With an increased demand for screen-free, analogue hobbies over digital consumption, film photography feels more relevant than ever in 2026. Read on to discover how shooting film offers a slower, more mindful, more intentional way to create images - and staying present in moments that truly matter.
Our Android app has moved!
By Paul McKay
We have a new Android app, with bug fixes and small feature upgrades versus previous.
The Apple app is the same - so only those of you who use our Android mobile app to search and search for films and developing will be affected.
If this is you:
- Log out and delete the old app on your phone
- Head here to download the new one
- When it's loaded - open and log in with your AW username and password
- That's it!
You'll be able to see your past orders and WonderPoints, as well as search for new films, cameras - and order developing at an ongoing discount vs the website.
Wonderful!!
