## What is Lume~?

Lume is a local-first iOS utility for quick daily notes around light and stills. Use Glow to record short ambient voice memos with the microphone—playback and pause states stay clear, and starting a new recording can replace the previous memo after you confirm. Use Capture to take a photo or pick from your library, preview it, then spend glow credits to save your export to the Photos library. Before first use, you can review the Privacy Policy and Terms of Use in the in-app browser. In Profile, check your credit balance, open Gem Vault to buy consumable credits via In-App Purchase, and open the Privacy Policy again if needed. The current release does not expose an in-app feedback form. There is no social feed and no account server in this app—your content stays on your device except when you choose to save to Photos.
