A camera UI that stays out of the shot.

Start quickly, choose a look, switch into manual control, and finish in Lab without jumping between disconnected tools.

  • One home screen that leads directly into camera, import, or development.
  • Preset-aware preview so the shot feels closer to the final image from the beginning.
  • Manual shutter, ISO, focus, white balance, and exposure adjustment without heavy visual noise.
  • Lab editing with staged tonal and color controls, batch workflows, and EDR or SDR export.

Presets Organise your favourite Presets. Apply directly in Camera - for pre-configured processing. You own the algorithm.

Design your algorithm. Your photos are yours.

Presets are your recipes for developing raw photos. Start from scratch, or edit pre-configured Club Presets.

  • Capture a photo, then open it in Lab.
  • Edit it, either with the controls directly, by applying a Club Preset, or by using Sensei - your Preset barista.
  • Save your edts as a new Preset. Name it, give it a colour.
  • Use your new Preset directly in Camera. Perfect edits, your way, on every shutter press.
Tip Hold down TEST in Camera to see a fully-edited preview capture - directly in the viewfinder.

What photographers notice first.

The best feedback repeatedly comes back to the same things: control, speed, and the feeling that the iPhone camera is finally doing what they want.

“By far the best of any I’ve tried.”

A DSLR user described LUMA as the first iPhone camera app that made them want to take phone photography seriously.

App Store review, October 30, 2025

“The best editing and shooting app on the App Store right now.”

Another reviewer called out the combination of sleek design, RAW editing, and on-the-go workflow as better and easier than Lightroom on mobile.

App Store review, October 22, 2025

“My go-to for iPhone photography.”

Reviewers keep coming back to the same point: LUMA changes how they shoot because it finally gives the camera enough control to matter.

App Store review, November 2, 2025

There is more to the story.

We take pride in our work - LUMA is here to stay.
