You don’t need lots of time or pro skills to make the most of this ultra-fast, super-intuitive photo editor. Darkroom can access your whole photo library at once, letting you immediately start cropping, adjusting curves and using preset filters or creating your own—until your pics are exactly how you want them.
All good but one bug spotted

All is good, one of the best photo editing app there is but I spotted bug. When you set even border, let say 1 width black, save the copy, edit picture with border and set new border 3 width white square, the square borer makes picture not on the center. Tested on iPhone 11 Pro and iPhone 13 Mini. Please, fix that.

Constant problems with copying and pasting settings

In general, I love the idea of the app. Being able to apply fine edits right into the gallery is awesome. But surprises are coming when you start to copy and paste your edits onto other photos. The app can’t just open the photo for edit (the settings are frozen) or shows me a different photo, not the one I chose. I have to restart the app all the time to make my edits. Also, it blows highlights when you export HDR videos into the SDR: although in the preview it looks good, the tone mapping overexposes the entire image during the export, so in the gallery the video looks just overexposed. I’d either change the mapping of tones, or just didn’t change the dynamic range during the export. Overall, I love the app, but these copy/paste things are really annoying if you need to edit a lot of images. So I can’t just give 5 to that.

What i like: I really appreciate the new features in Darkroom 6 - especially the masks and the gradient tool. This is really a big improvement. I like separate sliders not only for shadows and highlights but for also blacks, whites and clarity What I do not like: Lack of a repair/ healing tool (or at least a simple spot removal tool). This is rather a one of essential features for a photographer Lack of denoise/oise reduction feature. the monthly price is twice as much as the Ligtroom for ipad

Developer Response
Thank you for your feedback. We are planning to add the requested features in due time. Note that you can create, vote on and discuss feature requests here: https://darkroom.nolt.ioNote that it's our yearly price that is twice Lightroom's monthly, a little less actually.
