See more after dark. Loomen brightens night photos and videos in real time, so dark streets, dim rooms and night walks come out clear instead of black. WHY LOOMEN Your iPhone camera gives up when the light goes. Loomen doesn't. It amplifies the light that is actually there, cuts the noise, and holds on to detail. Live, on screen, before you even press the shutter. WHAT YOU GET • Real-time low-light preview: see the enhanced image while you frame the shot • Brighter night photos and clearer night video • Five looks: Green, Amber, Natural, Mono and Thermal-style • True-Dark mode with LiDAR depth view on supported iPhones • Advanced noise reduction that keeps detail instead of smearing it • Zoom, grid, torch and 16:9 or 4:3 framing • Tap for photo, hold for video. One control, no menus • Works with your built-in iPhone cameras. No extra hardware needed MADE FOR REAL NIGHTS Night walks and hikes. Dim restaurants and bars. Concerts and gigs. Camping and stargazing. City streets after sunset. Pets and wildlife in the dark. Evening travel. Moonlit landscapes. Power cuts. Finding what you dropped under the seat of the car. PRIVACY FIRST Your photos and videos stay on your device. Loomen does not upload your camera content to any server in order to enhance it. No account, no sign-up, no tracking of what you shoot. HONEST ABOUT WHAT IT IS Loomen amplifies the light that already exists in a scene using computational photography. It is not infrared, it is not military night vision, and it cannot show you anything in absolutely zero light. What it does do is pull a usable, detailed image out of scenes where your normal camera gives you nothing but black. The Thermal-style option is a colour look, not a heat sensor. We would rather tell you that up front than have you find out after downloading. Open Loomen tonight and point it at the darkest corner of the room.
