Features
Pro tools, pocket sized.
Lighthaven is built on a full photo engine that runs on your phone. Here is what it can do.
Develop
Light, colour and tone, in a few swipes.
The develop sliders you know from desktop editors, tuned for a thumb. The photo redraws as you drag, and a light tap on the compare button shows where you started.
- Exposure, contrast, highlights, shadows, whites and blacks
- Texture, clarity and dehaze
- Sharpening, noise reduction and lens corrections
Colour
White balance that listens.
Start from As shot, Auto or a daylight preset, or tap the eyedropper on something neutral. Then refine temperature, tint, vibrance and saturation, and calibrate the primaries.
- White balance presets and eyedropper
- Vibrance and saturation
- Camera calibration for red, green and blue
Presets and profiles
See every look on your own photo.
Presets render live as preview cards, grouped by colour, film, black and white, landscape, portrait and more. Found your look? Save it as a preset and apply it on import.
- Live preview cards for every preset
- Profiles with an amount slider
- Save your own presets and apply them on import
Effects and detail
Mood, texture and finish.
Add clarity to a coastline, lift haze from a mountain view or finish with a vignette and grain. Detail and optics keep things crisp and corrected.
- Texture, clarity and dehaze
- Vignette and grain
- Detail and optics panels
Crop and geometry
Straight horizons, perfect frames.
Pick an aspect ratio, drag the crop box over the full photo, straighten with a slider or let auto level do it. Rotate, flip and fix perspective in geometry.
- Original, free, 1:1, 4:5, 2:3, 4:3 and 16:9
- Straighten and auto level
- Rotate, flip and perspective
Library
Organise like a pro, on your phone.
A proper catalogue, not a folder. Rate with stars, flag picks and rejects, add colour labels and keywords, stack similar frames and build albums and smart albums that fill themselves.
- Ratings, picks, rejects and colour labels
- Stacks, albums and smart albums
- Keywords, titles and captions
Import and filmstrip
Bring in the whole shoot.
Import many photos at once and apply a preset and an album on the way in. In the editor, the filmstrip lets you flick between shots, and copy and paste settings across them.
- Multi-photo import
- Apply a preset and album on import
- Swipe or tap the filmstrip to move between photos
BeforeAfterMasks Pro
Change only the part that matters.
Select the sky, your subject or the background automatically. Paint with a brush and erase what you don't need, or drag linear and radial masks with handles right on the photo. Each mask gets its own exposure, colour, clarity and more.
- Sky, subject and background in one tap
- Brush, linear and radial masks
- Overlay, invert, duplicate and 15 local adjustments
