Display P3) - Your edits now export in wide-gamut Display P3 — the vivid colors you see on screen are the colors that get saved, instead of being flattened to a narrower range. Your Photo's Details, Kept - Exports now preserve your original photo's date, location (GPS), and IPTC info, and RAW/DNG files import at full resolution with accurate color. Choose Your Quality - New export controls let you pick JPEG/HEIF quality and output resolution (Full, 4K, or 2K). Built for Everyone - Full VoiceOver support and Dynamic Type: the entire Studio scales with your text-size setting and reads aloud, so it works the way you do. Faster to Share - Share results straight to the system share sheet, and drag-and-drop images in to get started.

A Brand-New Studio SpotmaticMagic now opens into a single Studio workspace instead of a step-by-step wizard: your images, a live canvas, and a recipe panel — all in one place. Recipes are organized into Adjust, Filter, and Transform tabs. Live Adjustments The Adjust panel previews your changes in real time with a live histogram, and now opens by default. A Whole New Creative Filter Suite Eleven new looks: Watercolor, Oil Painting, Ink Painting, Cartoon, Line Drawing, Photo Abstraction, Selective Focus, Painterly Media, and Impressionist — plus authentic Film emulations (Kodak, Fujifilm, Ilford) with real grain and halation. Inspect Every Detail Tap any result to open a fullscreen Zoom Inspector — pan, zoom, and press to compare against the original. Dark Mode & RAW on iPhone/iPad The app now supports Dark Mode, decodes RAW/DNG files correctly on iOS, and lets you import either individual files or a whole folder. You can also export to TIFF. Sharper Stacks Image Alignment and Focus Stacking in the Transform tab are far more robust for handheld and macro shots, and use less memory.

Smarter Alignment Engine - The alignment system now produces a continuous confidence score for every warp instead of a binary pass/fail. HDR automatically discards brackets with poor alignment scores rather than using bad frames. Feature-Based alignment is now the default across all workflows for better accuracy on challenging scenes. - Focus stacking alignment uses more GPU horsepower — CLAHE enhancement, feature orientation, sharpness filtering, and descriptor matching all run on Metal — cutting alignment time significantly. Focus Stacking Quality Leap - The wavelet focus-stacking path now uses Dual-Tree Complex Wavelet Transform (DT-CWT), which is shift-invariant unlike the previous Daubechies-6 approach. Ghosting and halo artifacts on high-contrast edges are substantially reduced. Physically Correct Color in Every Workflow - All seven computational-photography workflows (HDR, Focus Stacking, Motion Removal, Motion Blur, Motion Removal, Autostretch, Astro Stacking, and Alignment) now linearize the input working space before processing. Blending, averaging, and merging operations now produce physically correct results — improved shadow/midtone accuracy and more natural color in merged outputs. - HDR gains per-channel camera response function estimation and recalibrated tone mappers. Available in Six New Languages - The app, settings, and documentation are now fully localized in German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, and Portuguese.

Computational Photography - Motion Removal brightness fix: Corrected an image encoding issue where Motion Removal outputs appeared brighter than the source images. The same source images now produce consistent brightness between Motion Removal and Motion Blur workflows. - Optimized Metal pipeline: Consolidated all GPU compute kernels into a single unified Metal library for faster load times and cleaner build process. Stability & Performance - Rock-solid camera initialization: Improved camera session setup with fallback device detection and multi-thread-safe initialization to handle edge cases more gracefully. - Thermal management: Optimized Metal resource pooling and test infrastructure to reduce memory spikes during batch operations.
