Leica LUX is a professional camera app that brings the iconic Leica Look – and its signature color, style, and feel – to your iPhone. Developed in-house by Leica, it gives you the unique visual character of Leica cameras in a powerful mobile experience.
FLEXIBLE PHOTOGRAPHY
Leica LUX simplifies the photographic process to capture life's moments with clarity. Whether you're shooting landscapes, street scenes, or intimate portraits, Leica LUX offers countless creative opportunities. Photographers of every skill level can craft masterpieces, using automatic mode for spontaneous snapshots or diving into the manual settings to tweak every detail.
LENS SIMULATIONS
Stunning simulations of legendary Leica lenses bring prestige and personality to your mobile photography. Each lens has a distinct visual style, from the Summilux-M 28mm f/1.4 ASPH to the Noctilux-M 50mm f/1.2 ASPH, with more lens options coming soon. The custom software engine also creates authentic-looking bokeh directly on your iPhone.
ICONIC LEICA LOOKS
Leica LUX was developed in accordance with the acclaimed color science of Leica, offering the same color corrections and film presets as found in Leica cameras. These Leica Looks include Leica Classic, Leica Contemporary, Leica Black & White, and Leica Vivid. More than 15 looks are currently available, giving your images rich textures, emotional nuance, and inimitable drama.
AUTOMATIC AND MANUAL CONTROL
Leica LUX allows you to expand your creativity, choosing between an intuitive automatic mode or full-fledged manual control. Manual photographers can adjust the exposure compensation, shutter speed, ISO, white balance, focus mode, RAW output, and more.

Don’t waste your money, it’s not that user friendly and you can’t take selfies. You also upload a photo from your camera roll to edit in the app and it doesn’t let you do anything other than share or delete.
If you use a real Leica, don't bother with this imitation.

I thought I'd give this a try after there was so much hype around this app. It turned out to be exactly that: hype! The features are all simulations that are not perfect. A F1.2 aperture is so hard to display that the results are inconsistent and patchy. It looks AI-generated...which it lastly is.To that end...I regret having spent the annual fee on it. I want my money back. But then again, what am I thinking? It's the Apple Store. You never get anything back. It's just take, take, take...
Nice, but too costly

I like the app, on the whole, but find there’s a big gap between the 50mm lens emulations and the 120mm one. Could you maybe add a 75mm or 80mm emulation to fill that gap?And the cost of subscription means that while I’m currently enjoying a free year’s access courtesy of the Fjorden grip, I won’t be paying a ridiculous £70 a year thereafter. This pricing must put many people off the app. Please consider a more afforable pricing model.
Great but consistently buggy

Love this app as it matches my m11-P lens choices (including the 40mm). I do however find that it behaves inconsistently:- it sometimes mixes up the 40mm and 50mm selection and I have to go wide then back to either 40mm or 50mm for it to work correctly. - consistent in not firing the shutter with the volume control (which is the easiest method for my requirements). Meaning I have to revert to the on screen button, which is not suitable. - somewhat laggy when trying to view what you have just taken and regularly loses a shot which shows up as a black/blank file.Fix these issues please Leica and this will be the best camera App for iPhone. Will have to cancel my yearly subscription if this keeps happening unfortunately.
SUPPORT FOR VARIABLE APERTURE
Variable Aperture is now available on iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. Adjust it in Manual Controls in P-Mode to control depth of field or create a starburst effect.
