Free app version was useless

I got as far as selecting a photo to enhance then could get no further. Stuck in an endless loop unable to progress any further.

Still Needs HDR preservation

Great app, but the HDR is removed if I edit the photo with Luminar. Please update to keep the HDR in the picture.

Do not buy on Apple!!!

Bought Luminar Neo through the Apple App Store, both the app and the desktop license. Nowhere does it say the App Store version skips the fall upgrade that Skylum gives to direct customers! So you pay full price, then get cut off from new features or forced to pay again when the next update drops!

This is not disclosed anywhere before purchase. Buy direct from Skylum's website. Do not go through Apple, and they will not refund you! SCAM!
