Description

The best B&W photo editor on the App Store, featured by Apple as a top and trending photo app. Add stunning Black and White filters & effects to your photos with simple and efficient controls.

“Tried the B&W filters and found it amazing. Unlike the rough filters by some other apps, this one is really stunning and can do lots of different styles. I really like it. Minimalism system is a plus too.” – Elizabeth C, Carbon customer

Carbon is the ultimate addition to your B&W photography arsenal. This uncluttered photo editor app provides stunning monochrome filters that will take your work to the next level.

Apply over 50 black and white filters to add elegant, unique touches to your photos. Use B&W presets to bring out variations in lighting and skin tone with a single tap and get professional quality black & white effects instantly.

Add photo textures, like grunge, grain and dust textures to get the perfect photo effects. Create classy and artistic photos quickly, without needing technical experience and multiple sliders or editing tools.

When your photo is finished, you can add hashtags and share your pictures with ease.

Developed in partnership with a collective of professional photographers, Carbon's minimal feature set allows you to hone in on what is most important in the world of black and white.

"When you photograph people in color, you photograph their clothes. When you photograph people in black and white, you photograph their souls." – Anon

Great app

gezznz on

Have had fantastic results with carbon!

Great app for creating B&W images that really pop!

Bali grab scam on

Seems to be a very easy app to use. I love so many of the presets. What I like about it, is that after I save the photo that I have edited, it looks the same when I review it up the picture gallery. Unlike others

Best frames

Pcarlaw on

I use this app all the time to add a frame and canvas. Love it!

Disappointed

Ziming Leon Li on

It’s a good app in use with no doubt, but it was fraudulent. I purchased it when 75% off which was should $17.99,but my bill showed $75.85 dollars?? This is unacceptable.

Great Value - Sleek Interface

Vern From NYC on

This app is great for mobile editing. It’s easy to use and provides some great additional social media features, such as easy to use popular hashtags. The filters are really varied- even across the main black and white selection. Once you’ve acquired the relatively inexpensive in-app purchases, you’ll never need another set of black and white filters. The retro filters are very Instagrammy - nothing wrong with that- but a lot of folks will love that as an add-on. First and foremost this is a really easy to use and carefully curated set of black and white filters.

Expensive, and full of shady up-selling

Ivanapinyon on

Sorry, but the constant interruptive and urgent Up-selling is not just annoying, it borders on "dark design". Considering the price of outstanding apps like Darkroom, this is not well priced. The app might look slick, but the filters are nothing you can't find in apps that cost a fraction of the price. Unless the half priced discount for full access is dodgy psychological marketing, then you can buy the professional class Affinity apps for less than "full access". A shame really, the app looked promising.

Neat app
