How do I imports LUTs into LumaFusion? (iOS/Android/ChromeOS)
NOTE: LUTs exported from Affinity Photo in .cube format have the red and blue channels reversed. While we normally recommend using .cube files, for Affinity Photo we currently recommend using .3dl files to create LUTs for use in LumaFusion.
To import a LUT:
- Select the Import button in either the Library window or the Color & Effects Editor
- Navigate to the storage location where your LUT is stored (You may have to log into the location if you have not before).
- Choose the LUT and select Open
You can find these instructions and more in the LUT reference guide page here.
For iOS users
There may be instances where the LUT you're trying to import is grayed-out, even though it seems compatible. This can happen when another app utilizes its own LUT "identifier", causing them to be grayed-out in other programs. The easiest workaround is to temporarily uninstall any other creative apps on your device that support or create LUTs. However, if this is not feasible, try the following:
iPhone/iPad:
1. Download the LUT to a location in the Files app (if not already)
2. Press and hold the file, then select Share
3. If LumaFusion or Share to LumaFusion is not present, scroll to the right of the apps list and select Edit (three dots)
4. Add LumaFusion to the Favorites section from Suggestions
Mac:
1. Download the LUT to a location in Finder
2. Press and hold the LUT file, then select Open With
3. If LumaFusion is not in this list, select Other...
4. Change Enable from Recommended Applications to All Applications
5. Select LumaFusion then Open
