True Color is a layered photo editor for iPhone: 26 adjustments, masks, and your own LUTs. No AI deciding for you, and every change stays editable.
See it, not read it
A flat capture on the left, a few layers of care on the right. Sweep across it — in True Color, every step of that edit stays editable, not baked in.
Left: straight off the phone, untouched. Right: the same frame, graded.
Your turn
Six layers from the editor, wired to this photo. Drag the sliders, tap the eyes to switch a layer off, or apply a whole Look in one tap — exactly how it feels in True Color.
A taste, not the tool: the app itself goes to 26 adjustment types, masks, Curves, and your own LUTs.
If Curves, Channel Mixer, and Selective Color are your daily tools, they’re all here, arranged in a proper layer stack. Just starting out? Pick a filter, move one slider, see what happens. You can’t break anything, every step is undoable, and the deeper tools will wait quietly until you’re curious.
What’s inside
Four ideas hold True Color together. Each one is precise enough for a working pro, and plain enough to learn by moving one slider and watching the photo.
Pick from 26 adjustment types, from Exposure and Levels to Curves, Split Toning, and Channel Mixer. Each one lives on its own layer, so you can reorder it, soften it, or switch it off next week. Nothing is baked in until you export.
Paint a mask to keep an adjustment exactly where you want it, or use Blend If to limit it to just the shadows or just the highlights. Brighten a face without washing out the sky behind it. If you’ve ever dodged and burned a print, your hands already know this.
Start with the built-in filters, or bring your own LUTs (.cube and .3dl). When an edit finally feels like you, save the whole stack as a Look and give the next photo the same treatment in one tap.
No postage-stamp preview, no wait and see. Move a slider and the full-resolution photo answers instantly, so your eye stays on the picture and you can trust exactly what you see.
