8 March , 2024  

Skylum, a Ukrainian developer of AI-based photo editors with an audience of more than 1 million users worldwide, has introduced an application for tablets for the first time. In particular, Luminar for iPad offers comprehensive photo editing capabilities – from basic settings and filters to AI functions. In addition, the program has an innovative and playful design with interactive controls, providing users with a brand new mobile editing experience.

As with the development of any photo editing software, Skylum has made Luminar for iPad feature-rich and intuitive to use for photographers of all levels.

Key features of the program:
Development tools, i.e., basic settings for color correction, including exposure, temperature, hue, contrast, highlights, shadows, white and black, saturation, brightness, and vignetting.
Basic tools include details, curves, crop, erase, landscape (including background removal), and monochrome mode.
AI-based tools such as Enhance AI (automatic photo enhancement), Sky AI (sky replacement), Structure AI (detail and texture enhancement), and Relight AI (lighting and contrast balancing).
A collection of filters that not only provides reliable color correction, but also pays tribute to the nostalgia of film cameras, beloved by many in the world of photography.
Three editing modes that allow users to easily switch between Development, Filters, and Sky modes, depending on their own editing preferences and desired results.
Apple Pencil support, which includes integration with the Apple Pencil for more precise editing and better control of settings.
According to Skylum, the main goal of Luminar for iPad is to completely redefine mobile photo editing by making it more interactive and entertaining for the user. For example, while browsing through the LUT collection in search of the perfect filter for their photo, users of the app will hear the nostalgic click of a film changer. This element, designed with a love of analog photography, will add a playful dimension to the processing process.

“By leveraging the iPad platform and our cutting-edge technology, we are bringing to market an app that delivers both the fun editing experience and the professional-grade results that Luminar is known for,” said Skylum CEO Ivan Kutanin.

Luminar for iPad is already available for download on the website. In addition, the program is available for visionOS, and owners of Apple Vision Pro devices can use the application for free until June 5, 2024.

As a reminder, Skylum is a leading innovator in photo editing software and the company behind the award-winning Luminar Neo app. As a result, the photo editor developed by Ukrainians received the TIPA 2022 and TIPA 2023 awards in the Best Imaging Software for Photography Enthusiasts category.
