What's New

Non-destructive editing by design

Edit freely, without compromise. Darkroom gives you complete creative freedom with non-destructive editing from the start. Experiment with presets as springboards for new looks, every adjustment is reversible, every step saved in your full edit history. Copy, paste, and refine across photos or videos without ever committing or damaging your originals. From first draft to final export, your work stays entirely under your control.

Photo & Video in one flow

One workflow. Every medium. Darkroom brings photos and videos together in a single, fluid editing experience. Work with Portrait, RAW, ProRAW, Slowmotion, 4K, and even 8K video using the same powerful tools, from color and curves to masks and presets. Adjust exposure, refine tones, and recover detail in real time, so editing motion feels as effortless and precise as editing stills.

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.

3,950 Free Community Presets

Free looks from photographers worldwide — skip the blank slate, start from a look you love, then refine it until it's unmistakably yours.

Don't take our word for it!

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 — photos, video, and every device.

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

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

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

  • RAW & ProRAW — True 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 & Paste — Bring across only the adjustments you want.

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

  • iPhone, iPad, Mac & 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 & Folders — Keep a shoot together and favorites close at hand.
