## What is SageTone?

SageTone is a raw photo editor for iPhone and iPad. Fine-tune light and color, mask exactly what you mean, and export the file you need. Every edit is saved as a recipe of settings, so the photo you started with is never changed.

LIGHT AND COLOR
• Exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites and blacks
• A parametric curve, plus point curves for all channels or for red, green and blue
• White balance with an eyedropper, plus temperature, tint, vibrance and saturation
• An eight-band Color Mixer for hue, saturation and luminance
• Three-way Color Grading for shadows, midtones and highlights
• Auto tone and white balance for a quick start

EFFECTS, DETAIL AND OPTICS
• Texture, clarity and dehaze
• Vignette and grain
• Sharpening and noise reduction
• Chromatic aberration removal and manual lens corrections

PROFILES AND PRESETS
• About 45 original profiles, from neutral color to black & white, modern and vintage looks
• 48 original presets in ten groups, each with an amount slider
• Save your own edits as presets

MASKING AND RETOUCHING
• Select the subject or the background, detected on your device
• Brush, linear and radial gradients, and luminance and color ranges
• Add, subtract, intersect or invert masks, then give each one its own adjustments
• Heal and clone spots with adjustable size, feather and opacity

CROP AND GEOMETRY
• Aspect ratios, straighten, auto straighten, rotate and flip
• Upright, perspective and distortion correction

LIBRARY
• Albums and smart collections: All Photos, Your Edits, Unedited, Imports and Deleted
• Star ratings, pick and reject flags, filters, and search by title, caption, keywords or camera
• A full-screen view: swipe between photos, double-tap to zoom, touch and hold to see the original, and show the histogram
• Select several photos to rate, flag, add to an album, paste settings or export together

EDIT WITH CONFIDENCE
• Undo and redo, with a history of up to 100 steps per photo
• Save named versions of a photo and return to any of them
• Copy settings from one photo and paste them onto others

EXPORT THE WAY YOU WANT
• JPEG, HEIC, PNG or TIFF
• Choose the size, quality and color space: sRGB or Display P3
• Choose which metadata to include, add a text watermark and name your files
• Share with the share sheet or save straight to Photos

BRING IN YOUR PHOTOS
• From your photo library, the Files app or the camera
• RAW support depends on your camera model and iOS version

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
SageTone has no account, no ads, no analytics and no tracking. Your photos, edits and library stay on your device, and a photo leaves SageTone only when you share or export it.

FREE, WITH AN OPTIONAL TIP JAR
Every feature is free for everyone. If you enjoy SageTone, you can leave an optional tip in Settings. Tips unlock nothing.
