For cameras and mags with a counter that's missing, broken or hard to read. Press RUN and STOP for each take and get the feet shot, the running total, and the time left on the roll.
Free. No account. Works offline on any phone.
Made by a camera assistant, for the people that shoot on film.
Each take keeps the speed it was shot at. Go from 24 to 36 fps and the takes already shot stay exactly as they were.
Feet and time remaining at the current speed. It turns amber when you're low and flags Roll Out when you're past the end.
Footage shot rounds up and footage left rounds down, so it never shows more film than you have. Takes always add up to the roll total.
Choose a common frame rate or add your own, including high-speed rates like 2,500 fps. Load short ends of any length, and save the speeds and short ends you use often.
File finished rolls under a project and look back at every take. Or skip projects and use it as a quick calculator.
Export a project as a clean PDF report or a CSV for spreadsheets, with every roll and take. Save it to Files or send it to production.
Send a roll's takes and dial readings to Messages, Notes or email, ready to copy onto a lab report or into CamLog.
Runs fully offline once it's on your home screen. Everything stays on your phone. No account and nothing to sign into.
Your rolls live only on your phone. Save every project to one backup file and restore it on a new phone. Restoring never deletes anything.
Pick the format, frame rate and roll length, including the short end you just loaded.
Tap RUN when the camera rolls and STOP when it cuts. Each take is logged with its own speed and footage.
Copy each take's footage onto your camera report. Tap reload to file the roll and start the next one.
Yes. No account, no ads and nothing to buy.
Yes. Open it once with a connection and add it to your home screen. After that it runs fully offline, on set, in a truck or on a mountain.
Yes, and earlier takes are never recalculated. Each take keeps the speed it was shot at, so a roll shot partly at 24 fps and partly at 36 fps adds up correctly.
It counts from the moment you press RUN to the moment you press STOP, so it's as accurate as your timing. It rounds the way a counter does: footage shot rounds up and footage left rounds down. When the camera has a working counter, trust the camera.
FilmCounter keeps counting past the roll length and shows how far over you are, so a 300' short end that is really 320' is still counted correctly.
At 24 fps, 35mm 4-perf runs 90 ft a minute, so a 400' roll lasts 4:26 and a 1000' roll 11:06. 16mm runs 36 ft a minute, so a 400' roll lasts 11:06. See the running time chart for every gauge and speed.
Only on your device. Nothing is uploaded or synced and there's no account, so there's no copy anywhere else and no way to recover rolls from a lost or reset phone.
Open Project and tap Back up or restore all projects. It saves every project, roll and preset to one file you can keep in Files, iCloud Drive or email to yourself. Restoring it on any device adds what's missing and never deletes anything.
Free for solo use, with team sync when you need it.
