SoEdit
Photo & Video
Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
SoEdit is a fast, gesture-driven photo editor for iPhone and iPad. Every adjustment is non-destructive: your original photo is never overwritten, and each edit stays a live, editable layer you can revisit, reorder, or remove long after you made it.
EDIT BY FEEL
Swipe up or down to pick a parameter and left or right to adjust it. Values appear as you move, so you can work by eye instead of hunting through menus.
GLOBAL ADJUSTMENTS
Exposure, contrast, saturation, highlights, shadows, warmth, and tint — plus a live histogram and a one-tap Auto enhance when you just want a sensible starting point.
PRECISE TONE CONTROL
Shape luminance and individual RGB channels with an interactive tone curve.
LOCAL REFINEMENT
Selective adjustments target a specific color and brightness range, so a change lands on the sky and leaves the skin alone. Brush in exposure, saturation, or dodge and burn by hand. Clean up small blemishes with the healing tool.
COMPOSITION
Crop to a free or fixed aspect ratio, straighten with a fine-grained angle control, and correct converging lines with four-corner perspective.
FINISHING
Looks give you a whole graded starting point with an adjustable intensity. Add vignette, grain, and detail or structure to taste.
SEE WHAT CHANGED
Hold to flash the original, or drag a before/after divider across the frame to compare precisely where it matters.
REUSE YOUR WORK
Save a set of global adjustments as a named Recipe and apply it to another photo. Copy edits from one image and paste them onto the next.
EXPORT WITH CONFIDENCE
Choose your format and quality, keep your original metadata, and share or save wherever you need it.
Everything happens on your device. SoEdit has no account, no subscription, and no analytics — your photos never leave your iPhone or iPad.
