What's New

Non-destructive editing by design

Keep the original while you edit. Every adjustment is reversible, and every step is saved in your edit history. Try a preset, then copy only the adjustments you want across the rest of the photos or videos. Until you export, Apple Photos, the share sheet, and your other devices still show the original. Choose Save to update that photo, or Save Copy to add a separate image.

Photo and video in one flow

One workflow for stills and video. There is no separate library and no import. Work with Portrait, RAW, ProRAW, slow motion, 4K, and even 8K video using the same tools, from color and curves to masks and presets. A grade that holds on a paused frame can fall apart once the shot moves, so adjust exposure, tones, and detail while the clip plays.

Take every edit further with Darkroom+

AI masks, cinematic color, and analog glow — on photos and video. Try every tool free. Darkroom+ is only required when you export.

4,050 Free Community Presets

Free looks from photographers worldwide. Start from one, then change the color, crop, or grain until it fits the photo.

Press and App Store reviews

Every tool to find a look.

Presets, grain, and frames to set a mood. RAW, crop, tone, and batch to finish the picture — all included.

  • Custom Presets — Save a look once for photos and video. It syncs to iPhone, iPad, and Mac.

  • Grain — Film texture that scales — analog grain, not noise.

  • Color Frames — A frame from the photo itself, or a Stories crop in a tap.

  • Exposure and Tone — Recover highlights and shadows. Set black and white point.

  • Clarity — Sharpen texture or smooth skin, without a crunchy halo.

  • Crop and Perspective — Straighten, reframe, and fix geometry in one place.

  • RAW and ProRAW — RAW from 600+ cameras, plus iPhone ProRAW.

  • Histogram — Catch exposure and color casts before they hit export.

  • Batch Editing — One edit you love, applied to the rest of the shoot.

  • Copy and Paste — Bring across only the adjustments you want.

  • Export — Photos, video, and presets, out to wherever you share.

  • iPhone, iPad, Mac, and Vision — Start on a phone, finish on a Mac. Same tools, no handoff.

  • Start Instantly — Open a photo and start shaping it — nothing to set up first.

  • Albums and Folders — Keep a shoot together and favorites close at hand.

  • Shortcuts — Crop, frame, and export without opening the editor.
