Frames for macOS Launch

The long-awaited macOS companion app launches, bringing seamless metadata reintegration into scanned film images. Import your film roll data from iOS and embed EXIF metadata into JPEG files.

Metadata Reintegration for Scanned Film

Frames for macOS solves the most requested feature from the film photography community: reintegrating metadata into scanned images. Import your .frames files from iOS, drag in your scanned JPEG images, and the app matches frames to photos. Your exposure settings, camera data, lens information, film stocks, and shooting notes are embedded as EXIF metadata that works seamlessly with Lightroom, Capture One, and Apple Photos.

Your film roll data transfers seamlessly from field logging on iOS to final archival on macOS.
