This update introduces four major improvements to Darkroom, enhancing your workflow, the design, and the precision and versatility of our tools: 1. Bringing our Liquid Glass design update from iPhone to Mac and iPad 2. Revamping our white balance tools to make them more accurate and useful, including a new Auto Balance feature 3. Introducing a completely redesigned Curves tool with unrestricted adjustments and new HSL curves 4. Adding a new photo strip in preview mode with our Flag and Reject workflow features, making them more accessible and efficient The iPhone was recently updated with a fresh new look, adopting the latest Liquid Glass design guidelines. This update brings that same fresh look to Mac and iPad, ensuring the app feels right at home on the latest versions of iPadOS and macOS. The new Curves tool includes two major updates: 1. Unrestricted point adjustments. By default, points along the curve remain fixed to their track as before, but you can now drag them horizontally to unsnap points and adjust the curve more freely. Points on the curve also float unless you adjust them manually. This makes it much easier to create natural, smooth curves with greater creative freedom. 2. We've added several new curves, including Saturation vs Saturation, Hue vs Saturation, and Luminance vs Saturation. These allow you to add a new dimension to your adjustments. This is particularly powerful for anyone who enjoys creating presets, providing a much richer set of tools for recreating film effects or developing more interesting looks that weren't previously possible in Darkroom. The new White Balance tool adds a colour picker and an Auto mode, making it easier to correct incorrect white balance in your photos. Temperature and Tint have also been updated to provide a wider range of adjustments for correcting poorly exposed images. This is particularly helpful for RAW photos, where it's easier to capture an image with a significantly incorrect white balance setting. Finally, the new photo strip in the iPhone layout will feel familiar, given its similarity to the one in the Photos app. It makes navigating your library while previewing images much lighter and allows us to move the Flag and Reject review actions into a more prominent position, making them easier to find and tap.

This update includes bug fixes and performance improvements to the editing experience. * You can now duplicate a mask without inverting it * Exporting a photo as a copy no longer adds it to the album the original was in * Improved mask controls so they stay visible on white backgrounds * Updates to monetisation flows to better clarify trial status

We’ve refreshed the UI throughout with the latest Liquid Glass look introduced in iOS 26 and refined for iOS 27. It looks lighter, feels more immersive, and removes a lot of small bits of friction across the app. * The library interface now has a beautiful Liquid Glass tab bar, making it easier than ever to jump between albums and your Recents. * The sliders and tool area also received a design refresh, with plenty of small details added throughout. * The library photo grid can now be resized using Fit and Fill modes (Try pinching with your finger to resize the grid). * We’ve updated the AI model used to generate Depth masks, so they now have much higher fidelity and accuracy than before. * Depth, Luminance, and Colour masks now include a new Range tool with customisable falloffs, so you can make more accurate, refined selections. * Lots of small tweaks and refinements to make the experience beautiful, polished, and compelling.
