Give your videos a cinematic look. Lutter brings creative filters, LUTs, and precise color controls together in one video color grading workspace. Grade video on iPhone and iPad. Start with an everyday clip, a travel video, or your next short film. Shape the mood, compare your edits, and carry a consistent look across your videos. Import, grade, and export without a watermark. MORE ROOM TO CREATE On iPad, a larger preview and dedicated landscape controls give color wheels, curves and LUT browsing room to breathe. Add warm halation and soft bloom to highlights. Temporal noise reduction is available on supported devices with iOS/iPadOS 26 or later and compatible footage. BUILD YOUR LOOK • Apply built-in looks or import your own .cube LUTs. • Stack LUTs and independent color adjustments in the order you want. Adjust color before or after a look, change its strength, or bypass a stage to compare. • Refine exposure, contrast, saturation, vibrance, white balance, and tint. Use color wheels and tone curves for finer control, then add film grain. • Get a starting point with Auto Exposure, Auto White Balance, and a white-balance picker. COMPARE AND REUSE COLOR • Save a video frame as a reference, or import a reference photo from Photos or Files. Compare while you grade, including HDR references. • Reapply color settings from saved video references to other clips. Imported photos provide a visual reference for your own adjustments. • Copy and paste color settings between projects, or apply a look to multiple clips for a consistent shoot. SEE WHAT YOU ARE CHANGING • Compare the original and graded image with a split preview, or work in full screen. • Check exposure and color with a live histogram, floating waveform, vectorscope, and false color. • View HDR previews using the extra brightness of supported displays. FINISH YOUR VIDEO • Trim the start and end, crop, rotate, flip, straighten, and choose an aspect ratio. • Reduce handheld shake with stabilization. Use Skin Tone Fix to reduce unwanted magenta in skin. • Export up to 4K with H.264, HEVC, or ProRes 422 options. Control resolution, frame rate, and bitrate. • Export Rec.2020 HLG or PQ HDR with compatible 10-bit HEVC or ProRes settings. • Export supported color adjustments as a .cube LUT to reuse in other grading tools. MADE FOR YOUR WORKFLOW Projects save automatically, so you can organize multiple videos and return to your edits. Preview Pro editing tools before purchasing. Pro unlocks advanced color tools, film effects, stabilization and advanced export with one purchase, no subscription. Scopes, curves and color wheels remain free. WORK WITH YOUR FOOTAGE Grade standard SDR and HDR video, with support for Apple Log and Apple Log 2 when you need it. Choose Sony S-Log3 or supported DJI D-Log/D-Log M source profiles. On compatible devices, trim ProRes RAW/RAW HQ clips and export RAW to Files; RAW color grading is not supported. YOUR FOOTAGE STAYS WITH YOU No account required. Video processing happens on your device. No ads or cross-app tracking. Usage analytics and crash diagnostics can be disabled in Settings. Start with a clip. Make the color yours.

E-Log is short for Easy Log: recording in Log, made easy. Your iPhone can already record in Apple Log. E-Log is what makes it usable. Log keeps all the light and colour the sensor can see, but it looks flat and washed out until someone grades it. E-Log puts the grade on the monitor, live, while you shoot. You frame what you'll actually publish, not a grey approximation of it. WHAT YOU CAN DO • See your look live. Turn on the eye and the monitor shows the finished image. The file stays raw. • Or bake it in. One button and the clip comes out already graded, ready to publish with no edit. • Both, on the same take. Preview one look, export with another. Nothing is decided at the moment you press record. • Bring your own looks. Import any .cube LUT built for Apple Log. FULL CONTROL, ONLY WHEN YOU WANT IT Shutter, ISO and white balance in auto, manual, or any mix of the two. Shutter angle or speed. Automatic limits so auto never picks something you'd never pick. WHAT YOU NEED TO JUDGE AN EXPOSURE Waveform and histogram · zebra on highlights or midtones · focus peaking · framing guides for 9:16, 2.39 and more · horizon level. None of them is ever recorded into the file. YOUR CLIPS STAY YOURS Takes live in the app's own library, not in Photos: they are 10-bit files and the system would compress them. Export whatever you want, wherever you want, in Log or already graded. REQUIREMENTS E-Log needs an iPhone that can record in Apple Log (iPhone 15 Pro and later Pro models). The app checks your device at first launch and tells you straight away if it can't. SUBSCRIPTION E-Log is a subscription. Yearly and Monthly include exactly the same features (recording in Log, looks on the monitor, and exporting clips with the look baked in), and Yearly comes with a free trial. Cancel anytime in one tap. Downloading the .cube files themselves, to take your looks into DaVinci, Premiere or another camera, is a separate one-time purchase available to any subscriber once the free trial has ended.
