Audio syncing issues, WD Passport support is unusable. I've used LumaFusion for about 5 months as my editing app of choice and have generally been ok with the intricacies, but while editing my latest video I found the straw that broke this camel's back (pun intended...read on). While overall things work well enough to get a decent edit done, when I went back to start adding music I found that every time I hit play the music starts from a different point in the song. As such it's impossible to edit to the beat when the beat changes every time, and from what I'm reading I'm not the only one who is experiencing this issue. Another different, non-deal breaker, yet still super annoying issue is the WD Passport support, or should I say lack thereof. While they advertise that you can edit directly from the drive and it'll only download the necessary footage, in practice the connection is so slow that its completely unuable. Not sure if this is an issue with the drive or LumaFusion. As such I've resorted back to just copying footage from the drive to a PNY lightning/USB flash drive then copying from there to my iPad. It's time consuming but it works and once the footage is on the iPad I can edit like normal without waiting for it to buffer. In the end I'm giving up on trying to travel light and still get edits done on the road and will be packing my laptop from now on so I can use a real video editor and save my sanity at the expense of my back. Bon Voyage.

Powerful video editor, just one suggestion. I’ve been using LumaFusion since December 2020. It was a little confusing at first, but months later I’ve already gotten used to the keyboard shortcuts, user interface, and the features it comes with. From adding multiple keys to exporting in high resolutions and adding multiple layers, It’s actually very excellent. But I have just one suggestion: can you add support for mouse, because me and probably some other people who own iPad Pro or iPad Air and Magic Keyboard/mouse/other branded keyboard with trackpad have gotten used to using a cursor on screen, so scan you add full support for trackpads and mouse. Overall, It’s a great app. P.S: Also there are a few bugs that have playback issuses. Can you fix that? Thanks! :)

Just a DIY Musician trying to put picture to the music.. To preface this, I just want to say I am no pro video editor. My strength lies in music, and as someone just looking for some pro quality functionality that allows me to do more than iMovie without lopping a hand off at the wrist for a big budget video editing software, LumaFusion checks all the boxes for me. I can choose aspect ratios, rearrange clips and stack them, choose the duration of audio and video, photos, GIFs, what have you. Importing is immensely simple. Every file I have tried to import always has a “share to LumaFusion” button. Easy to understand, and let’s not mention the included tutorial videos and PDF which is masterfully explained. Perhaps my amateur nature at this field of media is what allows me to see no flaws in this software- I’ll leave that level of critique to the pros. But for this musician- 10/10. Bravo. Exactly what I was looking for.

Honestly, fluent app for editing.. The plugin compatibility is very nice. And it’s use is very easy and efficient when you get used to the learning curve. But with the app still crashing on occasions doesn’t really fit the $20 price tag. Most of these crashes come from basic editing and the crashes seem to happen during the preview playing and/or ending. Same thing applies when I add a plugin. AUv3 could need a little more work to be intuitive, but the software without the add-ons being a one-time purchase makes it better than finite-amount of time subscription services that contain ads most of the time. Consider fixing crashes with AUv3 and the preview playback and I’ll connect with this program a little more well.

Great program. Offensive customer support.. I’m a full time videographer who mostly uses FCPX but purchased Lumafusion for simple edits on the go. I emailed customer support asking if FCPX project compatibility will be available in the near future. Their customer service responded quickly with a nice and professional email saying yes it will be a feature available soon but will be an additional $20 fee and will not be covered under the standard free updates. I was disappointed that they chose to make this a paywall locked feature instead of including it in their software update but they’re allowed to do that. I just responded explaining I purchased this software under the impression these features will be included so unfortunately I won’t be purchasing this $20 update for my own personal use. They told me $20 is fine if I have “quite a bit of money” invested into my video editing capability. So I guess this software is only for professionals with “quite a bit of money”..

Great app but 1 thing I need. I love this App and use it all the time for editing simple videos I record with my iPhone 7 Red. It’s great for tweaking simple things like endings, or cutting parts out, etc. Also useful for more complicated videos when needed. I used pinnacle pro before and loved it and this app certainly improved upon it. The 4K support is awesome but if you have a long video can take time to load and everything will move much slower. A minor detail not applying to my needs very often. One of the stand outs among others is the incredible audio features. I won’t go into detail but it’s pretty extensive and feature full allowing you to adjust even the most minor audio details. In closing and to reference my title , a surprising feature that is lacking is a simple reverb preset. When looking at all of the audio presets offered, not having a reverb seems silly. People are more familiar with Reverb then most other audio terms and is the most useful and easily applied. Having more in depth presets like Bandpass Filter, N-Band EQ, etc is great but I mean come on dude where’s the Reverb. That is all.

Solid editing app. I’ve been using this video editing app for about a year now and have been very happy with it! I purchased and use at least three other apps before using this one and definitely think it was worth the money. There were a couple of times where I had some issues with the app but it was with some complicated files and I contacted the developer and they help walk me through the issues. I really hope that they add a couple of features in the future additions. The two I would like to see first would be a stabilization effect and a chromakey effect. It does take a little while to learn how to use this app so don’t think you can buy it and then just magically be able to edit videos. Take the time to learn how to use it and the workflow and that time spent will be well invested. There are a few instances while using the app that you might feel like you’re stuck on a screen. You just don’t know where to click to get back to where you were. In those situations it seems like you need to just click on whatever text is on the screen and then you’ll maybe end up where you want to be. I’d like to finish this review was saying that that iMovie mobile is the worst video app I used of all the ones I tried. Also, I’d recommend getting a phone gimbal and a wide angle lens for shooting your videos on your phone. I hope this helps. Aloha!

I can’t wait until they work out the export bug.. I created a four minute explainer video with multiple clips in three video tracks. The clips included video from my DSLR, some still pictures with key frame panning, some screen capture recording, and a transparent png overlay with our clinic logo. I also did some color correction to make my white shirt a true white while I was also able to maintain a pleasing warm skin tone. This would not have been possible with iMovie. The problem I had was when I tried to export the rendered video. The render would crash 33% of the way through until I had to delete clips and replace them with multiple renders in a time-wasting process of trial and error. It ultimately came down to one of my screen grab videos that I applied a speed change to, to slow it down. I unapplied the speed change, and it still crashed. I deleted the short clip, and it finally worked. Ultimately I’m upset that I had to spend so much time troubleshooting the bug, and I had to compromise my creative vision with the end product by deleting the clip. I’m not completely upset. I come from an era of using Sony Vegas, where you had a lot of flexibility, but it crashed all the time. I have more faith in the Luma developers to get things fixed.

Amazing app great results two small gripes. I have been using this app for a few years mainly to edit social media stuff but I have edited short films in the past. It’s app absolutely amazing. It allows me to do high-quality edits on the go and basically anywhere. The ability to edit from a drive only intensifies how great this app is. Right now we are limited to six video tracks and six audio tracks. This is where the two things I would change comes into play. I do not mind being limited to six video tracks. However, I would love to have the ability to compound clips onto one video tracks. Secondly, and more important in my opinion, I would ask if we can have more audio tracks. Other than that, it’s one of the most amazing apps and impressive apps I have used. And with the M2 chip there should be more options to upgrade this app. Luma fusion now has competition now that Davinci resolve is on the iPad. I’m not sure what Davinci resolve offers as I have not installed it yet, but it will be competition to say the least.

Almost Perfect. If iMovie hadn’t been dumbed down for smartphones, I would never have had a reason to search for this app. It is expensive as far as apps, but as the best video editor, fully featured and fast, it’s worth it. I deleted iMovie and see no reason to ever go back. From multi-track, nonlinear editing of video layers and audio layers independently, to easy animation of every video parameter similar to Adobe Premiere, the fact this app does all that with my 4K 150mbps H265 video on my iPhone 7+ without blinking blows my mind. The interface could be more streamlined and intuitive. You will need to watch their tutorials. In doing so, though, the phenomenal power of this editor will be obvious. Compared to other creative video apps that only work with one layer and charge you ridiculous subscription prices, this app is far superior and far cheaper.

Much more than iMovie. Easy to use and, only if you want, lots more. This video editor for iPad has all the complexity you might want. It also keeps the simple features simple. That’s the bottom line of this review—once I realized the basic features were easy to use, I abandoned the stock iMovie for iPad. This is a hobbyist’s review. I do no professional video work, but I spend much time on home videos. Apple’s iMovie app is wonderful for most home video editing projects, until more is needed. My first “need”, I thought at the time, was for more visual effects. Those were fun to play with in Luma Fusion, but my real need came later. My spouse and I both took iPhone videos of our child’s marching band. We had differing view points in the stadium—very nice inputs for a final product. Combining them, and keeping both video inputs precisely in sync with the band’s clear sound beats, can be challenging. I succeeded in iMovie, but inserting and removing material ruined the synchronization. The iMovie project was very painful to get right. Some time later, with similar inputs, I used Luma Fusion. It provides genuine multiple video tracks, tied reliably to the base video and soundtrack. All the editing/keeping-sync problems went away. That was my real need for a more sophisticated video editor. And yet, despite all the advanced features, the most common editing remains as easy as iMovie. That’s why I switched to Luma Fusion—easy to use and, only if you want, lots more.

Finally, a pro video editor for the iPad!. I was a Pinnacle Pro user who was always disappointed by it’s limitations. I’m happy to say that LumaFusion makes up for every Pinnacle Pro deficiency. The ability to have 3 video and audio tracks is HUGE and the level of control you can natively exert to both he video and audio is impressive. The key-framing capabilities are particularly useful and something lacking in most iOS video editing programs. The StoryBlocks integration is another killer feature. The free offerings are more than enough for most, but I’m a subscriber and their prices are low, so this is icing on the cake. I’ve completed a personal and professional project so far on my 12.9” iPad Pro (original) and haven’t experienced any slow-down whatsoever. I’m a pretty demanding user, being accustomed to Premiere Pro and Avid, but this is a legit professional mobile video editing suite. Well done, Luma Touch.

The only useful video editing app I’m aware of. There are a lot of video editing apps on iOS, but this is the only one that actually allows me to produce a complex, polished product from start to finish on just my iPad Pro. In recent times it’s performance has really improved, and as I’ve grown along with the app I’ve learned ways to avoid technical problems that prevented me from exporting projects in the past. I think this app is more reliable than ever, and it was always reliable enough in the past. If you do professional video and have an iPad Pro then lumafusion is a must have app. Indeed, because of both Luma fusion and procreate, I consider the iPad Pro a must have tool for creators. These two programs in conjunction are simply immensely powerful. Also, Luma fusion technical support is outstanding....they aware of all potential issues and will help you work through them systematically.

Glitch Ruined Hours of Work. This is a well designed app, and may deserve 5 stars in the future. However I have been experiencing multiple media issues and errors. For example it may say “missing media, reimport the file”. The file is indeed there, playable, workable, but upon exporting an error is experienced. Optimize and consolidate does not always fix it. I can not simply re-edit this one media file, as I have spent hours on it. For the media to work in the project and then suddenly not upon export is infuriating. Is it corrupt or not? If so, perhaps let me know before I spend 6 hours working with a playable media file that is not “missing”, and very much so exists on the app. And I’m not about to upload 8 gigs to my photos every 10 minutes just to see if something magically became corrupted. I’ve dealt with it multiple times beforehand, but I just lost too much work to be content with this app currently. Update: even after deleting the media file and reimporting it upon export I got the same error. Please let me know how to fix so I can continue to use this app. Until then I’ll use something else that works. Update: why can’t I delete a folder??? I have too many files to delete individually and optimizing reimported them all. Please help.

Used to be Great, until Version 3 Came Out. I used to love Lumafusion. It was powerful enough that I could make really pro-level videos (sometimes up to 40 minutes long) without any problem. Then version 3 came out last year, and the app has been a buggy, unstable mess ever since then. It can barely handle small videos with constant lagging inputs, visual bugs, and occasional crashes. It’s an awful experience, and considering it worked great prior to this I don’t fully understand what this update was supposed to achieve or why the app is still, one year later, barely functional. The last straw for me came minutes ago, when I tried to load up a video I’d been working on for a couple of months and the app bricked my iPad. Like, completely killed it. I can’t even shut my iPad down to reset it. It’s stuck on the Lumafusion load screen, completely unresponsive. Considering my iPad worked completely fine ten minutes ago, I’m assuming it’s this godforsaken app. I would give this review for the iPad version of the app, but I can’t because this app is crashing so badly that I literally can’t use it.

Nice app, missing a key feature. It’s impressive that can put some nice videos together on my iPad. I like the app overall and I was happy to make the purchase. It could really use HSL though. The only way I can find that have been able to adjust individual color ranges is to use another app to create a LUT for it. It’s very time consuming. I feel like HSL is pretty standard in editing and was surprised that LumaFusion doesn’t have it. The color sliders it does have affect the color of the whole image and are fairly useless. I need to be able to, for example, adjust the saturation and hue of greenery and I can’t do that directly with the tools in LumaFusion. I’ve seen some crazy involved stuff with keys and blend modes but couldn’t figure them out and it’s just nuts to have to work so hard to desaturate green in my video.

Lost files. On an iPhone, I took 6 videos. I brought all of them into my first LumaFusion project. I started the project and moved two of them to the video timeline. The iPhone was too small a platform to work on. Then I downloaded the app to my iPad with older iOS. My iOS was outdated. So then I bought a new iPad, with iOS 11.2.6 and downloaded my data from the cloud. When I downloaded the app to the new iPad, the 2 videos that I had added to the original video timeline when the project was on my iPhone were still in my photo/video folder, but the other videos were no where to be found! They were not on my iPhone nor in the cloud. Believe me, I checked multiple times! I lost hours of video time. I read after that there is the ability to delete material on your account from LumaFusion, but I don’t know how I did. If they were deleted via the app there should be a huge warning explaining what’s happening. I don’t remember doing anything that would have deleted any videos. I hardly did anything, given I could hardly work the app on the iPhone’s small screen. Anyone else seen this behavior? I like the functionality, but at this point, I’ll only use it after I back up my data separately before dragging any files into LF.

Luma Fusion. Great program. Very capable. My primary use is to be able to do that first cut while I'm still in the field and the project is fresh in my mind. The program allows me to rough out a draft before moving it to my main computer and software for finishing. With this product I have a high quality production and post-production studio in a bag. I would recommend a couple of changes for the export. For the dialogue box that indicates the project is being written, I would have the name of the project there instead of just the files being processed. And I would also move up the step as to where the project is being saved so as to ensure it is going to the desired location before clicking the icon that starts the packaging process. Other than that, I'm very satisfied with the program.

Pay once, use forever!. Luma Fusion is worth more than its price tag; it competes well against the likes of Adobe Premiere and Sony Vegas with its simplicity and efficiency. However, it lacks some (most used/ popular) effects that you may find the former having plenty of (both visual and audio). That doesn’t mean that it isn't worth the trouble; the precision, the control, the friendly UI and the overall organized file distribution, you can’t go wrong there. It supports your everyday file formats and it can export your “movie” faster than Sony Vegas Pro, yet when it comes to editing, there are a few bugs (unfixed...?) and minor problems that may be annoying; - audio (only audio, not audio from video) can be off sync, when the file itself is 100% intact (this happens after scrolling forwards in the editing section) - preview may lag if you scroll through the editing fast and do a forceful stop to play a part of the video - it takes quite a bit to wait for the lag to go away - if the preview is played after these previous 2 events occur, the editing won’t scroll with the preview and when paused, will pause off sync to the preview (this is very complicated to explain...) - the audio waveforms (the white spikes that represent audio) aren’t precise; editing may be a bit difficult since it can be hard to do an exact cut + the audio being off sync Hope these issues get dealt with as soon as the devs read this. Thank you anyway!

Great Editor, and Infuriating. I bought this app because of the incredible potential, and because for editing it’s amazing compared to other phone video editors. But it has some infuriating, and needlessly complicating things that make no sense. Why is it so incredibly difficult to delete files? It takes up half the space on my phone, and no matter what I delete, what projects I clear, even using the “clean up” tool, it keeps taking up the same dozens of gigs. I have to spend hours on forums (which I shouldn’t have to do for something that should be so simple), and everyone else seems to be as confused as me. People give suggestions that don’t work. There is no reason at all why this hasn’t been fixed, or why it is so complicated. For me, I’ve been using this app for a couple months now, pretty much every day, and still the only way to clear the space is to totally delete the app and re-download it. If they fixed this, it would be awesome!

Top Drawer App. I always wanted Final Cut Pro. But never got it for my MacBooks. In 2019 I bought my first Iphone. Looking for the best video editing app, LumaFusion keep showing up. After doing much research on it, I finally put it on my Iphone. Knowing nothing about editing and after watching many how to do videos. In one week I was making videos that were very impressive. Green Screen was a must to have. The ease of using it is also Top Drawer. The only negative thing I can say about LumaFusion is ME. In a very short time you will be making superior quality videos expressing your imagination. And you can do that by using just a few of its many features. Don’t stop there like I did. Keep exploring its many features that will turn any of your photography into blockbuster movies if you want that. The only limit to LumaFusion, in my opinion, is you the user. Again. Knowing nothing about editing when I installed LumaFusion on my phone. I now say I am ready for the the big time. But am content with what I use it for now Ron in Los Angeles

The best video editor, but. I’ve used a lot of apps throughout the years to edit my videos. I have been using LumaFusion for about 2 weeks and am blown away. The almost limitless features are taking my videos to another level. It is a very powerful app. I love everything about it. BUT... for whatever Reason, when I try to export my project to my camera roll, LumaFusion freezes. I can export it to my drop box with no problem. The hassle is then exporting it from Dropbox to my camera roll. It started happening after I started adding more effects to my videos. The first few test video had no issue going to my camera roll. The app is designed for iPhone. It shouldn’t have this issue. Even though this issue is annoying, I would still recommend this app to anyone who wants a top quality video editor.

Switched over from Final Cut Pro. Most of my work is doing rough cut editing from short films to fashion events. I have managed to do everything I can do in Final Cut with Lumafusion having only one exception, the ability to have overlays or screening clips with clips on one another. Specifically for transitions. But other than that it’s perfection. I can run it directly from my iPhone and mirror it to my appleTV and work remotely from anywhere around the world from my phone. All of my files can be easily viewed and imported from Google drive. When I’m finished with the edit I can archive it with the entire clips or just the edits directly back into google drive. Using this app/program has entirely changed my workflow and has made working feel more like a video game over actual work effectively changing how I see my art. I am ready to work anywhere from my phone without having to lug around a laptop or tablet everywhere.

VERY Good Editor, but…. I’ve been using this app to edit my videos (and I’ve edited a lot) for a little over a year now, and I love it. Very easy to understand and it won’t take you long at all to learn all of its features. That being said, recently I’ve been running into an issue trying to render my videos. For some reason, every time I try to export my project it pulls up an error message, and I have to do the “alternate export” methods, and this has only been happening for these past few weeks for some reason. While it does seem to resolve the issue and I can export it, its been messing up the audio in my videos and makes it get REALLY loud and bassy at random times, and then will go back to normal, and it keeps happening over and over again throughout the video. Needs to be updated! I’ve done the methods where I’ve restarted my iPad and whatnot, but doesn’t help with this issue. I hope this will get fixed soon because I love using Luma Fusion! 🙏

Keeps pausing the video I’m working on. LumaFusion keeps updating the app and making it worse and worse. I paid $20 for the app, and it was amazing when I first got it. It was so easy to zoom in and out of videos. The timeline for the blue dots when I was to zoom in and out in certain sections of a clip. Now they have the whole image in the timeline instead of just the blue dots so it makes it a little difficult. Not as easy now. Please stop updating the app in these ways. It’s not needed. It was fine how it was. Also it keeps either keeps crashing or keeps pausing the video on me and once it pauses the video it takes a bit to get it to actually play my video so I can keep editing it. I can close out of it 3-4 times and it still won’t play. It’ll still stay paused. It takes time for it to play regularly again. Please fix your app. There’s not many mobile apps to choose from for video editing.

Responsive company, powerful program. Luma-Fusion is great and continues to grow in its capabilities. I appreciate that the company listens to it’s users. I have given, and received feedback regarding the capabilities and limitations of the app. I edit on a 2020 iPad Pro 12.9 and on an iPhone 6s Max for professional (Paid) and hobby (family/friends) video. Power in my pocket, power on my desktop, I am very happy with the app. There are many things I would like to see added to bring up to speed with Adobe Premier Pro on a full on desktop, or with Good old AVID, but considering the platform, and the price, this is remarkable for an editor. Update: I have been editing more complicated work for more demanding clients and for my own enjoyment lately. Yes, LumaFusion is fun to use! The tutorials are fantastic and have gotten me out of some jams. I continue to be impressed with LumaFusion’s response to my technical questions when all else fails me. It has happened more than once.

This app is extremely powerful! One thing I would recommend…. This app is powerful, the amount of stuff you can do on it still surprises me, and I’ve had it for a little over 2 years. I find Luma easy to use and fun to work with, I’ve even done stuff on Luma that you wouldn’t even think of doing on just a video editing app. I have used it for editing photos, compressing videos for faster transferring speeds, I even pared it up with Procreate and made a cool little cartoon animation! It’s truly powerful. If I were to recommend something to the creators of Luma Fusion I would say if you guys can add more editing layers. 6 layers for video plus another 6 for audio is good enough for a high quality edit, but if you figured out a way to add double or even triple the amount for just the video side, you would by far would have the most powerful editing software for iOS and iPad OS. With that many editing layers you can make complex animations with great quality. I understand the limitations of older iPhones and iPads but if you made it a feature for the M1 and M2 lineup of iPads, you would be far ahead of any video editing software on the AppStore platform. Anyways thank you for making a really solid video editing software!

App is not smooth. I'm on an iPad Pro 10.5 inch from 2017 Every other video editing app is flawless with no delay, but LumaFusion makes it nearly impossible to make a proper edit on time with the music. When you press play there's an almost second delay. And on top of that if you're trying to time it to the beats on the fly it is impossible bc when you press play sometimes the video plays but the audio is cut out for that same Almost a second. I thought it could be my iPad but I got the free VN video editor and it was BUTTERY smooth, so it's clearly something you guys are doing. Also I can't believe there's no automation?????? Second I opened up VN it has speed ramping and you can move text around the video perfectly. This app is just wayyyy to slow and I see now that only people who do simple videos can use this. I need intricate, I need simple yet complex. I want to find something good about this app but I regret buying it. I used to think iMovie was garbage, iMovie is miles better...

Kind of, sort of, almost, but not quite..... This is an excellent video editing application. It is extremely easy to use. I had it figured with VERY little tutorial. Granted, I came into it as an immensely knowledgeable intermediate, but I believe that a novice could do close to expert work with this application. HOWEVER, what This program has in capability, it lacks in variety. It has tools that are very intuitive and easy to understand but limited in its selection. For example, it’s easy to find transitions, but there aren’t very many. It’s a good thing that there are other applications capable of creating LUT’s because there aren’t many. Now, there ARE a lot of fonts. But there are not a lot of effect selections. It’s like it’s kind of good, sort of good, almost good, but not quite good. My name is Rush Little III, and I approve this message.

Excellent Program - Keep Going!. I have been doing videography and video editing for over 35 years and postproduction work is a significant part of any project. This app is truly awesome using with the new iPad Pro 2020. I use it exclusively for Livestream posts that need some tweaking and for non-intensive graphics projects However, I haven’t used it for that long but it does have some significant higher end capabilities. I hate giving away trade secrets on programs I use but this is a game changer for any producers using the latest iPad Pro 2020. There are still a lot of creative capabilities that I haven’t even had to use at this point. I have tried and used multiple other iOS video editing software. There are a couple that I use for certain capabilitiesAnd then I’ll import that segment into this app. So far, I have not found any other that will fill 80% of my needs like LumaFusion.

Please consider this app. This app is very clearly a work of great passion. It’s so feature rich and just all around such a useful piece of kit. But working well and having features is the bar to entry and many other apps do video editing well. I will always recommend this app to anyone I know looking for one reason only, the pricing model. No one is happy to pay more subscriptions. There are too many and subscription fatigue is real. I feel the Luma team has struck the right balance in the way they are pricing the app. More features are great and developers need to be compensated. I am happy to support the app on my terms and value proposition to me. Adding new features as in app purchases is fantastic. I can decide if my workflow benefits and make the purchase. I also think this creates incentive to keep pushing the app forward vs resting on laurels. I buy all the in app purchases just to support your model, because I want to see it succeed. If it went the other way, and there was a subscription, well I’d have to compare you to all the other subscription services, and to be clear the distinction and unique value add rapidly evaporate at that point. I’m glad Luma is here, and is a positive force in the Apple, marketplace and creator ecosystem and will enthusiastically advocate for them among my peers solely on the premise of no subscriptions.

So-So. This app is great however I have noticed some strange glitches. Like when I edit a clip on the timeline it shows part of the clip still there, even though its not. And all of my video in the preview window is either upside down or sideways and cropped weird but is normal when I bring it down to the timeline... which makes it hard to edit. I also feel like the controls are not very intuitive (can’t copy and paste clips to duplicate or command+c anything really). It took me a while to figure out how to copy attributes between clips (have to hit the clip button at the bottom which was a bit confusing) And hitting delete when a clip is selected on the timeline doesn’t do anything.... you have to touch the trash can. Although I like that I can still use I, O and W. But as far as editing on the iPad goes, its pretty robust. Way more features than iMovie or any other editing app I’ve tried. It’s a pretty decent way to edit on the iPad. Hoping for an update to fix the glitches though!

Impressive. This app is incredibly impressive. Very powerful so far, and has a lot of amazing features that just cannot be found on most iOS apps. It has the closest feel to editing videos on a proper computer which is amazing. Unfortunately, I did not realize that this app did not have support for importing Live Photo’s from the camera roll which is a very big issue as I rely heavily on Live Photo’s for video clips when editing travel videos. Usually on my desktop when I import the live photos a .mov of the file is present with the .jpeg. There are some apps out there (like Quik) that allow importing photos as Live Photo’s but those apps are very very limiting in what they can actually do and do not come remotely close to the power of Luma Fusion. If we can see an update roll out that can add Live Photo support then this would be a 5 star app and possibly the greatest iOS app on the market currently.

So many bugs.. Why continue to add new features when old features are not fully developed. I continue to attempt to edit voice on here and constantly it will skip back to an edit once another one is made. So essentially every time I cut a clip it jumps back to the same place for absolutely no reason. If you want to use a plug-in then it automatically removes any panning you may have done and can entirely silence the audio. The GUI for an iPhone has made landscape mode almost unviewable if held in portrait mode. It defaults to an iPhone specific aspect ratio but I can’t make my own default so I have to switch it every single time. Transitions have never been updated since day one even when their whole selection of effects could be made into stock and standard transitions. The High Pass filter only reduces by about 50% of what it states when compared to PC based DAWs. I want to love this APP and keep using it but it is becoming very challenges to find reasons to use it first anymore.

THESE DEVELOPERS ARE GODS!. Short and sweet: this is the best video editing app out there, end of story. Basically mini Final Cut Pro but on the go. I never knew my iPhone 7 had so much processing power!!! Best $20 ever spent! Cheers to developers like this who are in tune with their base and work relentlessly to keep improving an already amazing app! UPDATE: Still the best app I have ever owned and the only one I have written a review for. I have it now on my iPad Pro and boy oh boy does it FLY through 160mbps footage! More than half of my projects are on Luma now instead of FCPX. I have recommended this app to dozens of friends who all love it. IT JUST WORKS. I would love to meet the developers because they just NAILED it!! I would pay easily $100 for this app. UPDATE 2: version 2.3 just dropped and oh my is LF better than ever now, I feel wrong having only paid $20 for it 2 years ago because it adds so much value to my workflow. Get this app.

Always improving, great editing app.. I bought LumaFusion a year ago.. I used it on my basic iPad. I loved the software, but the lightning port was making the transfer of video files really impractical. I got the latest iPad mini with usb c port. Now LumaFusion works as it should. If you are familiar with Final Cut Pro, this works in a similar way. Actually I like better how LumaFusion can paste adjustments on multiple clips at once, replacing the prior corrections, unlike FCPX. I can send edits to Final Cut, as an xml file, with the media (it is a paid additional feature). So far so good. The iPad mini is very portable and fast. The screen is a bit small, I wish the fonts in LumaFusion were a bit larger. Now I can edit also with media stored directly on an external SSD. I wish LumaFusion had better file management, like revealing in which folders a clip on the timeline resides. There are sometimes some issues with compatibility of an exported video to a folder when uploaded on instagram. But if I export to Apple Photos app, and then to instagram, it works fine. Apple Files app does not show the file extension, so it may be a bit of a hassle to tell the video from the photo files when selecting what to import. In any case, great software.

Great Video Editing App! Just one thing missing.... First of all, if you’re someone new to video editing, I gotta say, this app is great and straight forward with many things to explore. For everyone like me, who comes from Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro this is the best I’ve seen out there similar to those two power houses. Sure, this can’t beat those two, but for the price you get a lot that you get from AE and PR. I make edits as a hobby using AE, of animes, etc. So the one thing I’m used to using and love to do is have key frame transitions. I know that we have them here, but the one thing lacking is graphs. I typically use the graphs to make the transition, for example zoom in, go fast at the point I’d like to zoom in rather than it be at the same speed zooming in the entire transitions, as it does not look fast and keep the beat of the song up. Over all though, great app if you’re not in my place and are just looking for a good overall video editor that does most of everything you want it to do without the through the roof prices of other software out there. Hope this helps anyone who’s looking into this! 👌🏻

Exceptional App, Functionality, Documentation & Support. This app does so much, and for a much lower price than one would expect (especially in comparison to other products). Great reference guide & videos for learning. You’ll definitely want to absorb some of that guidance before trying a project, or you won’t know what to do, looking at the screen. But once you read or watch the basic parts, it makes perfect sense. It also helps that within any of the screens, you can press on the settings and/or “?” icon, and it will label all the items/functions showing on the screen. Also, it’s easy to get to the Reference Guide via the Settings button. I’m so impressed by the support; really knowledgable and helpful people, often going above and beyond (and giving very comprehensive answers, and never making you feel dumb). I love that I can purchase this app for a one-time price, without a subscription, and with almost everything included. (There are some options for in-app purchases, but I think that’s just for 3rd party stuff.) I’ve only had this for a short time, and my experience with creating and editing films is limited, yet I was able to create, edit & export a project even before I thought I’d put in enough study to pull it off. (It was easy to refer to the Reference Guide as needed.) I highly recommend!!

The more I use this the more I like it!. Like the title says, I keep liking this more and more. Previously I had been using iMovie on a 2 core Mac Mini which worked fine until it was time to “compile” the movie. It takes about 40 minutes to “compile” a 7ish minute movie on that thing. The other drawback was that It wasn’t very mobile. With an iPad, Luma Fusion, and a little learning I can almost unbelievably do the same tasks that I could on the Mac just about anywhere. I feel that this is a much better setup overall and the app is only $20 which I don’t think is enough, but they have an in app purchase of $10 a month or (I think) $70 a year for royalty free music, backgrounds, stock footage and some other stuff that seems well worth the price, especially when you consider the convenience of it being right there in the app.

Add Color Curves and Masking. Color Grading: I the fact that this app is very versatile. However i feel like i spent $20 on an app that does that same stuff iMovie does. If i’m editing on a plane and i don’t have my Mac, it’s annoying not to be able to properly color grade things. It will either have too much contrast or there’s just no way to get a Horror movie Color grade without it being too dark. Masking Tools: It is so annoying when i cannot Mask out shapes of people. i can only crop the video and not cut around the actor frame by frame. If i could do this; i could film this such as wire removal. It would make my job a lot easier. I love this app, but it’s hard to edit complicated projects without getting frustrated. If i don’t have my computer, i cannot do anything else but leave it the way it is. Add 3D Layers: If you can somehow put in 3D layers, i love you. Having 3D layers and Masking would make it more like After Effects.

Editing Needs improvement. You can’t select multiple clips in the timeline. For example, to move them. how horrible this is, you have no idea, but trust me, this is lame. You can’t scrub to adjust what portion a clip is showing (ie keeping the in and out points fixed). You can’t have a clip adjust speed to fit the space you’re trimming to (in audio editing apps it’s typical to be able to put a clip in time stretch mode, so the audio fills or shrinks to fit the spot, it makes sense to do this with video too) Search is horrendous, it can’t even search the current folder of a usb stick, so you’ll be using the Apple Files app a ton. Lumafusion should offer a mixdown workflow, so you could work nondestructively, but with effectively more tracks, an infinite number, obviously. Basically, have those excess tracks be other projects, and if you need to edit them, have the project load for work, then return you when done. You can do this manually, but it should be part of the interface. Like say you want 9 clips on screen at once, easy enough, you have a project for 4 of them, export it, import it into the main project, add it to 5, so it takes up your 6, but one of them is really 4. But it should be integrated into the interface.

Thank you and a few requests. 1) I just paid for your new multicam addon, even though I don’t think I’ll ever use it except to sync externally recorded audio. I did it to support you. Please, keep it up and don’t go rental model. I don’t mind paying for addons every now and then to keep your programmers afloat. 2) Please let me select multiple clips and add transitions for all of them at the same time. Not letting me do this goes against your moto (i.e. it becomes boring and repetitive otherwise). 3) Thanks for the histograms, I appreciate you introduced those, but they are not that useful without more powerful color correction tools. By this I mean color vs. brightness, color vs saturation, etc. 2d histograms where you can use an eye dropper to define a color range to modify within it like Davinci Resolve does. Of couse, you can choose to do it another way, but please, provide a more powerful set of color tools. 4) How about a white balance slider? 5) How about dehaze and texture filters? 6) I want to be able to color correct clips to match for example the sky in each. As an example, I may have one that is log and needs a lut, the other may be regular 10 bit rec709, another may be an hlg clip another D-cinelike; all dropped on the same hlg timeline. For this I would like to put two clips side by side and would like better color tools. No matter what, thank you and keep it up!

Best Mobile Video Editor. LumaFusion goes beyond any other Mobile video app I have either used or heard of. I think what makes this app better than other mobile video editors, is its ability to give the user so much creativity with little restrictions. I love the key-framing ability and even though the masking is limited to a rectangle/square, the app still allows you to use your creativity and get around that limitation. Although I do suggest working on a masking tool to make LumaFusion even better. Lastly a camera movement tracker would be awesome, I think if the app had a masking tool, and a camera movement/object tracker, the app would be complete and dominate over all mobile video editors for A Long Long Time. As a programmer though I understand that creating such things takes time and is not easy, so for now, LumaFusion is and remains the best. —-“motion tracker would be great”.

Good APP w/ BAD updates. This Video editing "app" has been my main editor for 3 years now, before Luma Fusion I even used their previous software Pinnacle Studio. Now I really do enjoy this software bringing computer grade editing onto the iphone basically. Making it an all in one, but I do expect a $30 app to be high quality given the average ios App is .99¢ or free. My main gripe is there aren't many bug fixes, only major updates, and by major updates I mean updates that add major bugs with some minor new features, and also remove other features I've grown accustom to. The latest one being tapping on a file in the timeline selects it tapping on it again goes to the beginning. This was completely removed which makes me have to relearn a portion of the software. Also the bugs make somethings impossible without learning work arounds for them. Sometimes I feel the developers don't actually have testers to give feedback.

Slow Export with Stabilizer. This app is fantastic in all that it does but the one feature that I use all the time in any video editing software is the stabilization feature. For some reason the stabilization when applied within this piece of software causes the video preview frame rate to drop significantly. Then when I go to export the video with the stabilization applied, the final export time takes a VERY long time for a roughly 6 minute video. When I turn the stabilizer off, the export time speeds up exponentially. I am not sure if all of this is by design or if it is a limitation of the iPhone hardware OR if it is an issue with the program It’s self. I first tried all of this on my iPhone 13 Pro then tried it on the new iPhone 15 Pro and the results are the exact same on both, stuttering video preview and very slow exports with the stabilization active. I know that export times won’t be anything close to that of my MacBook Pro but it still seems quite slow for the duration of video that I am working with in this case. Could one of the developers chime in on this by chance and give me some insight as to what might be going on?

App for Getting Videos Done. Can you make the file manager a popup instead of a docked panel? This app is impressive. They have streamlined the workflow to the point where I prefer using this app over most desktop software. In fact, I use this to arrange music too (astonishingly it has AUv3 support!). These guys have continually poured work into this app. It’s also got one of the more sane file managers I’ve seen in an app. It’s got excellent export options. I’ve edited videos of I think an hour in length with it, no problem. The suite of effects is really impressive and you can do all kinds of compositing with it too, such as chroma key/green screen and blending modes. It supports transparency in video and has full titling capabilities. The only thing it doesn’t have is ease functions (ease in, ease out type motion smoothing) which I sort of found surprising given how much they have added. It would just make it perfect. Thanks for the work that goes into this.

Some crucial bugs that need to be fixed.. I decided to use Lumafusion as my main editor program a few years ago. But there still some annoying bugs that need some attention: 1. Audio wont instantly play for a few microseconds when editing. (Those details are very important to synchronize some audio effects on your project.) It is annoying and after many times I don’t noticed those microseconds errors after rendering the project. That isn’t very productive. 2. Rendering portrait sometimes just stretch the video widely. And it happens randomly, even many times after continues trying. (I noticed that it happens with 1080xx (iPhone preview) and sometimes with 4k. It happens less with 2k resolution. 3. Missing audio after rendering. Several times, I have render my projects and noticed missing audio effects, voice or even music. There are many others bugs, but can’t remember them at this moment. 4. Off-synced audio tracks after rendering.

Auv3 plug-ins repeatedly crashing and not coming back! Help!. Every time I use my noise-suppression plugin, Brusfri, and when I use my de-esser plugin, DeEsserFX, they crash, and do not fix themselves. I have tried force-quitting and restarting LumaFusion, powering off, waiting, and then restarting my iPad, and I have tried making duplicates of the project file. Nothing works, at-least not permanently. Anything that does appear to work only fixes the problem for a few seconds, then the plugins go back to being dead and non-functional. This is not the fault of the plugins because they work flawlessly in the DAW I use, Cubasis 3. Please fix this problem ASAP; my project depends on it, and is due in just 3 days. I would also love to have full-track audio editing, so that I did not have to have a separate instance of a plugin running for each video clip, especially in projects with a lot of micro-cuts, leading to many, many individual clips.

Export Issues. I’ve been using LumaFusion for about a year on both the IPad Pro 2nd Gen 512 GB & IPad Pro 3rd Gen 1TB. While the speed, portability and ease of use of the IPad Pro and LumaFusion combo makes for an attractive alternative to my laptop and Adobe software, there are real issues with the reliability of the export function. As long as I am exporting videos shorter than 5m things generally go smoothly whether it’s 1080 or 4K. BUT if I’m attempting something with a longer run time it’s a real crap shoot. I’ve consulted with LumaFusion support and followed their advice but to no avail. Generally once I encounter an export issue I’m forced to delete the project and/or app and start over......... Obviously this is a HUGE issue. If you are producing short clips I recommend LumaFusion for its speed and ease of use. If you intend to produce longer projects then you risk loosing your work.

Audio Keeps Clipping. (I use the iPad Pro 2018 and both the iPad and the app's software are up to date) I've been having problems with the audio in my videos. I thought it was just this one song i was trying to use at first but after trying several different songs, sound effects and other types of audio files, I keep having the same problem. The audio sounds fine when I'm editing in the app but every time i save a video to my camera roll I notice clipping in the audio when i listen to it. I've tried downloading the video with the volume turned down lower on every audio file in the video, I've tried downloading the video in different Audio Quality's but nothing to works. The only way I've gotten the audio to sound good is if i save the video with no audio, go into iMovie and edit in the audio in, then save that video. This makes things very difficult and annoying for me considering that most videos i create are music videos and/or videos with lots of sound effects. So if someone's got some advice or knows how to help me that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Another Great Editing App, But. The app overall is nothing like the other editing apps on mobile so far. Sure, there will be a couple of bugs here and there like the app crashes once opened, the timeline sometimes doesn’t match the video, images that are cropped can be corrupted and etc. If these bugs are being focused on all the time and always fixed that’s how much the creators care about this app!

Please Read!. I love this app, and it is definitely the most powerful one for the iOS AppStore. Anyways, there are a lot of comments along the line of this... To make this app Better, you should add 3D and 2D tracking. This would completely fulfil mine and many other people’s hopes for an iOS video editor. I know this could be hard, but iOS 12 is coming with some AR technologies that could be applied. This would make the app soo much better (not saying that it isn’t now) Another thing to add is custom cropping. This would really help in many scenarios where instead of having a rectangle, you can crop around the shape needed. Thanks for making my video making experience be at the highest peak right now

Makes editing 4k fun!. This app is unbelievable and inspirational. I’ve been searching for a way to edit dslr and drone footage quickly and easily. I’ve never understood why it had to be so hard and cumbersome on desktops. Software seems either too simple to use and misses out on features or has everything you want but requires beefcake hardware and expensive monthly subscriptions. Then there’s LumaFusion. It’s intuitive, simple and sophisticated, utterly brilliant. Using this app takes out the challenges of editing and leaves just creativity. I’m now pushing for better shots, looking for better angles and making better videos thanks to LumaFusion. PLEASE keep up the great work and awesome updates. I look forward to what you add in the future.

Just 1 major bug that annoys me. I love LumaFusion. I have been using it pretty much since it’s inception. I have learnt and grown with the software as it has developed. Of course nothing is perfect and there are features that I would love to have editing wise. Such as masking and blending modes and a few more audio options. But these are all features that most creators can live without. All in all great video editing software for any iPad, not just the Pro. However there is 1 major bug that is annoying me. Now I don’t know if it’s just my camera reading to the card wrong or the LumaFusion not reading the data correctly. But sometimes after importing my media, the audio waveforms don’t appear on the clip that is in the timeline. This isn’t a consistent issue either. Sometimes the waveform is there. Sometimes it’s not. Now it is possible that it is my camera reading to the card since other cameras I have don’t really have the issue; but at the same time, it could be something worth looking into. Other than that a great product well worth the price.

What to do if prompted for Apple ID on M1. Always been a Great app on iPad but noticed it may put up a LumaFusion branded dialog on an M1 Mac that prompts for your Apple ID and password to log into Apple Media Services. If it does this, go to App Store, log out your ID and then log in again. Thanks for the prompt developer response on this issue.

Huge Fan. I have been using LumaFusion for a long time now and find it perfect for my editing purposes. Lumafusion supports the following ProRes formats: Apple ProRes 422 Apple ProRes 422LT Apple ProRes 422HQ Apple ProRes 4444 (including transparency) Apple ProRes 422 Proxy making it the most up to date video editing application for iPads. Can’t ask for more than that.

Good, but lacks key features. LumaFusion is a good editing app for mobile, however lacks the features that I’ve come to expect from a desktop editing software such as Final Cut Pro. My mobile editing experience would be improved if LumaFusion had histograms, speed ramping, video stabilisation, and most importantly allowing users to speed up videos by more than 6 times by giving a custom control. I would appreciate it these basic features were incorporated into the app through an update. As it stands, I believe the omission of these features in an almost $50 app is UNACCEPTABLE!

Frame aspects. I love lumafusion and have been using it for a few years but there is one problem I have when recording a video is that none of the frame aspect options fit my iPad Air two frame aspects. I just think that it would be a good idea if you included all frame aspects or if we are able to customise our frame aspect according to our device From, User

Best keeps getting better!. LumaFusion is a marvel. The only truly professional editing app that a child can use (I teach it to adults and children) and continues to be updated. They latest joy in opening it is XML export. It automatically opens and sets up media and timeline in FCPX. Of course some say “but why would you bother?” Only answer is if you want to access extra effects and do a serious color grade with scopes. Here’s hoping scopes will come the the app. Best purchase you will ever make!

I sold my MacBook Pro. A great video editing app was all that was missing in my iPad workflow. With all the new features that have been added to Lumafusion in the last 18 months, I’ve been able to ditch my MacBook Pro and FCP, and go full-time with my iPad. I can’t recommend this app enough!

iPad video editing at its best. Best professional video editing app for iPad, and I have been through a lot. I can’t fault it. Full of features and quality options, allowing me to create without having to change between different apps to get the effect I want. The creators have really thought about the creation process when developing it. Totally worth the purchase, and the fact that it isn’t subscription is a big bonus.

It’s amazing but I wish it had more. This is an amazing editing app and I love it so much but I do wish it had some more features such as “new sizes:YouTube size and stuff” and a “glitch effect” section, that would make it worth how much it actually is! A glitch effect section would make it a lot easier rather then adding a heap of layers to change the colour and muck around with everything to make a glitch effect, pls add this

Great work but beginners need slower help. Highly recommend this app ,issues for really really beginners u have to have 123 in steps to even the point they have there first iPad Pro ,learning everything slowly ,extremely hard for first time modern technology,new iPad Pro ,and this amazing app, Just give a beginners from no where 1 you no nothing coarse on how to even start I don’t even no aTV settings these days,2 you nothing on iPad Pro, I had difficulty as I couldn’t find even my downloaded music let alone google photos don’t even no were to start Make a 1 2 3 4 You are the best 👍🙈 Great stuff but

Please add more fonts. Amazing editing app and easily the best on the iPad. But one thing it doesn’t have is great fonts. There is a whole lot of fonts but there just isn’t amazing ones like luckiest guy or short stack or any other ones. The more cartoony ones are great and really any cool ones that aren’t just plain boring would be good.

Great app but the preview is terrible!. I love this app but recently the preview has been driving me crazy. I literally can’t edit a 2 minute video to a soundtrack despite having no effects or colour grading because the preview glitches constantly. Tried everything to resolve the issue including clearing caches and memory and setting preview speed and restarting etc. but now I’m just giving up because it’s impossible. Please fix this as without a working preview the app is useless!!

Good but no colour wheels. Needs colour wheels and value sliders for controlling lift, gamma and gain. Needs colour/contrast curve editor. Without these it’s not particularly useful as a mobile video editor. In response to the developer feedback that it includes these: the sliders aren’t specific or precise enough, the levels are connected so I can’t crush blacks without affecting highlights, the colour wheel is only for overall tint rather than separate shadows, mids and highlights. If all of this is possible then the interface doesn’t give enough visual understanding to do anything precisely, without stacking a bunch of corrections on top of each other, or relying on LUTs for any colour grading. 3 colour wheels and a contrast levels graph is all it would take, or just a contrast/colour levels graph.

Worth it!. I initially thought the app was a bit pricey, especially given that you don’t get a test version, but I love it!! I use the app on my iPhone/iPad and it’s so easy compare to other apps! The only improvement is have more royalty free music, or at least give us the option to buy music to use for clips!

This is the best!!!. So I used this app for about 4 months and got really used to it and after a while I started making really difficult videos and then started editing people’s videos making me 230$ thank you for this opportunity

AMAZING!. It doesn't have all of the features of an app like FCP, but it has all the features you need to get the job done! and the timeline is simply amazing, the power of track based editing, with the speed of the magnetic timeline, you guys got really creative with this one, as you can still perfrom traditional editing techniques, but you don't have sync problems all the time and gaps that somehow appeared from nowhere! Well worth the price and then some

Video Speed. I love LumaFusion and has greatly improved my editing and video production. My only gripe and enhancement request would be the ability to speed up video clips even faster. It has always been limited to 6x only. Thanks

Loving it but tutorials really lacking big time. Love what I can do now on my iPad, very much appreciate what you have given us, am sure that I will master this app eventually, thanks for the prompt reply, I am looking forward to creating lots of good professional looking videos from now on :)

Absolutely Amazing. This is absolutely amazing. The insanity on the pricing and what it provides. It costs what I pay a month for Premie on a PC and does everything that I use on Premier. The new multi cam is much faster a much easier to use than Premier with great grading similar to Red Giant but part of the package. For speed and portability, this app is on a level of its own. Cheers

Incredible speed on iPad Pro. A very capable, feature rich editor for a mobile app. Probably the most notable benefit is the speed. Easily glide through 4K footage and edit with ease without the irritating fans spinning up on your MBP. A beautiful, silent workflow. For a larger view, connect via USB C to your 4K monitor with no loss of performance. There are some times when I miss the features offered by my editor on the MBP, but when you consider the price, performance and portability of LumaFusion on the iPad Pro, it really is a very compelling solution. Looking forward to continued development of this app. Recommended.

The best iphone app for editing. If you edit on your phone and don’t have time to get to a computer look no further this is absolutely by far the best app I’ve seen and know about there have been one or two little glitches but they work through the problem and it is fantastic especially looking forward to version two about to be released worth every cent

Fantastic app. I’ve used editing software for a while worth hundreds of dollars and while they have their role, much of what I do now is for online viewing and this app is so good for the money. It’s lightning fast on my new iPhoneX and even my old iPad Air is running it ok. Renders quick and so stuttering while editing like my my new $3000 windows laptop does! Great work. Some improved colour correction re histogram and scope would be good!

Long standing bug, reverse clip does not work. Reverse clip flat out doesn’t work and has never worked on my iPad Pro, and it’s not just me. The popup that says “reversing video” which is meant to show progress appears for about 1/5th of a second and disappears. The audio is reversed successfully, but the video is black. This bug has been a problem for around 2 years now and it’s deeply frustrating anytime I need to do it, because it breaks my workflow entirely. Sorry for the bad review but it is just so, so frustrating. A quick google search finds other reports of people having the same issue so I know it’s not just me.

Finally and real pro video editing app for iPad!. I love this software! Finally a pro video editing app on the iPad, runs so stable and no rendering! It would be great to see more fxs in future updates 3d fxs (not more LUTS and filters) but actual 3d fxs similar to Boris Continuum and Red Giant Universe, and also it would be great to be able to move drag/move key frames, and also more video and audio tracks. Keep up the great work!

Good value. Lumafusion features a generous repertoire of intuitive editing tools. The only feature missing which prevents me from switching to Lumafusion full time is the ability to do speed ramping. Also there doesn’t seem to be a way to organise projects into folders. This makes sorting through projects feel a bit messy once you’ve made lots of projects. All in all this is a very capable editing app for a very reasonable price.

Amazing app. I've been using this app for over a year now and it's spectacular. I would love for an update with movement easing settings though. It's painful to select every single keyframe to set how you would want objects to move, for example bouncing or ease in. This will save a lot of time will be easier to use.

Jim. Has anyone experienced LF crashing since upgrade to 4? It has crashed on my IPad Pro a number of times - never happened prior to upgrade. Seems to crash when editing individual pics/videos?

Change preset duration of all still frames?. Just bought v. 3.1. You preset all imported still photos to 2 sec. duration. But I want to make video using still photos, each of duration 0.1 sec. Is there a way to change the preset so that all imported photos are automatically set to the shorter duration? (iMovie allows this.) I can see that I can manually change each photo manually one at a time but this is very slow.

Beginner friendly and powerful. I’ve had some holiday footage gathering dust for years and decided it was finally time to stitch it all together. I’ve used iMovie a little in the past, but it doesn’t support external storage on an iPad. Some googling led me to LumaFusion. I was a little put off by the price but jumped in to give it a go. What a great piece of software. I followed the tutorial videos on Lumas website which gave me all the information I needed to get started. Within no time I was pumping out my first video. There are tons of additional features I look forward to learning and using for future videos. Performance is amazing on my iPad Mini 6 with external Samsung T5 SSD. The UI is buttery smooth and video exporting is rapid. Worth the price.

So quick with pro capabilities. I have been using Lumafusion for years, it does miss some high end features, so if you videos are very intense with transitions and sound design with double digit tracks required it may fall short, but for most video content it copes easily. Where it wins over the major editors it is fast, it renders quickly 4k and 1080p and is easy to compile a video and most things can be done on this platform once you are experienced.

2 years in. I’ve been using Luma for about 2 years now and edit primarily on my phone. Being able to edit anywhere anytime is awesome and can vouch for how good this app is. When I tell people I edit on my phone they don’t believe me until I show them.

Wow. So good. Just edited a video for the first time using LumaFusion and what a breeze. I started out watching one of the tutorials but after 30 seconds just jumped in the deep end and started using the app and what a bunch of fun it was. This app is so easy to use and if you make a mistake, it’s so easy to correct it. I was using Go Pro Splice before and this just runs circles around it. So intuitive and so fun, it takes the tedious out of editing. I wish I had this app 6 months ago.

Powerful and intuitive. There are some good, simple video editing apps for iOS but this is the one too choose if you are looking for something more advanced. Despite the number of features available, it’s still very easy to use.

Makes my iPad feel like a laptop. It is quick and responsive and is great for any part time video editor it has multiply option such as speed ramp and green screen which both work well

Liking it so far. Just started using it. Editing is smooth on m1 ipad. I find capcut a little more intuitive, but i dont fancy giving so much personal info and unlimited access to my device to that company. There are a couple if features I’d like to see added such as the ability to go to the next and previous clips from the clip edit screen, and a horizon straighten feature (these could be there but i can’t find them)😅 I plan to use this as my video editor across iphone, ipad pro m1 and macbook air m1. I like the ability to connect and import content from my cloud storage.

Best app hands down. I have been using Luma fusion for almost 2 yrs and I have never looked back. The interface is perfect and easy to understand. Pls keep up the good guys. I have told most of my film maker friends and they all love it and are using it. It’s cheap but can compare with the expensive softwares. Keep the updates coming and pls add more layers as we use the 6 layers so quickly

Amazing… just on issue for me though. Great program, one issue though, I make simpler “one take” videos of musicians. I film the video on the ipad and record the audio on my computer, I then import the audio to LumaFusion and edit the two together but I can never get the audio 100% matched up with the video because of the snap editing. If I could make sharper more precise edits or a “free drag mode” in a future update that would be VERY handy. Besides that amazing program, especially for the price point!

Worth the money but...... It’s definitely worth the money as you can edit 4K videos in your iOS device but I wish you guys could add vfx effects to it as well. And there is also a minor bug when I switch between different apps in my iPad 7th generation, my edits suddenly disappears and then I have to start again. So Kindly fix that issue, would be very helpful. Otherwise, the app works just fine. Thanks

Simple Elegant, yet extremely powerful. 2023 - Simple Elegant and powerful - it’s FCPX for iOS. The stuff this editor does is amazing If you’re into video production this is fast and yet powerful in a simple package. Key framing and multi track plus more Export to FCPX Fully supported with ongoing development and fantastic tutorials on how to use this - Colour scopes including skin tone line - video Stabilisation control built in - access to music and stock footage (story blocks) requires subscription - audio controls - import LUTs - etc etc

Powerful video creation. Just wanted to add my positive comment to the many previous. If there is a video creation tool and editor better for the iPad, I don’t know what it is. Many thanks for making this app available for such a reasonable price.

Just.. WOW. The price is justified, that's no over statement.. Okay, I first need to breath deeply into a brown paper bag. This app is AMAZING!!! It costs a lot, yes, but that's because you get a lot. You can even save out custom-made transitions which you have created yourself with keyframes !!! Did I mention keyframes! Yes ! You can animate anything with them, special effects and all! You can import in your own fonts, handle 4K 60fps footage. Just. WoW! Okay, LumaTouch, please please, your app needs image masking, trajectory lines, image sequence (importing a zip might be best for iOS sake), sound scrubbing & please please, don't ditch iOS 10 support, I got too many apps that will never run on iOS 11 which I don't want to let go of.

It’s good, but file saving is an issue. Ipad don’t have much storage. Having to spend a long time deleting things off my ipad every time i want to export a file to my external drive is really frustrating and stops me from wanting to use the app each time i do. It is a great app though. But this is a big flow stopper.

Wow!. I should have asked my wife for purchase approval earlier. This app is amazing. Pay for the app and you get all the features. You can do everything in this app. I’ve tried many apps and had always gone back to iMovie but no more. Very fair price for what you get.

Brilliant on the New iPad Mini. I have always had a love-hate relationship with this App, Struggled to use it on the iPhone, (interface) loved it on the iPad pro 12” but lugging the bigger iPad meant I couldn't spend as much time as I would have liked, I recently moved to the new 2019 iPad Mini, this has been a complete game changer, this app in conjunction with the tag featuring in the files app and iOS drag and drop, the smaller and more powerful iPad Mini with Luma fusion creates the ultimate mobile video production system.

Brilliant.. Like others have stated it feels like a desktop on your ipad. This app is very fast, and easy to use with great features. 2 things would be nice. 1-When importing clips from photos, keep the folder structure, because i have lots off albums, you have to scroll a lot to import stuff you want. 2-the projects could also benefit from a folder structure to keep things organised. Please don’t take this feedback as negative. Because the app is absolutely Awesome...... Fantastic work with this app.....

So much better than iMovie. My first Luma Fusion project on my (now pretty old) iPad Air 128GB has been a 47-minute video incorporating many video clips and still photos. With a newer model iPad I may have been able to create and save the complete video whole, but with my old iPad limitations I found I needed to create two segments, save them to the Camera Roll, then join them. Not a great problem, and it worked a treat. Fantastic control over multiple video and audio tracks. A great feature is the app’s ‘forgiveness’ if you make mistakes and need to ‘rewind’. Well worth its price. Strongly recommended.

Ok but Unintuitive and Clunky. LumaFusion is one of the better video editing Apps but has some unintuitive and clunky ways of doing things which is really annoying and frankly, unacceptable. Can’t even select multiple clips and shorten them to the same frame length, that is just plain stupid.

Best Video Editor for mobile devices. It has all the tools I need to make and edit videos. It has different transitions and tools you could use to adjust your clips.

Totally useless. It apps a fantastic editor. And yet it’s totally useless. If it exported the videos you were working on, it would be perfection. But nothing I ever work on can export. I e tried everything they recommend to fix it and still nothing. Don’t waste your money

Everyday it surprises me !. Started 3 months ago some editing process with my Ipad, and each time I’m using it, I’m surprised how capable is this piece of software. Rare are the moments where I feel limited by its features, and always surprised it supports so well complex needs or situations. Works flawlessly between Ipad and MacOs, and on top of that, Final Cut Pro export addon is a life savior ! Next feature required: a proper shape/mask tool, and it will be perfect ! Keep up the good work !

Used to be good, but not any more…. It used to be really good. Lately, whenever I put both photos and videos there, the color changed so strange. It only works for either all photos or all videos but not mix.

Pas de Manuel en français. C’est dommage

Always something wrong. I don’t understand how this can be called an amazing app….theres ALWAYS a different bug each day. It was bugging for a while, then got fixed, then back to bugging every day. If it not just freezing every 2 seconds, the playback don’t work. Maybe you’ll need to close and restart app 5- 6 times in 30 minutes session if your lucky and its not more. Every new update, the app gets even worse then before. When it works, its amazing, thats the key word, WHEN. I still have faith and will change my review if it gets fixed, but seriously, the support team need to get on top of it.

Best video editor for the iPad Pro. Simple, intuitive. Very easy to learn and use.

This app is OP. iMovie who? I dont know her. This app is so amazing… like there’s not a single thing it doesn’t have 10/10

Needs more effects. CapCut has more effects in the free version then Lumafusion does in total so it makes it hard to make cool things with it

Yep hits 100% for a app worth every penny. Been using it for 2years with free updates with better tools and bug fixes along the road , easy to use for beginners to advanced editing , with tons of tutorials on YouTube . Amazing new tools from the developers that just make your dream into a reality, with so many plug ins from other apps to work on your projects , Don’t believe me go on YouTube and watch a few videos . Big props to the devs . Thank you .

iPad & M1 Mac!. Awesome that it supports both M1 Mac's and iPad, love it

It’s been years since LumaFusion came into my world. With M2 on my iPad Pro (12.9) running in the background. LumaFusion is Rock Solid. Dependable in the field where all my filming is made. I have Stopped using Adobe Suite 16 years ago and I have never looked back. LumaFusion and Serif’s Photo are amazing together–keeps getting better with the upgrades—like Adobe did 20 years ago. The developers are quick to help and fix minor bugs—that’ll be included with the new release. The best combo creating tools this lens-based artist would want. Thank-you LumaFusion!!

Was a great app until. I loved this app but until now… there is this stupid glitch where if you try to reverse a clip, it shows nothing just a black screen or the previous clip that was not reversed. Even if I put it on the same timeline it will show black screen. Shake my head need to fix and address this issue!

Awesome. This app is literally the iOS version of TechSmith’s Camtasia.

The best, not for lazy people. This is the best editing app hands down, I couldn’t believe there where bad reviews. After reading the bad reviews it’s obvious these people are lazy and unoriginal. You can do whatever you want with this app, full creative control! You create your film, not the app, it’s just a tool that’s makes your vision possible!

Absolute game changer. Coming from KineMaster I was hesitant on switching because of the 40 dollar price difference for the software alone but after using it for a couple hours I can safely say money well spent! It has super easy and intuitive design and the add on storybox assets are absolutely fantastic there’s thousands of genuinely high quality tracks sound effects and video and photo clips! Again the price increase between the KineMaster and luma fusion absolutely scared me (one being 7 bucks a month and the other being 15 on top the 45 dollar price) but again I was wrong it’s absolutely fantastic if you’re looking for something that feels streamlined and fun to use I absolutely recommend and suggest bitting the bullet with this app you absolutely won’t regret it

Good app but I’ve been really frustrated by that lately. Google Drive blocks the app because LumaFusion doesn’t align with Google’s security standards. I can no longer access my files.

Crashing - help!. I’ve been using luma for a while now and it’s great. I don’t know if this is a new bug but the app gets incredible buggy when I try to edit a close to 2 hr video with two audio tracks (nothing else), the app crashes, won’t play my timeline (the play button is dark grey and literally wont work when I touch it), and is incredibly glitchy when working on this larger scale product. Every time I open the app, it takes like 10 minutes to go into my chosen video, and buttons and timelines scrubbing becomes generally unresponsive. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the app, losing all my progress, and nothing changes. I’m using the iPad Pro 2018 which has incredible performance so I’m not sure why this is happening.

I can't work properly. Every time, I add more video to my creation, lumafusion stops working and I always to optimize and consolidate it every time I add a video of (No matter the size of that video, it can be 30 sec or 1 min) and it will bugg and stop working. I can't get in the flow of the creation. I'm trying to create my vlog but with lumafusion, I can't get anything done.. It just disapointing because I paid for this apps, I think I will choose monthly paid and go with Premiere Pro and hope I can get my work done and publish my creation on Youtube

Unintuitive. I’ve been doing light editing for years with apps like Premiere and Final Cut Pro. After reading some positive reviews I thought I’d give Luma Fusion a try so I could do some editing on the fly with the iPad. Boy, what a mistake. After a few hours of exploring the program I closed the app and deleted it. It’s just not worth the frustration. If you’ve edited before with pro apps like Premiere you’ll likely find the interface for this app impossible to navigate. Save your money.

Has no special effects at all.... great for color grading tho:)

Awesome Video Editor. I used to use this program on my M2 Ipad but I recently moved to a Macbook Pro and was super hapy to see I can use it on the Mac too! It's perfect for editing for Youtube and I feel that its honestly one of the fastest editors around for that purpose. Two things that I'd love to be worked on for the mac version are: sometimes voiceover crashes, and please allow the video preview pane to be on another display, this was a feature on the ipad but it doesn't seem to have made it to the Mac. Awesome app though saved me from buying FCP!

Love This App. I love that it is a one time purchase and affordable. Thank you! I worked with Adobe Premier and Camtasia before and this app allows me to easily create videos on the go. I have not even used all the features it has to offer. The app is fairly intuitive and after a few easy tutorials I was ready to work. I WISH there was a transition for text to appear as typing (I had to animate this effect a few times), but other than that I was able to do everything else I needed to. I don’t understand the Audio editing section. I am not an audio editor. I WISH there was an automated feature to optimize audio for speech and remove noise. All I can do with confidence is make the audio more or less audible (raise/lower decibels). Other than that, I find this app perfect for creating Animatics and YouTube videos.

Great application. They say Nero fiddled while Rome burned. Which is just what Adobe seems intent on doing with mobile strategy and their greatly limited and fragmented mobile offerings. They are frozen in fear as innovative young companies offer energetic and ambitious applications in video editing and other normal Adobe strongholds. LumaFusion was a great bargain at its price and would still be a bargain is the price was double. I can now foresee a pace of innovation where LumaFusion could soon overtake the power and features of Adobe Premiere desktop application.

Guideline. Excellent video editing software! I love it! One thing I'd like to see, though, is more of a guide/marker/guideline to better center elements like text and images. Thank you!

An Excellent Video Editor. I have been using the software for 3 years.

Doesn’t work at all way to hard to understand. This app is so over priced and doesn’t have anything at all that’s worth 40$ this is ridiculous

Good app, but missing function. Luma fusion is very powerful ! But i hope to add the function of curve speed change !!!!

Se ha convertido en mi editor de video principal. Luma Fusión ha sido mi mejor descubrimiento en el ultimo año, luego de adquirir mi iPad con chip M1 descargar he instalar luma fusion, la edición de video se ha convertido en una actividad creativa constante y fluida, actualmente edito todos mis videos para mi canal de YouTube TECNO REVIEW EN ESPAÑOL rápidamente, la exportación de los videos directamente a YouTube me ayuda a ahorrar tiempo y espacio de almacenamiento. LUMA FUSIÓN es la mejor opción para edición de video en IPAD!!

Very advanced and VERY difficult to learn.. Don’t be deceived; this app is for advanced video editors who already have significant experience. It can do a LOT, but the learning curve is very, very steep. I would not recommend this app for beginners. I have a few years of experience making simple stuff in a simpler app, but this is beyond my skill. There are tutorial videos, but even the “QuickStart” one was very hard for me to follow. I had to stop, rewind and rewatch every topic about 5 times to understand what they were trying to explain, and even then I could only grasp about 5% of it. They fly through the buttons and speak as though you’ve already been using the app and publishing videos with it. Honestly guys, you use computer language that only people who have college-level computer science education would understand. I bought this app about a year ago and I still have not successfully finished one simple video yet, because it is far too difficult. I probably should have bought a different one that was more user-friendly for beginners. I’m sure it’s a great app if you can figure it out, but don’t bother with it unless you’re very tech-savvy.

Excellent. App is excellent. Only issue is not being able to select multiple clips and edit all at once. Powerful and intuitive.

All in the details. Why does it rearrange my clips when I put them in my timeline?

!. I used this program two years ago in the last period. I was having problems after finishing the video and uploading it to the studio. The video works perfectly in the first seconds. After that slow playback. Then I go back to the program to search for the error. I find the video running normally. I don't know why!

Вылетает и не интуитивно. Приложение постоянно вылетает, когда вставляется обычное видео, оно не воспроизводится, невозможно понять причину, нет обучения на русском языке. И это знаменитое профессиональное приложение? Как в нем можно хоть что-то сделать? Как сохранять видео элементарно в медиатеку? Непонятно

Please add AI video edit filters.. Was checking out some ai video editing apps and lumafusion could definitely use that

Not easy to use. I know the LumaFusion app is mainly for technical users. However it is just not easy to use and learn. I have watched the YouTube videos but it doesn’t help. So my advice is to stick with CapCut. I wasted my money and would like to save you your money.

New to LumaFusion. Hi, I am not new to editing videos and using such tools. I have a good experience in using tools like InShot, VN Editor, Capcut, iMovie etc. My very first experience with LumaFusion is kinda different. I found it a bit complicated. Making transitions, duplicating texts, IN/OUT fading of the transitions etc are not as simple as other tools I've used. I couldn't find any option to add fade effect to the videos. Maybe I need to invest some more time and get hands on. As of now, I would prefer using the tools I am comfy with. But I will keep exploring LumaFusion. Please make transitions and fading a bit simpler. Thanks

Needs speed ramping. Please add speed and slow motion ramping into the app.🙏🙏

Not happy need refund. I been using this from last month or two and even to the day, its lagging , crashing and hangs. First I thought it my Ipad thats not handling it well (Ipad pro 12.9inch 4th gen) but then I tried on my latest Ipad pro 11 inch M2 and its still laggy and crashing. I need refund

Great Value. So intutive and fantastic Value, the Procreate of the video editing world.

The only app for video editing for me.. Maybe this review will be read by developers… a minor feature request: the project needs metadata about when and how the project was and how exported. It is too easy to build a great project, export and forget, but then you have to clean up, and I have no idea was a particular project exported or not.

Extraordinary. I use a PC based video program and find LumaFusion better in speed and generating ideas. I am using both to compliment one another. As the updates continue to improve I expect to no longer require my PC based program. I am continuing to follow YouTube videos, an excellent source of ideas and information Awesome Update: I just started experimenting with the Multicam functionality. The manual was extremely helpful in explaining it’s options. I’m using it primary to video record live music performances.

Outdated UI. My feedback is strictly based on UI using iPadPro. It feels very outdated and not very modern. The styling/buttons and other UI aspects do not look & feel as Apple native as others apps (Lightroom, Darkroom,…). Font/boxes/menus & options just look plain. The overall look & feel is IMO not inviting to the user. It is very cluttered and will take time to get used to. IMO an app could have a myriad & tons of features but UI/UX is key to ensuring a pleasant & productive user experience. I wonder about the experience on an iPhone, definitely not recommend to purchase, even at the new reduced price of $25CAD.

Incredible Product.. This is one the best designs editing apps, or even just apps in general. It’s really clever, well optimized and perfect for iPad editing. Has many features that surpass industry competitors, and creates the quickest, most seamless editing experience. Very worth the 40 dollars, would repurchase in an instance on another device if needed. It does miss a few features larger programs offer, like full range of colour grading (as of now it supports a really great colour correction tool, but I’ll use Lightroom iPad for actual colour grading or selective colour modifications.) However the app continues to receive updates and I’m always impressed with what I see.

Love love love this app!!!. Super easy to use I love it!!

Paid for a "premium" app, have to pay to get features available in free apps. I can understand multicam, but having speed ramping locked behind a paid upgrade (at the price of the full app no less) when it has been available for a long time and for free in multiple other apps is just insulting. To get caught in this ecosystem, there are much better a feature complete alternatives for free on iPad.

Green Screen. for the price, this editor is really good and user friendly but the green screen feature is lacking, especially with a transparent shape in front of the green screen or whenever theres a fade in or out transition, never works properly.

A really great tool! Adding are too pricey. As much as I love Luma Fusion, $25 for speed ramping is a little crazy! I’m ok with paying for advanced features, but please, bring it down a bit. Somewhere between $6-12 would be a little more realistic. -1 star. That said, it really is a great video editing app, and honestly amazing to do this on a mobile device! There are a few other advanced features I hope will someday make it into LumaFusion: 2D (or 3D) point-cloud tracking, Animated callouts, Manual/Auto rotoscoping/ background removal, iPhone Cinematic mode DoF control.

What an absolute joy to behold.. I made the transition in the early 90s from tape video editing to digital by the mid 90’s. Even then, a two second transition between clips took five minutes to render. If that sounds painful, imagine making a 15 minute video. If I had LumaFusion in the 90s, I would’ve ruled the world. They may be a small team but they are very much on the ball. Special thanks to Max for instantly making me feel like part of the LumaFusion family. Paul.

Worth getting. If your pc is slacking for editing videos and you have an Apple product (iPhone, iPad) with the A12 Bionic chip or later I suggest getting this program. My pc would take hours to render video from 1080p at 60fps. This program renders in both h264 and h265 in mp4 and HEVC (high efficiency Video Codec). My XS Max renders video fast. A 4K 30fps video that was 4 minutes long took only 4 minutes to render. The editing is pretty simple with pre-made transitions, titles and other advanced options with audio, color correction and much more. The only downfall is the fact it supports a limited number of video formats. My lumix camera records in both mp4 and AVCHD (MTS format) for those crispy high quality videos. I would give this a perfect 5 stars if I was able to edit that format of video.

Amazing and perfect for what I need!...Just one request. I can’t think of another app that would be this good for video editing! The effects, transitions, and customizable effects are just s amazing! When I first was into video editing, I used iMovie and KineMaster, but with LumaFusion, I can do so much more. What I love most about LumaFusion is the coloring effects with key frames. It adds so much life to the video and I could spend all day messing around with them! I do have a request for an update...a masking effect. LumaFusion already has a chroma key that one can alter for their needs, but it doesn’t have it where you can make the masking and green screens. Professional programs for computers have this available and adding it on to LumaFusion would make this app truly perfect! I think it would not only make me happy, but many others that might want this add-on as well. I ask that you simply consider my idea. Overall, I definitely believe that LumaFusion is the best video editing app! 100% worth the money and I’m always recommending it to friends and family. Many effects, hardly any bugs(well for me at least), I cant think of any other app that can do what LumaFusion can!

Best editing software EVER! But... (Please Read). SOOO yes I am writing this review for exactly 2 reasons. #1 I just want to say that I have tried both Luma Fusion and Final Cut ProX... But, I personally think that Luma Fusion is WAY better because its more simpler and easier to use. And #2, I have been using Luma Fusion quite a lot lately and I have sometimes experience VERY annoying lags, glitches, and crashes in the app. If you guys at Luma Fusion could fix this I will literally have a party with MYSELF because I don’t have friends... OK! But in conclusion, I think that Luma Fusion is THE BEST editing software out there right now but I think it could be even better if you fixed the bugs. I hope you read and/or understand this. Thank you :D Sincerely, a 12 year old that loves Luma Fusion.

Favorite Editor Until Update. This was my go-to editor until the recent major update. The audio sync issues are all over the place. Sometimes it’ll play audio at the right times. Sometimes it’s silent when there should be audio. Sometimes the audio starts out playing, then it stops. Sometimes the audio starts as it should, then it’ll ALSO start playing audio from a different part of my project. Every time I press play, I never know what type if audio playback Im going to get. I’ll come back and change my review after it gets fixed, but it’s been going on for a couple weeks now and it’s almost unusable at times. If you have no audio, it should be fine to use.

Amazing. Not a pro by any means but this app has given me the ability to give editing a shot at a fair price. My iPad Pro is my main computer for editing as my old classic MacBook Pro is struggling with 4K stuff. There’s nothing in this app that I wouldn’t be able to do on a computer. If you’re just editing snowboard footage or go pro stuff, it’s amazing. Starting to really feel comfortable with the software and it has a great community around it. Really feel like I am learning something I have always wanted to get good at. Can’t wait until I’m a pro at using this! My first few videos took some time but wow, they look amazing. Love this software and thanks for giving me a new hobby at a good price.

Lost Files Too. I recently downloaded this app because a coworker told me about it. I shoot drone footage and thought this was perfect for doing quick edits. All was well until I lost ALL my files from an area I went to shoot footage in. Literally EVERYTHING, its really weird; not the whole project was “lost” just most of the main snippets. What makes it weird is that ALL those videos that I grabbed clips from where deleted from ALL of my connected devices, including my iCloud account. I honestly hate to give this app only 3 stars because it’s a really great app as far as capabilities go. I still think its worth the money because you can do a ton with it, just make sure you triple save your work, and videos. I emailed support and included screen shots so hopefully it will help them improve this issue. That is my only complaint with this app so far.

Desktop level video editor. It’s insane how many features they packed into this, I previously thought was impossible to run on mobile because because there was nothing out like it until now. If you’re reading this and considering spending your money on it, I’d recommend you do! You can even download your own fonts into it which is a feature some paid computer software doesn’t even have! If you’re a developer reading this… I’d suggest adding auto tracking, the existing tracking was the reason I bought it… you add auto tracking and I am positive people like me looking for an app that not only tracks but does it for you would be quicker to buy your app.

My go-to app for quick video projects. Worth every cent. It will not replace Final Cut Pro for my biggest projects, but for quick one-offs, social media, and other simpler video work, it can’t be beat. Make no mistake, though, LumaFusion has enough pro features to to make it my go-to app. I often use it when my Mac is busy rendering a 3D project, and it’s nice to have it installed on iPhone for quick access to professional effects and titles. I find that LumaFusion is easier to use than final cut pro for some of the features. You can even export your projects into XML format which is readable by fcp. This feature costs extra money but it is absolutely worth it if you use both platforms.

Essential app for me. Once you get into it it’s pretty fast & intuitive. I use it to edit videos for my music, making memes, & tubecasts. For an inexpensive iOS videoediting app it’s pretty full featured. I really enjoy its interface & sometimes get lost in experimentation. There’s tons of tutorials for it online if you get stuck. Couple of things I’d like to see is ability to highlight entire sections of a project to copypaste or upload just that section (maybe u can do this, i can’t figure it out), and in-app purchases for extra effects like VHS simulation. More parameters on the chroma key would be nice too. Great app, in my top 10 for sure.

The best iOS video editing software out there, period.. I simply cannot overstate how wonderful this software program is. It’s extremely robust (you can do a LOT of things with it) yet very easy to learn and intuitive to use. I like making movies of little things like my daughter learning to walk or road trips I go on. I used to use iMovie which is fine, but waaaay too simple and limited. LumaFusion is like iMovie on steroids. It’s just as easy to use but it just feels like you can do ANYTHING, no restrictions or limitations. Perfect for anyone who is looking for straightforward, easy-to-use film editing software. Best $25 bucks I’ve spend on my iPad yet, for any program. I’d pay double and be just as happy.

One little thing would make this app perfect.. Sony cameras house it’s videos in a different directory folder then every other company (smh). So when you plug your camera up to your iPad, your iPad sees nothing but pictures. This is partly because of Apple looking for general directories and also because of the applications only looking for the same. If LumaTouch could simply add more directory paths to it’s coding for LumaFusion to search through that would solve the problem for a LOT of Sony camera users. Otherwise we have to purchase an entire other app (Pinnacle Studio) just to be able to import the videos. And I’m pretty sure you don’t want your potential customers downloading that app just because it’s slightly cheaper than yours & they have a Sony camera.

It’s smarter than most editors!. Initially skeptical, (It CAN’T be any good at that price right?) I soon fell in love with this wonderful edit program. I thought it MIGHT help get me through a few rough cuts on an iPad but after one outing I dumped most of the other programs and now edit almost everything on it. A few quirks I’d LOVE to sit down with the designers over but usually those are easy enough to work around. It thinks for me which is great. Occasionally I’m NOT thinking what it thinks I am but on the whole a fantastic program with way way better features than you’d expect from this price bracket. Buy it, use it and be wowed!

FANTASTIC app but.... I LOVE this app. One of the best editing apps I’ve ever used. Except for a couple of small things I’m sure I can figure out by reading the manual, it’s a flawless app. Except for the titles, man! The animated titles are the most amateur I have EVER seen. HANDS DOWN. Lesser programs like Power Director or even Adobe Rush have WAAAAAAAAY better animated titles, even for free users. They’re bright, modern, professional and. comparably competitive. The ones presented here in Luma Fusion are just short of something that could have been made in Word ‘98... and they look like it. I’ll l fix this rating once something comparably closer to an industry standard is offered. For now I guess I’ll just have to keep exporting things into other programs to get the desired results need to even compete these days. It can’t be a complete app if I have to follow it up with other apps.

Hands down the best bang for your buck. When it comes to value LF is better than any professional program on the market today. For less than $40 you get a robust reliable professinal mobile editing solution for all your needs. Does it have all the same capabilities as final cut Davinci or Adobe no but its getting closer with each update and youre spending a fraction of the cost on a one time purchase. I’ve been using LF exclusively for 3yrs and produce professional videos. Once you go mobile you never want to go back to a desktop. Having the ability to touch the screen to edit feels like im making art. Its enjoyable. Clicking on a keyboard is not enjoyable to me. You can load a lot of high resolution footage in this app and it will function flawlessly. Unlike Adobe. Do i think LF will eventually have all the same features and capabilities as professional desktop editing programs? Yes i do. Their team is committed to making the best editing tool for the most affordable price and it shows.

Big upgrade from iMovie. Before purchasing this app, I was torn between buying this app or just using iMovie for free. Luckily, this app does far more, and would be a serious upgrade for any current iMovie users. The app is very intuitive- it took me about 20 minutes of button mashing before I felt like I had the basics down. The main screen where you drag in and arrange all of your audio and video files feels like a huge upgrade to its iMovie counterpart. There’s also a whole suite of visual effects with a decent amount of options and parameters, which I was also very pleased with. Two things I hope this app includes in future updates: 1) non-linear fades across transition effects, maybe even some sort of tool that allows you to shape the fades to your liking, 2) more audio controls (fades, basic EQ and Compression).

Almost the perfect solution for me.. Lumafusion has possibly been one of the greatest apps available to iPads/ Macs for some time now. Although you have to be flexible learn some work arounds, Lumafusion tends to get the job done. The iPad version seems to work somewhat flawlessly, but the M1 Mac version has one major flaw. After hours of perfecting and editing video clips on my Mac I export the rendered footage with the expectation that it appears similar to the preview image. This has never been the case. I have tried every possible variation of codecs and resolutions only to find that the rendered video is so dark that it is unwatchable. At first I though this was due to editing on device then watching it back on another, but the issue persists even when immediately playing back the rendered video on the same device. Lumafusion has thus far done an excellent job at addressing bugs through updates. I am sure that this too will be addressed, so long as it is not user error and others are experiencing the same issue. With that said, I will continue to love and use Lumafusion primarily on my iPad while waiting for the day it is usable on M1 Macs.

Finally, Professional Video Editing on iOS. I’m beyond enthralled with this app and have finally glimpsed the future of not needing a dedicated laptop or desktop to edit high quality video. Color grading is important to me and up until now I have been frustrated by stock filters, or worse, no adjustment at all. The workflow is excellent, to the point where iMovie on iOS seems clunky, and I find myself only using FCP or PP for longer, more serious projects. I’ve been totally and completely impressed with the 4K results I’ve gotten from iPhone X, GH5, and Mavic Pro Video with this app, and performance is sufficient even on a base 2017 iPad. 4K playback is smooth and editing rarely stutters, and editing on the iPhone X is faster than my MacBook Pro. How they accomplished this is beyond me. I have experienced a few issues on export to the recently added H.265, but based on past history and frequent updates I’m confident the team will continue their excellent support and issue a timely update. Overall stellar work and I can’t wait to grow with this app, and hope the team gets all the success they deserve.

Needs more audio settings. This app is great and has a lot of nice of features. However it seems to be lacking on the audio side. You’re able to export audio from video files as wav which is good. But audio seems to export as 16-bit audio with no option to select bit depth as 24-bit or 32-bit audio, even if source files are 24-bit or 32-bit. Also, when exporting the LumaFusion project as h265 (video and audio), the audio within the video is exported as AAC, even if you have wav files throughout the entire project. This is no option to select the audio codec as lossless within video export settings. FLAC or WAV would be definitely nice as even Davinci comes with a FLAC option within the export settings.

Been using for a few years now, great app!. Yeah, tempted by FCP, but this developer has continually updated and improved this video editor for ipad, it does everything I need, and no subscription needed. I actually stopped using FCP on my desktop because this works so well. There are some fantastic free video lessons on YT by a talented and (frankly) rather cute woman that really dials in some cool Lumafusion tips and tricks, especially with keying green screen, titles, and a bunch of other advanced techniques. My guess is these people will continue to update and add features, I really appreciate developers like this that are going against Goliaths like Apple and maintain great customer service. Keep up the fantastic work!

So far so good. I am about 45 days into my work flow using an IPad exclusively for video editing. I tried to use iMovie and it was not working out so well. Not to bash it, it just wasn’t doing what I needed. I tried Adobe RU and things seemed great and then successive crashes of the program made me look to LumaFusion. I have only had one restart and I use the IPad on the fire training ground for capture and editing before I leave the academy. I have to say it is working well. I have had a few learning curves and frankly do not understand some of the logic with the import feature. My work flow is not yet defined but a work in progress and the IPad and LumaFusion are an enormous part of my day.

This is the first video app for the phone that I actually finished a video on. Every other Video app I have downloaded I ended up deleting before I finished a project. They were far too clumsy but this one used with one of the pans for the screen on my large iPhone is actually really nice. The stock footage and music is also a really great addition that makes this light years before the others. I also have their company on the desktop which is how I know about them and I use their stock audio and video. I highly recommend this for anybody that wants to make videos with stock as well this is probably the most affordable option for high-quality stuff.

One of the best.. This is truly one of the best editing softwares out there, and I’m not even just talking about for the iPad. I really think in general. This really reminds me a lot of Premier Pro so when I bought it last year, it was pretty easy to get into. And with the new 3.0 update it’s gotten even better! My only thing is that this app really needs to get a little bit more of an advanced color grading system. Right now I have to use some third-party apps to do that. But other than that everything else is great, one of the smoothest playbacks I’ve ever seen on editing software. Just really needs to have that at least slightly more advanced color grading system or have the tools to do so, to really make it superior.

Pro App - Take it from a Pro Like Me. I’m blown away by the technical capabilities. Can’t get the features on a any other mobile editor. I built my viral video career over the past ten years on editing on my phone. LumaFusion is the ONLY app that has this ALL (and MANY of the features are very common pro features on desktop editors used everyday i.e.- stabilization, chroma key, audio editor plugins, etc. ) Might not have a bunch of fancy fun AI gimmicks but those are good for dancing for a TikTok and LumaFusion is good if you wanna make a TV show or Movie or Pro Music Video from your phone. 13th year in the industry and I wish I had LumaFusion for more than just the year I’ve had it.

Very frustrating. After using a number of editing apps, I find LumaFusion very frustrating. The worst part of the software is it’s file management: Duplicate files and lost files...cumbersome, hoggish, and faulty. There are company sponsored tutorials and faq’s to try to explain away its cumbersome nature but this seems to be an area that the designers just can’t master. I really WANT an iPad editing solution and this seems to have the power but the file management is a nightmare. Seems like an initiation to a fraternity. Perhaps IF I get through HELL WEEK everything will be ok, but should I really have to go through this!! Filmora 8 is better but Mac based.

An Robust Mobile Video Editor, Worth the Price Tag. It absolutely grows into an intuitive & immersive video editing experience. I do think performance wise it stutters too often, & makes it difficult for editing music videos (on a 1st generation iPad Pro circa 2015), but I’m sure performance would be improved in time with updates & an upgrade to better hardware. For version 2.1+, it’s impressive with so much room for growth. It would be awesome to have a very quick & easy chat window or a way to provide feature requests/feedback in the app to help promote development & user investment. For instance, I think it would be great if we could use the Apple Pencil to drag & select multiple video regions to manipulate all of their positions simultaneously.

Explosive App. I’m a new video editor just starting up my own YT channel and LumaFusion has made my editing go from zero skills to making videos that I think are pretty darn good. There are a lot of tutorials out on YT to watch to see how other creators do neat things and if you still have a hitch you can go to support from LumaFusion and they will actually get back to you and help you out very quickly. The app is constantly being updated, they definitely take inputs from users and sometimes for me it is hard to keep up with all the updates’ new bells and whistles. Thanks for creating a great product, I look forward to seeing what new comes up next.

Wow! Near professional quality with a budget price tag. I am totally amazed by LumaFusion. I just make amateur videos of sailing and cycling. I had been using iMovie on my Mac, but tend to use my iPad more now. LumaFusion is so beautifully designed. It is one of the few apps that totally takes advantage of the touch interface of the iPad to make for an amazing workflow. It is truly a pleasure to use, and has so many advanced features, that I suspect even a power user could use this over the much more expensive Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci. Just remarkable at a low price point. And, they provide so many useful how to videos. Keep it up LumaFusion! This is perhaps the best app I have ever purchased.

A Joy to Use. I debated for a long time about trying LumaFusion due to the price. I don’t do any professional work, but have been making home and personal videos since the original version of iMovie came out years ago. I always felt I could do whatever I wanted with iMovie, pushing it as far as I could. I broke down and purchased LumaFusion for a recent vacation. What a wonderful piece of software. Took the time to sit through the tutorial videos which are great. This shows the true potential of what can be done on mobile devices with iOS. Would be happy at 10x the price. Still amazed of what I was able to do in less than an hour, and I have never done any real multitrack editing before.

Where do I start. First off, if you are willing to invest a small amount of time, you are going to have one of the most intuitive editors at your disposal which if done right, can eliminate a lot of the time required, if not all, on a pc. For the developers: I’d like to see the implementation of animated gifs, perhaps even more tracks even though 3 is enough honestly but yeah.. Chromakey is intuitive and honestly very effective, love it. Also I don’t know if I just haven’t explored this enough but images can be rotated and moved, but what about the ability to do a horizontal or vertical rotate, orienting the video or picture 3 dimensionally within the position editor, or am I missing something.

For Me, This Is Where It’s At. II started editing videos in the early 90’s using VHS. Moved up to a NLE (Pinnacle Miro DC30+) on a homebrewed PC. Nearly 2 decades later, I tried using Premiere Elements on a Mac. Then, along came Lumafusion. Stick a fork in me. I’ve found what I want to edit with. All of my other editing ‘setups’ were cumbersome or a pain to deal with. Freaking Premiere wants me to sign up for a yearly subscription. Lumafusion cuts through all those headaches. Lumafusion has more than enough features for what I do. I can sit on the couch with my iPad Pro 12.9” and relax. Good times. Easily worth the money for this older guy that’s done his share of fighting editing programs and such in an effort to produce home movies. Lumafusion is where it’s at.

Best video editing app for iPad by far!. This app is way better than any other video editor on the iPad by miles. You get advanced color editing, a ton of options for adding custom titles and professional audio editing tools like high pass filters which will let you take out rumbling, humming and road noises from the background! And the best part is IT’S NOT A SUBSCRIPTION SERVICE!🤗😇 you can buy this app once for an unbelievably great value and use it forever!👍 Plus you still get all the new updates and improvements. If I had one suggestion it would be to render videos in the background without the app being open. I really hope they add that🤞in summary this is an awesome app and I would recommend it to almost anyone.

simply spellbinding!. I am not one to write reviews, but having just spent the last two weeks editing a complex, multi-layer, ophthalmic surgery video with LumaFusion, I felt compelled to do so. This is the video editor that I have been lusting after and salivating about for years... and it will be the killer iPad app (for me, at least) that condemns my iMac (and FinalCutPro) to a remote, unused, dusty corner of my home office. As an intermediate/advanced amateur videographer, this astounding bit of software hits all the right notes... and then some. Of the many features that blow me away are its lightning-fast render speeds and disarming ease of key framing. How do they do it?!? At $20, LumaFusion is a you’ve-got-to-be-kidding-me bargain; hesitate not... just buy it! I would have happily spent five times as much had I known in advance what a (nearly) flawless dynamo this thing is. Why write a review? Maybe a small show of gratitude to the development team and (selfishly) my fervent desire that the app is a smash commercial success such that the developers remain incentivized to keep making it better. (Two wishes: 1/ the ability to warp/curve text; 2/ the ability to morph video/photos into different perspectives.) Bravo!!

Great for the most part. I have experienced a few crashes or exporting problems, but luckily it’s an easy issue to fix. The app works great defiantly worth the money. The key frames are superior to any other app. I do have one effect suggestion and that would be speed keyframes. Of course I don’t understand the difficulties of producing an editing software or even if developers would be able to create such an effect. But it would be helpful instead of having to cut scenes and give them all different speeds. I really have no complaints about the app personally and I highly suggest anyone to purchase it, if looking for a professional mobile editing software.

It’s great, but not for phone. I’m willing to admit that this product could actually be really good and I’m just not used to very heavy editing programs but MY GOD is everything in this app too small, and take too long. I get that video tutorials exists to help you but why make music so hard to find? It took me like 10 minutes to realize I couldn’t add music because of how it wasn’t included in the dashboard of media and whatnot. Not to mention video and picture selection is sooooo tiny! Wouldn’t it be nice if you could maximize that tab or just like directly edit the format instead of picking from presets? Audio ducking is extremely limited given that it only works with narration and not sensed video audio like in iMovie. Text editing is by far the most inconvenient. I love the key frames, but why make the text have to edit each one separately? If I want to make a simple text edit where one word shows up at a time, it could’ve taken maybe three inputs in the text tab, and instead takes around 9 cause each text is a separate tab. Also, why no key frames for effects? Only movement. Again, it’s maybe just not my app, and I hope you don’t take any of this too personally. In my opinion, a great editing app that was never meant for phone.

Do Not Get This App. You’ll be dismayed by the price, but that’s only one element of its selling point. Surely, this price tag is attached to a dependable editing software accompanied by helpful advice from a company that will provide straight answers and solutions? Right? No. You’ll begin to edit and things will go off without a hitch. Then, an “Upload Error” rears its ugly head, and even if you get past that... your audio seems out of sync. And you only have two twenty second videos with hardly any complicated effects or cuts. You’ll free up space. Still. “Upload Error.” You can’t find a solution anywhere, only frustrated people. And so now you’re unable to export your important projects. You have no way of getting them out of this app and past this “Upload Error” when you try to export. You will feel like you’ve been duped, and you will be if you drop twenty dollars on an app that provides no answers only a roadblock of problems.

The best video editor there is. Luma Fusion has to be the all time best video editor ever made and this is coming from someone who has been editing for years who has used every major editor you can think of. There is simply nothing like it. It is packed with pro features, It has a fantastic and fluid UI, smooth operations at all times even with the highest quality preview/playback. Has fantastic audio support/features, and it’s just fully loaded. Perhaps what’s most amazing about Luma Fusion is what it can do when it comes to rendering. I assure you there is nothing like it. From its speed, to it’s ability to render modern formats perfectly like 10BIT/10BIT HDR without the need for a separate software.

Powerful video editor for a good price. I love LumaFusion. I never thought I would say that about a video-editing app, but here we are. I downloaded LumaFusion because I was trying to make a long how-to video for work using After Effects on my intel Macbook Pro. It was a truly horrible experience. it could take hours or days to edit just a little bit of footage due to it pre-rendering all the time. I heard about LumaFusion on a podcast and decided to give it a try. At only $30, it's not a huge investment for a pro app, but even as different as the interface is from Adobe's, I was able to learn the app and effortlessly put together my next video in a third of the time it took to do the same thing in AFX. Something I really liked about using LumaFusion on my iPad was how I could use an external display to preview my video while working on the less-cramped timeline from my iPad. And now that I have an M1 Mac Mini, I'm thrilled that I can now have the simplicity and power of LumaFusion on my desktop. Goodbye Adobe!

LumaFusion is a Beast but.... I purchased this app during a recent vacation because I needed professional video editing software on the go and got tired of using the limited iMovie features and even worse Adobe video apps. So far it’s pretty easy to edit video but my biggest complaint is the panel size! The option to change panel arrangement is nice but it still doesn’t solve the problem of just how small some of the panels are. For example when editing audio levels, it’s so hard to adjust at the end. If that window next to it on the right could go away or be able to be resized that would be amazing. PLEASE ADD A FEATURE TO MANUALLY RESIZE WINDOWS by just holding and dragging. Also the title designs could be improved, they look pretty dated and cheesy.

This is exciting!. I can’t believe the leaps and bounds this company is making with this app! I keep thinking that someone somewhere will get greedy and mess it all up because this is one great app for a cheap one time price. I often wonder how they can afford to do what they do without a subscription! Anyways, the LUT Import is amazing now with the blend feature, making it comparable to a desktop system. If you really wanna get fancy try creating a LUT with Affinity Photo and then using it in LumaFusion! The effects are plentiful and amazing as well. I’m just amazed and cant wait for stabilization features. I want to ditch my laptop sooooo bad, but i just cant yet. I would pay for that btw. This app is so amazing.

Still waiting for the ability to choose audio bitrate. Update: It’s well into 2024 and we are still limited to crappy, highly compressed audio for exports (again, allowing the sampling rate to be changed is next to useless, bitrate is what matters). How hard can this be? Why is everyone who uses this app seemingly ok with subpar audio output? It’s not remotely sufficient for even semi-professional work. ——————————— Why is it so hard to get this functionality? I am using an obscure, free no-name app to convert video (while easily choosing custom audio bitrate) on my iPad, why can’t you guys implement this? It seems absurd to me that maybe the biggest name in iOS video editing sticks you with only one (highly-compressed, low quality) choice of bitrate for audio. They inexplicably allow choice of sampling rate which is not useful at all.

Works!. Software for the tablet works wonders. I am using an IPad 12.9 pro (5th gen) for my videos. Approximately 2-6 min short videos. There have been a few issues but nothing crazy. Simply close down the app and resume, or the tablet might need a reboot (once every 2-3 months). At this time I assume my tablet is old and its time for “big brother” to start slowing down my device anyway. Its works great with touch and keyboard/trackpad. I do catch myself using the touchscreen and trackpad at the same time to help with my edits. The issues I have at this moment, do not justify me knocking off a star. I will updated if there are any major issues. (2023)

Amazing. I’m a pro audio guy who is suddenly having to create video content and I’m learning and using both LumaFusion and Final Cut. I paid for a competing iOS video app before discovering LumaFusion and it killed me... no undo? Really?! LumaFusion behaves and is laid out in a professional manner, has hot keys for many functions (hold down Cmd to see what they are), and generally lowered my blood pressure within minutes of using it. Now, six weeks in, I’m blown away that an app at this price point (and on the freakin’ iPad, no less) has chroma-keying that works, keyframing for everything, and still has yet to make me pull out my hair. Apple’s iOS file management still drives me nuts, but LumaFusion has multiple ways of accessing files both locally and from cloud services. I’m using FinalCut for projects that require LOTS of clips at the same time and, when I advance a bit more, I know there are many more options on FCPX that I’ll want to exploit. For the time being, even if you are a total rookie with editing (my audio experience made me not a complete beginner) save yourself a headache and start with LumaFusion. They have GREAT tutorials. You will not regret it!!!

Great, until the exporting. Hello! I bought this app out of curiosity, and I have to say, it’s simple to use, but it’s quite the beast with editing! And with no monthly fee simply to use it, it’s worth every penny! It’s really good, but exporting is quite the issue right now. It appears that if you make ANY kind of edit towards a clip, no matter how long, no matter how much storage there is, exporting just doesn’t work. It looks like it’ll export, but then, it stops and refreshes as if it was exported, yet nothing is there. I did send an email to support, but nothing from them yet, so I’m giving this review a shot. Until this gets fixed, I can only play around with editing. But when this happens, it’s definitely getting a 5 star rating!

Great program with just a small little hiccup.. Coming from OS and Final Cut I was skeptical a program for the iPad could compete. So far I was wrong... now please don’t think this program is better, but it sure stands up well to Final Cut meaning I don’t have to carry my MBP around. I do wish there were options for more video and audio tracks (3 of each are a little limited) and I did have issues with all my SFX outputting properly. I have sent a question to their website contact so maybe we’ll get an update soon as to what the problem may be. My work around to the issue was to create a new project, load the first complete video and add the 3 missing SFX back into the project while adding my final LUTZ... it worked... but still lots to learn and looking forward to it.

AUDIO BUG. Hey guys! i’ve been using the app for two and a half years now and it has continues to be the only video editing app i use to this date. I love this app and am excited to watch it grow, expand, and improve! I have been experiencing a bug in the audio lately. It appears to only happen to projects that I made before the most recent few updates. When playing the preview, all audio frequently cuts out at the start of an audio file and doesn’t start playing again until I exit and reopen/restart the app, however, if the audio does not cut out, it is often replaced with a very loud feedback that lasts for about 1 to 5 frames. The audio cut out does not occur in exported videos, but the feedback does. This glitch appears to occur only once in a project at the same location every time during playback. I do not think this is an issue with the audio file considering that the time of occurrence can vary by around a second. I do not know what could be causing this issue but I hope the information I’ve shared will be helpful! Have a WONDERFUL DAY!!!😁

Crashes way too much. This app has awesome potential, but crashes constantly for me when uploading video, exporting videos, and even when there’s a lot going on while editing a video. I’m using an iPhone 7, and also an iPad Air 2. I feel like it shouldn’t be crashing this much. And there is plenty of storage space available. Even while editing, if I try to play my video to see how it’s looking, it will play very choppy and skip frames if there’s a lot of editing that was done, which then I need to try to export (which ends up crashing atleast 8 times before success) and view my whole video after export just so I can view it to see how it looks. Then if I want to tweak something (which I always do) I have to restart the whole process over again. Right now totally not worth the $30. This needs to be fixed or I’m demanding a refund. If LumaFusion can fix it I will update this review.

Nearly perfect. I used to do all my editing on premiere pro but was so tired of it being buggy, crashing, messing up my audio when rendering and how unintuitive it could be at times. But the kicker was $30 subscription price when I could spend less on a program that offered mostly everything I needed one time! So far LumaFusion has been a dream and a nice change. It is lacking some features and effects but of course I imagine that comes with time. My only real complaint and thing I was I had was audio scrubbing. Developers if you’re reading this please consider it an option for future updates getting perfect cuts to audio is much harder when you can’t scrub. Doable but harder.

An integral part of my professional workflow. As a professional filmmaker, using LumaFusion on the iPad opened up another unique experience for editing. With all the necessary tools and most importantly precision editing, I can now edit and composite on the go and later send the XML project to be opened on an NLE program absolutely seamlessly. Learning how to use the app was so natural for me because of the thoughtful design of the user interface. At it’s core its based on the traditional look of any NLE program, with a touch of elegance and with the past few updates, it took it to another level. Editing was a part of the process, now it’s just fun to do! Can’t wait to see what’s next. Well done!

LumaFusion for Mac. First I want to say I absolutely love this app. It is the best video editing app I have ever used and I’ve used plenty. It was very similar to an app I used years ago “Pinnacle Pro”. But since this is the only place I could rant about this and possibly get a response I will do it here. You now have LumaFusion for the Mac but only for Macs with the M1 chip?? My MacBook Pro is literally a 2019 and I can’t take advantage of my favorite video editing app of all time because it’s not the 2020 Mac with an M1 chip? I will say that LumaFusion is absolutely amazing but this revelation with the Mac version is really disappointment especially for all the LumaFusion fans out there. You really should of made a version for us all.

Great app... but wish it had. The fact that you can edit 4K with this program is awesome. They have been improving it as they go as well. Got the iPad Pro 2nd gen when it was released, and installed lumafusion. It had some bugs that were desyncing audio and video by a few frames, but that is not an issue anymore as I understand it. This program could blow many others out of the water if it could utilize external storage ‘while’ editing video, like computers can do. This is imperative due to the fact that a 15 min 4K video on a canon 1dxmkii can fill up a 512gb card. iPads have how much storage? At max 512gb. Find a way around this issue, and this app would be GOLD. Keep up the great work.
