LogLab is a focused, professional color grading tool for iPhone and iPad. Film in Log right in the app, or import footage shot in Apple Log, Apple Log 2, Sony S-Log3, Canon C-Log2/C-Log3 or DJI D-Log, and grade it with accurate, colorimetrically grounded log-to-Rec.709 conversion in a real-time, 10-bit Metal-powered preview. LOG CAMERA Capture Log video with any iPhone. Pro iPhones record Apple Log and Apple Log 2 natively; every other iPhone records LogLab Log, an Apple Log–compatible format converted from the camera's 10-bit HDR video. Choose 4K or 1080p, 24 to 120 fps, your aspect ratio, and high-bitrate HEVC or ProRes 422 HQ on iPhones that support it. MANUAL GRADING Fine-tune exposure, white balance (temperature & tint), highlights, shadows, saturation, contrast, grain and halation with precise, responsive sliders — and undo any change. LUTS Browse a set of built-in creative looks, or import your own: .cube and .3dl LUTs, whole LUT folders, or DaVinci Resolve PowerGrades (.drx). LogLab converts your clip to whatever log format a LUT was made for, and LUT thumbnails preview each look on your own footage. ASPECT RATIO Crop to 16:9, 4:3, 1:1, 3:4, 4:5 or 9:16 — centered and distortion-free, ready for any platform. COMPARE & REVIEW Drag the before/after handle over your preview to compare your grade with the untouched source. EXPORT Export to MP4 or MOV in H.264, H.265 or ProRes 422 HQ, straight to Photos or Files, with your original audio. Copy a grade from one clip and paste it onto another to keep a consistent look across a whole shoot. Works on iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo, with layouts made for every screen. LOGLAB PRO Unlock the Log camera, the full library of creative LUTs, LUT and PowerGrade import, and ProRes export. Choose a one-time lifetime purchase or a monthly subscription — both work on all your iPhones and iPads signed in with the same Apple Account. Manual grading, log conversion and H.264/H.265 export are free. The monthly subscription renews automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period, and is charged to your Apple Account. Manage or cancel it anytime in Settings → your name → Subscriptions.
