VideoLUT 4+

Great for editing on my phone, But…

So I love the capabilities of this app. It’s essentially a stripped down davinci resolve, and I can do 90% of what I need to for my content in this app. The only place where it falls short is halation in videos. It only works like 50% off the time, the other half it turns on… but there is a halation border around THE ENTIRE IMAGE. obviously this ruins the effect and the video, so I just keep it off, but I would love to be able to use halation to its fullest. This is also missing sliders for RGB wheels which would make it much easier to use on mobile. Think Lightroom grading wheels and the sliders there. I know it’s possible to have these sliders bc those sliders already exist for the split toning. These a knit picks, but they would make this app 15/10.

Thanks so much! I will check these things, I was not aware of that halation issue!

I love this app BUT

Excellent app but I find the UI a bit difficult to navigate, and not aesthetically pleasing.
Also I don’t like the fact that the highest quality LUT I can export is 33 when I can do 64 on my iPad Pro. So I’d like to make the request that there be support for higher quality LUT export. I work with a lot of 4K HDR and Dolby vision content so I need these color adjustments to match the quality of content I’m producing.
This is otherwise a great app for creating LUTs, I appreciate all the fine adjustments they have and the calibration feature so I can use my color checker passport to efficiently color correct my videos.
I recommend this for mobile content creators, it definitely completes my suite of editing apps on my iPhone when I don’t have my iPad Pro easily available at times.
Just a warning, you have to pay twice for the same exact app on iPad. If you only want to pay once you have to choose between iPhone or iPad app, I personally don’t like that because I see it as greed; considering the iPad app doesn’t offer anything more than the iPhone app, so why not make it a universal app you pay just once for?
I know as a developer myself the resizing of the app doesn’t take the effort it once used to take so I think it’s unfair to be trying to charge more for the same exact app I could get on my iPhone with no additional benefit.

I will check if possible to add 64 export.
Regarding the price, see it as a 50% price cut: if I made it universal, I would sell it for the double of the price and force everybody to pay for it, while as now, you pay just for your device (half if only iPhone or iPad)

A Must Have

I’m an aspiring filmmaker, and this app beats any other that I have so far seen when it comes to color grading your videos. Extremely easy to use, while some features could be tweaked, (such as being able to compare the original footage to the color graded one horizontally) it is overall an amazing product. I often will find several Luts that I like and can’t decide which one to use (which compared to many other apps that only offer a handful of mediocre options, is a good thing to be distressed about). I would say that this app is definitely worth the money, and really does deserve 5 stars.

As a side note, I would like to add that some people appear to have a problem importing their own Luts, but since I have not used this feature, I do not know. Overall, I am a satisfied customer.
