Ultralight: Photo Video Editor Reviews

by Lundberg02

I opened Ultralight and tried what I could make work which wasn’t much, but after looking at two pics from my library, the screen above the library pictures went black and the spinning gear appeared and never went away. I closed Ultralight and reopened several times but the spinning gear was still there. I went to app support from Ultralight Store but it wants me to use the Mail app to contact the developer, I don’t use Mail. iOS 12.3.1, iPad Pro 9.7. I think I would like it and do IAP if I could get to work at all, hence two stars instead of one. Right now it’s useless.

As an experienced video editor the idea of Ultralight is amazing. I like how it’s layed out. It has a lot of the power that most pro software has. With that said, it still needs work in its performance. It’s glitchy, there are times where it will freeze up, and good luck trying to edit a video segment longer than 10 min. So it does take a little bit more work but over all I love being able to do my work on the move. So it’s worth it.

Purchased the full/pro version IAP a while back, but now asks for subscription to use the “pro” version. I dunno, I’m just getting tired of paid for apps turning into subscription…What functions can I still use? According to Apple’s AppStore rules/guidelines: All the existing functions and features as of version turning it into sub (dev not allowed to remove existing functionality and features for people who previously bought Ultralight ).

Great app, I’ve created my own filters. Only downside is that though I don’t mind watching all the ads to save my pictures, it seems like sometimes I have to wait a few days for new ads to reload so I can view them in order to save my pictures. No one has time for that. Just have the ads, we’ll view them and we can save the pictures. Waiting a few days until ads are visible is ridiculous.

This is a really good editing app! But there are a few things I do not personally like. When I'm done editing my video it takes 5 minutes to load and save. It annoys me a lot. But this is a beyond good app! I also don't like the set up, I like it but I don't at the same time. The set up could have a little more tweaks and perfect! Things I like about Ultralight is that it's such a good editing platform! It also lets you chose to save it over the original or make a different copy. That's great because some editing apps I use don't have that. Anyway thank you for taking your time in reading this and please don't get offended! Oki bye!

I just bought the full version, I used two other editing apps . I just got started in photography I definitely liked Ultralight but I would like to suggest on adding a text feature so I could write on my photos (watermark) , an when adding the double exposure adding a easier way to add the second photo using a rotate feature that could help straighten the picture. And I would also like to see a way to view The before and after pictures during the edit session . Can’t wait too see Ultralight continue to grow Thanks you for creating Ultralight I love the backgrounds!

Edit I would also like to suggest a feature that lets me pick what size brush I want to use when using the saturation it can get a little tricky .
Edit : thanks for improving Ultralight I would like to suggest maybe a desktop version? I would definitely download it.

Most photo editing apps are total scams and won’t let you use anything without paying. Ultralight is actually pretty great! Whenever I have a problem with my photo not popping enough or it popping to much, it’s easy to fix with Ultralight! It has options like, replace this photo with the edited one or make this a new photo! It’s really cool and overall, I’m impressed. Thanks for the great app! My family and me love playing around with it.

So I love Ultralight for editing and other stuff like that, I wish you could add a blur affect in where you can put the clarity the noise and stuff like that there should be a blur one like you could do blur for like your videos and I actually would make it like good and so I would think that should be a future update but there is a blur for photos but it’s a pro and I would like to have one of those like you could go on edit in the triangle where you can put the clarity I wish there was a blur so you can make a blur I know clarity you could do that but but if you want to clarity all the way up for like a fan page edit or something like that and so I would like a blur.

I Would Rate Ultralight 5/5 It’s Just That Once Your Done With Editing Your Photo/Video It Says Pay For It To Save, which you don’t have to pay, u just have to click the sentence under when it says pay. I Just Don’t Know Why They Didn’t Delete That Part? But That’s My Review On Ultralight! Hope It Helps When U Download It!

The blur option leaves a noticeable outline around the edges of the photo. It only shows up when I save it.

**Despite the weird blur, I decided it’s not worth docking a star off and I just bought premium version. Ultralight is simply amazing and one of the best out of the large amount of apps I’ve tried. I highly recommend paying the $5.99 for it. This is a more reasonable price than you realize.**

this app's controls (sliders) are a little different; however, I find it very convenient to use. Ultralight has some color-adjustment options I’ve not found anywhere else but in Lightroom and Photoshop—thanks for offering them here! Brush effects are included too! Also like the texture overlays and blending options (IAP). Highly recommend this app!

Before finding Ultralight I downloaded so many spammy video editing apps that tried to sell me memberships as soon as I opened them and then didn’t offer BASIC FUNCTIONALITY, like ‘brighten’. Infuriating. Ultralight is perfect: It doesn’t just have brighten - I can brighten shadows, highlights, midtones... Clean, easy to use interface. It’s like Lightroom for videos.

I am 15 Years old and I have tik tok and Ultralight honestly helps me with fanpage editing! I recommend using vont this app 24FPS and prequel:) It makes such an amazing video to edit with! It only depends about the lighting! Ultralight has everything you need!(in my opinion) If you want to contrast less for example it can give the right amount! Ultralight dosent have the best quality but I love Ultralight !(sorry for the short review)

I use a couple of editors when working with images and videos on my iPhone and I always seem to finish up with this app (sometimes I even start with it 🙂). Everything I need is there. All I would add might be layers but it's not necessary if I am using the phone to edit.

I've used Ultralight for over a year and my suggestion is to grab... now. We'll thought out and easy to use. I love Ultralight.

I’ve had Ultralight on my phone for a LONG time, and hadn’t tried it until today. IVE BEEN MISSING OUT! Seriously, I take zillions if photos and just don’t love any of editing apps (until now). The features are amazing, not overwhelming or confusing. The “glow” feature is my favorite thing, the filters are subtle and gorgeous, and I just straightened out a seriously crooked photo with the perspective tool. I could go on. Thank you for creating such a beautiful and useful tool! ❤️

Ultralight is amazingly built with such a sleek design. I absolutely love Ultralight. However, sometimes Ultralight would freeze as I scroll down my camera roll. Not sure why it happens but it would take a couple seconds, sometimes longer to load the pictures and once it’s loaded, if I would try and scroll down again it would freeze once more. Other than that, it’s still a brilliantly flawless app and I would highly recommend it.

This simple and very useful video editor can also edit your photos. It has a three-tool section dedicated to sharpening/denoise, which seems like a hard thing to find for free. It also has plenty of options for color and light control, (one for purchase), and a nice selection of filter presets for free, along with others you can buy. You can also tweak perspective and freeze parts of your video. A GREAT tool to combine with other editors that let you do layers and split/trim/merge your videos.

I have been using Ultralight for last two months. I have used several photo editing apps. However, this is the best and easy so far. My phone storage says the documents and data by Ultralight is 8.88 GB. I have deleted all my edited pictures after saving them into Google Photos. However, the documents and data still occupies 8.88 GB. Can anyone suggests, how to restore the space without deleting Ultralight ? I am afraid to use Ultralight, as it keeps on using my phone storage.

Ultralight is definitely great. Only thing I am not able to sort this problem out.

I downloaded this by mistake because I was looking at something else. Obviously I don’t multitask well I’m a little dyslexic. Ultralight is so intuitive all I have to do is tap and move my finger. It almost anticipates what I want to do. This is a non-paid none-solicited neutral recommendation for Ultralight. Even without buying the extras for 1.99 which is fairly reasonable Ultralight apps and filters that are available are phenomenal. I highly recommend this and just give the developers a little bit of cash I may even buy some of the filters although the ones that are there are incredible I can move it around with my fingers and it’s really really great I am using an iPhone 6S plus

Woke up this morning, August 21st to edit some new photos. Turned on this app and selected an image, clicked, and then Ultralight closed. Did this a few times with the same results. It didn't occur with all images, but I haven't used it enough this morning to find any other additional bugs. Hope you will fix this right away. Love Ultralight and would hate to switch to some other app.
