Glowroom
HDR Photo Editor & Converter
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
SDR Finder scans your whole library and collects every non-HDR photo into one album — then relight them into true HDR with real gain maps.
Glowroom turns any photo into true HDR. It synthesizes a real HDR gain map — the same technology behind iPhone HDR photos — so your images glow with brilliant highlights on HDR displays and still look great everywhere else.
Shot in SDR? Convert it. Already HDR? Relight it. Glowroom does both, entirely on your device — free and private, no uploads.
FIND YOUR NON-HDR PHOTOS
Proprietary feature -- Glowroom scans your entire library to discover every SDR (Standard Dynamic Range) photo. Filter by date or device, omit screenshots, and collect them all into a single album with one tap. Your best candidates for HDR conversion.
PRECISION EDITING
• Levels correction with a live histogram — drag the black, white, and midtone points like a pro
• One-tap Auto that reads the scene and fixes it naturally
• Exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, midtones, saturation, temperature, clarity, dehaze & more
BUILT NATIVE for iOS.
• Real gain-map export (HEIC & Adaptive HDR JPEG)
• Live EDR preview — see the glow as you edit
• Save a new copy, or update the original reversibly in the Photos App.
• Edit right inside Photos with the Glowroom extension

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• Full-resolution saves are now free for your first 10 photos — no watermark, ever.
• SDR Finder shows your non-HDR photos as they're found, instead of waiting for the whole scan.
• Redesigned crop: the surrounding photo stays visible as context while you reframe, and fades away when you're done.
• Saving is quieter — a quick confirmation instead of a dialog you have to dismiss.
• Clearer photo-access prompts, with a one-tap shortcut to Settings.
• Fixes for saving edits back to the original photo, including photos opened from the share sheet.
