![]() ![]() It’s a somewhat jarring difference from the full-screen iPad experience and makes me wonder whether Gentlemen Coders would have been better served by reimagining the Mac app’s UI to accommodate a more consistent mobile experience across size classes, with fewer custom controls and bigger touch targets. Even when the app is in full screen on an iPad, the touch targets of some controls are smaller than I’d like.Īlso, on an iPhone and in Split View on an iPad the sections of the inspector become a tab bar along the bottom of the screen. There’s just too much crammed into too little space for the app to be regularly used on an iPhone or in Split View. RAW Power’s inspector and its broad array of controls require as much screen space as possible. RAW Power is a Universal app, but I don’t recommend using it on the iPhone or in Split View, except for quick edits. There is also a Curves tool for editing color channels visually and a Depth Effect tool that works with Portrait mode photos taken while using iOS 11.Įditing a Portrait mode photo’s depth mask. Cropping, straightening, white balance, tone, brightness, contrast, saturation, sharpening, and many other variables can be tweaked. RAW Power can also edit other file formats like JPEG and PNG and features a long list of editing tools that aren’t specific to the RAW format. That gives users greater flexibility to fine-tune their photos. The bottom line though is that RAW Power provides access to tools to modify RAW images that aren’t available in most photo editing apps, including Apple’s Photos app. There is more detail on how the RAW image controls work in my review of the macOS version of the app. For RAW format images, there are also controls to modify Boost, Black Boost, Black Point, Luma Noise, Color Noise, Detail, RAW Sharpen, and RAW Contrast. At the top of the inspector is a histogram with circular indicators that indicate whether any color channels are clipped. RAW Power includes the same tools for editing images as its macOS counterpart. ![]() Buttons in the toolbar allow you to create and rename albums, select multiple albums to delete, and search for albums by name. The remainder of the view includes every album you’ve ever created in your photo library. ![]() Built-in system albums like Favorites, Panoramas, Bursts, and Screenshots are found in the second section. The first section includes recently viewed images and albums. From here, you can also organize your photo library. The starting point in RAW Power is its Album view. There are a few rough edges here and there, but by and large, the app delivers on its promise of desktop-class, non-destructive photo editing on iOS devices. Yesterday, Gentlemen Coders released a no-compromises version of RAW Power for iOS that matches the macOS version’s features and adds the ability to manage your photo library and make Depth Effect edits to Portrait mode photographs. Earlier this year, I reviewed RAW Power for macOS and was impressed by its power and flexibility. ![]()
