Switching to iPad Pro

I’m trading my iMac in to get an iPad Pro. I’ve considered a MacBook Pro, but unfortunately it’s way to expensive. So I am resorting to the iPad Pro which I heard is powerful enough to edit photos and 4K video. I just hope Luminar will be compatible with IPad soon. It’s my favorite editor and I don’t want to give it up but will have to when I make the switch to iPad.

  Hi Joseph! We will definitely develop an iOS version, nevertheless not in the near future. Stay tuned!

  Well I just made the switch. I got an IPad Pro and unfortunately had to give up Lumina and go with Affinity pro and Lightroom for photo edits. I would love to use Luminary’s seeing that it is a superior editing program but obviously lacks the now a days important mobile version. Please develop your awesome program to a mobile version soon. I hated to give up Luminar but had no choice.

  I am wishing for an ipad pro version. As i like to travel and having to bring my laptop just for Luminar is a pain sometimes. I love luminar but have to use affinity photo. I think skylum is losing out on lot of business because of not having an ipad version.

  Me too, still waiting. I am using other apps right now and will definitely switch to luminar once or if it is available. Not many use the pc or Mac versions as much any more, especially since everything is steadily changing to mobile applications.

  Perhaps in Luminar 5.  I can't imagine this has high priority at present.

  I am pretty exclusive on iPad Pro, I know a full version of photoshop is coming to the iPad Pro so hoping Luminar is also coming soon

  Wasting your breath Guys. They need to get Luminar up to an acceptable standard first. All you can do is move on as you have with the underlying platform.

  Hi Sterling,

  At the moment we are focused on our software for MacOS and Windows, but we know that mobile apps are important to our users so we are considering this for future development.

  I’m in the same boat as you and still waiting. It’s been almost 9 month since I first posted on this topic so hopefully soon. I’m tired of subpar editing apps.

  There are many thousand of others who just want Skylum to focus on getting Luminar working properly and with all the promised functionality. Support for the iPad is, I hope, currently well down the list

  I think you guys better do it now cause apple released a new iPad and I sense a load a photographers dumping their macs to move to just an iPad work system. If you guys wanna stay in the game don't do what Nokia did and board the ship late. (Just a piece of advice).

  I've used your trial version and I love it way more than adobe's subscription service and I feel it's the perfect alternative to their load heavy (but ios available options).

  If you guys do end up making the ios version...don't forget about functionality...and ramping it up to a level that's as good as working on it from a mac (or PC).

  Hi everyone,

  I regret to tell you that there's still no precise ETA regarding the iPad version of Luminar. But I will pass your feedback to our team to let them know that our customers are still waiting for this version.

  Wow... I just don't understand how $kylum won't embrace the ever growing iPad Mobile working world?! Especially with the newer iOS platform and now the Magic Keyboard... how is this not a priority there and with NO one there giving us any updates and real communication about all after like a year now??

  Hey Margaret - You don't have to regret anything - I was just trying to voice some form of urgency if Skylum still wants to stay in the market..

  Hi Sterling,

  For now, we're mainly concentrated on Mac and Windows platforms. But once we are ready to develop versions for mobile platforms, our customers will be the first ones to know! We value your feedback and hear each and every one of you, and we consider the support of mobile platforms, but developing the iPad version is not our main focus at the moment. 

  Hope for your understanding.

  With the 2018 iPad pro + the new release of the iPad pro this week, I can only imagine a steady increase in photographers wanting to move to the more natural way of editing as well as the enjoyment of being able to instantly sync your changes across multiple machines so you can move from your office to mobile device to spend time with your family while still editing.

  On1 are set to introduce this and Adobe already have it, Serif have their incredible Affinity app also on mobile devices, it would be nice if Skylum kept pace.
