About Obscura - Studio
Obscura Studio is a brand new image editor that’s intuitive to use, but allows for a lot of creativity. Obscura Studio evolved from working on Obscura, an award-winning, pro camera app. Now Obscura and Obscura Studio are deeply integrated, sharing edits and filters between them. This means that you can edit a photo, save your edits as a custom filter, and then use that filter in Obscura’s camera. Library Obscura Studio integrates with the system Photo Library, so you have access to all your images. It has smart filters to help reduce the clutter and by default, just shows you the photos you care about. You can browse all your albums too, for easy organisation and navigation. Organisation Obscura Studio lets you rate images with star ratings, or mark them as flagged or rejected, to help you stay organised. Editing Obscura Studio has a variety of pro editing tools that let you bring your own taste to your photos. Everything from the basics like Exposure and Contrast, to a Curves Editor, HSL tools, and so much more. Filters In addition to the range of built in filters, you can save any edits as a custom filter if you want to reuse it regularly. Custom Filters are shared with Obscura so you can use them live in-camera. ———— Privacy: https://benricemccarthy.com/apps/obscura-studio/privacy.html Terms: https://benricemccarthy.com/apps/obscura-studio/terms.html
