I’ve been waiting for them to make this app for forever!
Haha yeah a lot of people have. It's fun, give it a go!
This tutorial showed up in my TH-cam feed about an hour after I purchased an annual subscription. Perfect timing, now I have a quick start on how to use Luminar for iPad. Thanks, extremely helpful!!!
thanks for watching and glad it helped!
Thanks Jim
I tried the app and watched the video and tried app again.
I’m disappointed that it’s another subscription. If they want to stand out among the other mobile editors, another subscription plan is not the way to do it. I’ve been with Luminar for quite some time and have adjusted to some of their price changes , but I have been very frustrated too. I don’t think like you said this is any kind of a replacement for Lightroom mobile. The interface is cute but for me that doesn’t mean much.
So wish Luminar the best in their start up and hopefully some dramatic improvements to set them apart from all the other mobile editors. When I think about what Apple photos will do this, other than some of the AI is not special.
I’m not trying to be negative, but I was looking for something , that would completely amaze me not just offer me something less than or similar to something else
Hi Mark and no worries. I do think it will evolve over time and get more features, etc. For now it's not a desktop/laptop replacement but a good app for quick edits etc. Thanks.
Love it what a great look and feel. So happy for it to come out.
thanks Tom and it is a lot of fun!
Excellent, thanks Jim!
thank you Kit!
Lots of criticism on their forum. Pointed out that Lightroom has iPad app included in subscription. And that there are still plenty of issues with main program that need to be addressed. Like, how about a decent manual? I had days of frustration to get proper operation under Win11, and their "help"? Well it couldn't.
Sure but if you buy the Luminar Neo 2 year plan for $119 and 2 years for the iPad you're paying $179 over 2 years instead of $240 for Adobe. So which is the better price?
I follow you and from your early Neo videos, I have been a fan of Luminar Neo with a full subscription. Blown away how they have added so many great plug-ins. But, now I am really excited about the iPad version downloaded from your link. This will be a fun ride. Bring on your tutorials 😊
thanks so much Kevin and more videos coming for sure!
Jim, Great intro to Luminar iPad….this is the app that I will be using for my travel edits!
thanks and have fun with it!
Thanks Jim!!!
thank you!
Thanks for the first look at Luminar for the iPad. It looks interesting.
thanks Ron and it is fun!
Does the app has access to an external hard disk or SD-card to process DSLR photo's?
Cool!
thanks for watching!
Hi Jim, thanks for this update. Does this replace imgmi? I have been waiting for an iPad editor from Luminar for some time now. A while ago I started using ON1 Photo for my iPad and have found it pretty useful for quick edits. Obviously it does not have all of the tools available in Photo Raw 2024 but it does have masking in a limited capacity and it is easy to use. Wondered if you have had any experience with it?
Thanks Frank and no I have not tried the On1 Mobile app yet. Perhaps I will check it out. I am not sure about imgmi but I am guessing that app will fade away so to speak. I never used it myself. This app is branded Luminar so I suspect it is their real focus between the two.
Very interesting. It has potential! I’d like to see some more of the features from Luminar Neo ported over. At some point I’d also like to see both this and Luminar Neo sync to a cloud service. I could see myself starting an edit on the go with my iPad and finishing up on desktop, but I don’t want to have to worry about moving files back and forth.
Thanks Russell and yes that would be really interesting. Perhaps that will happen at some point. thanks
Hi Jim, you are absolutely right. Luminar is actually not an alternative to Lightroom, but... It's just fun to work with the app. The app runs wonderfully smoothly on my M1 iPad and the user interface is intuitive to use. In my opinion, a great program for quick image editing on the go.
Thank you very much for this video!
Thanks for watching Andreas and have fun with it!
Downloaded the app last night. Just started using it, and am enjoying it so far. One thing I found wonkey, is the import of photos from Apple Photos. They are all put of order (chronologically). Trying to find a specific photo I want to edit, is challenging. Even if I know the date the photo was shot, because all photos imported in a random order, finding the photo is difficult and really time consuming!
That's good to know. I only had a few images in iCloud that could sync with this app so I didn't really run into that one.
Jim, Enjoyed your review of Luminar for iPad. However I lost interest once I found out you can’t process Raw images. Hopefully down the road you will be able to. So for now I will just stick with Lightroom Classic/Lightroom Mobile. Cheers!
Understood Stuart. As I say in the video, this is good for quick edits on the go but not full featured yet. I'm hopeful it will get there.
This is very cool--thanks for the overview, Jim! Very creative and out-of-the-box thinking on the interface. I'll bet there are some Star Trek fans at Skylum! Doesn't Luminar have another app called Luminar Share? You should do a video showing how we can use these two apps together to shuttle images to and from our Luminar catalog. One question: will Luminar Neo subscribers have access to this app, or do we have to pay for another subscription?
Thanks Carl and I forgot about Luminar Share LOL as I never use it. This is a separate subscription, not related to any subscription you have for Neo.
Thanks Jim! This seems pretty powerful for a mobile app. The controls are perfect for controlling with your fingers, very well done. I'm a bit sad it is subscription only, but being a fan of Luminar products I might set aside my principles.
I have 2 questions, I hope you can answer them. Is the iOS version the only requirement, or is a minimum iPad model required as well? Is there a need to be connected to the internet to use this app? I own a wifi-only 10th gen regular iPad, that's why I am asking.
ask luminar
Good questions. I am not sure if iOS17 is the only requirement - I have asked them and will share when I find out. I suspect iOS17 only works on more recent models but that is just a guess. I definitely am no going to try it on my old iPad Mini from 7 years ago. For usage, you do not need to be on the internet. You need internet to get the photos in it of course, but otherwise no internet is needed for the actual editing. My iPad Pro is wifi only too.
@@JimNix thanks
I had to get a new iPad and update to OS 17 to get it to install. My 8 year old one wouldn't work but I was wanting a new one for a while so it was a good excuse LOL
Hi Jim; Very instructional video, what a great into to this product. A question... if I edit a raw and then save (share) it, do I get another raw, a tif or a jpg? I'm not clear on the saved format. Thanks
Hi Marc and it's a jpg. You can edit a raw file but it's not a true raw editor so the only output is jpg at this time.
@@JimNixWell, that's a bummer... hopefully, that will be a future enhancement. We really need either a raw back, or even a tif. That's a huge loss in both quality and bit depth. But, I signed up with your link and I'm "in" for the long haul.
@@marcrjacobs yes I Agree, a bummer for now, but I am assuming this will develop further and raw will be fully supported - it only makes sense to do so
oh and thanks for using my link! 🙏🏻
@@JimNixAgreed
Is there a button for cancellation of previous action?
Arrow on the upper left
Hey Jim how did you get the little red dot to show up as a cursor on the iPad portion? I couldn't figure out how to do that in my recording.
In iPad Settings menu, go to Accessibility and then check under Pointer Control. Enjoy!
@@JimNix I just looked, under Accessibility I do not have anything called Pointer Control, is it in a sub menu?
@@DigitalPhotoMentor mine is just Settings>Accessibility>Pointer control
@@JimNix is it an iPad Pro? maybe a different OS? I don't have that option
@@DarleneHildebrandt yes iPad Pro, 12.9in with iOS 17.3.1
Jim where do i go to get this ?
Here's the link: bit.ly/4bYbgWN
Jim, great video. Is Luminar for iPad only for new iPads? I have an iPad Air 3rd edition. Does not seem to work on iPad.
Thanks Danny and I am asking them for full tech specs. It requires iOS17 so I think that eliminates some older models.
@@JimNix I do have IOS 17. However my iPad is the 3rd generation iPad Air.
@@dannysluxurycruisevacation8812 hmm I am not sure then. I have asked Skylum for more tech info.
@@JimNix I did figure it out and it does work. I did not realize that I needed to open a photo.
@@dannysluxurycruisevacation8812 oh ok great glad it's working for ya!
Will it work on an iPad Air 3
I am not sure but it does require iOS17. I am asking them for full tech specs.
Finally.
haha indeed!
How much does the subscription cost?
If you watch the video I cover that.
This would have been great for our recent Australia trip but I’m not willing to do subscriptions so guess I won’t be adding this.
Understood, thanks for watching.
Not even for 30 bucks?
If it was a one time purchase of $30 I would try it. But I don't want to pay every year and there isn't a trial period like there is with Adobe products to see if I would even like it, although Jim's review makes it look easy to use.
There is a trial though
@@habigscrapbooks there is a 7 day trial included with the 1 year subscription
I’m sure a great vid as always Jim and awesome to hear finally brought to iPad. I have to say I’ve had a love hat- uh strong dislike w Luminar for years. One in the first few years so many things didn’t work as well as advertised originally and more recently all the next level features were added plugins that cost extra. And of course the monthly subscription. I spent so many frustrating hours that gave up on them some time ago but hope all has worked out for the new users and the die hard faithfulls.
Editing my comment to add: actually watched your whole vid anyway Jim and very cool UI UX, I could see just using the Enhance Ai for super quick on the run mobile edits and a very fair price at just $29 a year

thanks for watching, I appreciate that and yes great for on the go edits really quick!
Are you using a mouse or pen?
In this video I am using my mouse simply because I can add that red circle around it to make it easier for you all to see what moves I make. In real editing, I use a combo of both. It does support the Apple Pencil. Thanks.
Thanks… looked more like a mouse. I have both as well. Your work is awesome. Thanks for sharing
@@staffordfields4670 thanks so much Stafford!
It requires IOS 17 or above and has in app purchases.
Yes iOS17 for sure. I haven't seen in app purchases come up for me yet.
@@JimNix Well it has come up for me. As I have NEO Pro, thought this would be free. But again Skylum want us to put our hand in our pocket for this. At least Adobe give their mobile app to subscribers. Oh well back to Lightroom.
I've been using it for 2 days, haven't seen any in app purchases. Likely that is just more skies if you want them
@@DigitalPhotoMentor I bet you're right
It edits DNG...👍
Yes it does.
Too bad no android version :(
Hopefully someday.
Can’t save edits… ?!?! Meaning work in steps say on different days or want to make changes later… everything discarded? Have to edit in one session then share, export results… Wow. Neo is incredible, and tho this uses some of its greatness, this is incredibly limited, and I support Skylum.
Also, NEO supporters and users, this should be part of an overall subscription we already pay for…
I'm a bit confused. Why is my positive comment on your video not displayed here?
Hi Andreas and I see this comment but nothing else from you on this video today.
@@JimNixSomething seems to be going wrong on TH-cam right now. I've tried it twice more now. My comments are not getting through. I'll try again tomorrow.
@@andreask.6872 it worked, I see another comment from you now, thanks 🙏🏻
And yet again, they are putting their hand out for more money... This should be included for those that already own Neo..
They are a business, and they make products and sell them like every other business. I don't see this as having their hand out. They made something and it's our choice if we want to purchase it or not.
@@JimNix I get that but it's a dumbed down version of Neo for the ipad, New users... Sure charge away, people that already own their products should get it, that's my personal opinion (I won't be paying more than I already have /do)
@@michaelhall859 understood and to each his/her own. I totally get it.
Yes I also stoped watching this when its a subscription, (well I did finish to of) how much is going out for monies
I’m only 71 and I have to watch the pennies and I’m on a pension, but I got there
Yeh I still pay the power bills and my phone and other bills but there is only so much I can afford
Other wise I have to cut down on the food and I only eat what is needed
Cheers have a great day
Totally understood and only buy things you really think you will use.
Novel interface, but very basic editing capabilities
It's definitely not a replacement for a full-featured editor, as I say in the video. But it's great for quick, on the go edits and things like that. Plus it's fun.
I stopped watching after i saw that it is a subscription. I don’t support the you own nothing but you pay forever agenda.
Hi there and no worries if you do not want a subscription.
What DO you own forever? Your house? Car? Grow up 😂
@@dayeah765caoni3 if i buy something i own it. I can do with it whatever i want. What you do is nothing but renting. You are a slave to your payments and if you Stop paying they take everything away. Thats not the future i want. I am not born to be a slave.maybe you are..if i buy a god damn software i want to use it forever if i want to
@@dayeah765caoni3Yes, both.
Hmmm so perhaps you should stop paying all your monthly bills like for your cell phone, utilities, bank fees, etc. Let me know how that works out. ;-)
