Lume
Questions, answered.
Short answers to what people ask most. Something else? Get in touch.
Which iPhones does Lume work on?
Lume needs iPhone 15 Pro or later and iOS 26 or later. It shows only what your iPhone can do: ProRAW, ProRes, Apple Log and Open Gate need an iPhone Pro model, and ProRes RAW needs iPhone 17 Pro or later. Dual needs an iPhone with more than one back camera.
I've never touched manual settings. Is Lume for me?
Yes. Everything is on auto until you decide otherwise, so you can open Lume and shoot. When you get curious, each control comes with a short card that explains what it does in plain words.
What happens when the free trial ends?
A yearly subscription keeps the shutter and record buttons working. Your gallery, and everything you've already shot, stay open either way. Nothing you made is ever held back.
Is the Lock Screen camera the full camera?
It's the same camera, with your modes and custom settings, plus a few limits iOS places on iPhone while locked: no ProRAW Max, no recording to a drive and no 4K at 120 fps.
Where do my photos and videos go?
Into your Photos library, like any camera, or straight to an external drive if you plug one in. Lume has no cloud and no account.
What does Lume collect?
Anonymous usage counts, with no photos, videos, precise location, names or personal details, and you can turn them off. If a capture fails, Lume sends an anonymous error report so it can be fixed.
Is there a monthly plan?
No. There is one yearly subscription with a free week to try it, and Founders Edition as a one-time purchase during launch month.
