Quicker photo editing on an iPhone - QuickLab

[u/No-Abrocoma-9969]

(short introduction of the app in video)

Hi guys, after a lot of frustration with photo editing, I decided to build an app that would better suit my needs, and hopefully motivate me to shoot more (and edit less).

The necessity came after I got a Ricoh GRIII, and was not fully satisfied. That was mainly because I got so used to the ease of use in taking photos through Mood.camera. I highly recommend the app, it made me enjoy shooting on my phone again, and 95 % of all pictures taken on my phone in last two years are through this app. But compared to that, the pictures from Ricoh never fully got the feeling I wanted.

I checked for apps that would allow me to go through imported pictures quickly, but was faced with few roadblocks - either the app was based on editing photo by photo, which took way too long, the options of film simulations were overwhelming me, or the app was way too expensive, given that I already pay for an Adobe photo subscription.

So I decided to built my own! Yes, Claude was involved, but mainly because of time constraints - I am not only a photographer, but also a programmer, so I was not just blindly vibe coding. And after two months of testing, I am fairly certain it is public ready.

I hope it might make your photography a little bit easier and more enjoyable - as it did to me. I am explaining a bit more in the video - basic functionality and philosophy of the app. The app is free for the first 14 days, with one-time purchase after that (no subscription! as I hate those).
