LumaFusion
An app that edits video like a desktop editor on iPhone and iPad.
What LumaFusion does
LumaFusion is a professional video editor for iPhone and iPad from Luma Touch, a small studio. You get six video and graphics tracks plus six more audio tracks, color correction, LUTs and multilayer titles, all for a one-time $29.99. Some extras are add-ons or part of the Creator Pass.
LumaFusion is built for people who want to edit seriously on an iPad or iPhone, like filmmakers, journalists and YouTubers. The timeline works like a desktop editor: up to six video or graphics tracks and six more audio tracks, with detailed audio controls, color correction, LUTs and layered titles.
You pay once and own the core app, which is rare now. Extras like speed ramping and Multicam Studio are sold separately or through the optional Creator Pass subscription. There's no free tier, so there's nothing to watermark.
What it doesn't have is much AI. Captions are manual and there's no one-tap auto edit. If you want quick social edits, CapCut or Edits are faster. If you want full control and clean exports up to 4K, this is the one.
