Lab Slip is a notebook for your film camera. Tap once as you take each photo and it records the camera, lens, aperture, shutter speed, time and place. When your scans come back from the lab, Lab Slip matches them to your frames and writes those details into them.
Free to start. Full Bag is a one-time purchase, never a subscription.
iPhone, iPad, Mac and Apple Watch.
Six frames, one roll. Lab Slip follows each roll from your camera bag to the lab and back, so every scan ends up carrying the story of how it was made.
Add your cameras and lenses once. Load a roll in two taps from a list of popular film stocks, push or pull included.
One tap logs the camera, lens, aperture, shutter, time and place. Lock a dial and it carries to the next frame. Add a note or a reference photo.
Mark the roll as at the lab, with the lab's name, your order number and when it's due back.
Pick them from Photos or Files, or drop a whole folder on the Mac. Your originals are read in place and never changed.
Lab Slip pairs scans with frames in order. Drag to fix a pair, mark the leader as “not a frame”, reverse, or start from a later frame.
Save copies with every detail written in: to a folder, or into Photos in an album named after the roll.
For the moment you press the shutter, and the evening the scans arrive.
The capture screen lives in your pocket: swipe between cameras, tap to log, and watch the frame counter tick down.
Review a roll on the map, tidy up frames, and match scans with room to drag them around.
Drop the lab's folder straight onto the window and export tagged copies where your editing happens.
Leave the phone in the bag. Log from your wrist and dial in exposure with the Digital Crown.
Try everything that matters with one camera, including matching your first roll of scans. When you want more, Full Bag is a single purchase of US$5.99 (A$9.99).

help@labslip.appNo. Scans are read in place and Lab Slip writes new copies, either to a folder you choose (adding “ 2” to a name rather than overwriting) or into Photos as new photos.
JPEG and TIFF keep their image data exactly as the lab delivered it, with only the metadata changed. HEIC has to be re-encoded, so Lab Slip warns you first, does it at maximum quality, and lets you leave HEIC files out. Other formats are skipped.
Logging never waits for a location. The frame is saved straight away and the location is added as soon as it's found. You can also set or fix a frame's location later.
Drag a scan onto the right frame (dropping on a matched frame swaps them), mark leaders and blanks as “not a frame”, reverse the order, or set which frame the first scan is. Everything re-matches as you go.
