About
Your iPhone.
Further.
Lookdrop was made to show what the camera in your pocket can really do, and to put the cinematic look in the hands of anyone with an iPhone.
Color Grading,
Without the Class.
For years, the cinematic clips on your feed came with a catch: you had to learn to color grade first.
Log profiles, LUTs, curves, a desktop editor, and a weekend of tutorials. Plenty of people wanted their reels and stories to look like a film, then stopped right there, sure it was a skill for someone else.
Lookdrop removes that step. Pick a Pro Color and the grade happens live in the viewfinder, so the clip is finished the moment you stop recording. Shot something plain? Apply a look in Studio with one tap. Either way it looks like hours in an editor, and it took none of them.
It was built by Tyler Allen, a photographer and creative director who kept hearing the same question from friends, clients, and followers: how did you make it look like that? Lookdrop is the answer, packed into an app, so anyone can be the creator behind the shot.
“Everyone kept asking how I made my clips look that way. Lookdrop is my answer: the grade I spent years learning, live in your viewfinder, for anyone with an iPhone.”

What We Believe.
Anyone Can Be a Creator.
The gap between a phone clip and a cinematic one was never talent. It was a skill most people never had time to learn.
The Grade Belongs Before the Shot.
Color happens live in the viewfinder, so what you see is what you post.
One Tap Beats a Tutorial.
When a look takes a single tap, people actually use it. Nobody should need a weekend of lessons to make something beautiful.
Your iPhone Can Do More.
The camera in your pocket shoots 48MP ProRAW and Apple Log. Lookdrop is built to show you what that really means.
Designed in Texas.
Built for iPhone.
Made for anyone who has watched a cinematic clip and thought, I want mine to look like that.
