beside the untouched color original. Prints are made from the best data the iPhone saved, ProRAW included, as full-resolution 10-bit files that keep the original's date and place. Choose from four film stocks, Soft 50, Platinum 100, Classic 125 and Noir 400, and set the grain from clean to heavy. A one-minute Shortcuts automation makes it run in the background. Everything happens on the device. No account, no uploads. Free.
