From People Who Shoot Every Day

I wasn't expecting this level of control from an iPhone app. The manual settings work how they should, and the real-time grading actually changes how I shoot.

Marcus W. Professional Photographer

We've started using it for BTS client shoots when we need to move quickly. Grading in real time means less post work for the team.

David P. Creative Director

I used to spend way too much time editing. Now I just pick a color, shoot, and I'm done.

Jenna R. Content Creator

I manage content for three brands, so anything that saves time is huge. Shooting and posting without opening another app has genuinely made my job easier.

Sarah C. Social Media Manager

When I'm traveling, I need to post quickly. Lookdrop makes that possible without sacrificing quality.

Alex T. Content Creator

Questions, Answered.

How does real-time color grading actually work?
Pro Colors render in the viewfinder in real time. Frame the shot, watch the grade apply live, press the shutter. The file that lands in your library already carries the look, at full quality.
Is anything actually free?
Yes. The Hi8 camcorder costs nothing. Real tape look, no watermark, no catch. Creator and Pro unlock the full camera, Studio, and the expanded look library.
Do I need to edit my photos after taking them?
That is the point of Lookdrop: you do not have to. Grade while you shoot, capture once, post. When you want to push further, Stills Studio holds a full editor with light, color, HSL, grain, and masks.
Does this work with all iPhone models?
Lookdrop is tuned for iPhone 15 and newer, where the camera hardware and ProRAW capture can do their best work.
What's included in each subscription tier?
Creator: the real camera with manual control, the full library of 50+ photographer-made Pro Colors live in the viewfinder, full access to Studio, and the Drops community. Pro: everything in Creator plus cinematic Apple Log and ProRes video, 48MP ProRAW, advanced manual control, and first access to new looks and features. Both start with a one-week free trial.
