Spotmatic Magic

SpotmaticMagic is a complete computational photography studio for iPhone, iPad, and Mac. Three tools in one place — Adjust tone and color with a live preview, apply a creative Filter like Watercolor or a classic film stock, or Transform a whole sequence with desktop-class algorithms like Focus Stacking, HDR Fusion, and Astrophotography Stacking.

Adjust in Real Time

Fine-tune every image on a live canvas with an on-screen luminance histogram. Drag Exposure, Highlights, Shadows, Contrast, Black & White Point, Brilliance, Saturation, Vibrance, Warmth, and Tint — plus a true vignette. Every slider starts on a smart Auto value that solves the whole adjustment chain at once — in true photographic stops — correcting color casts without blowing out highlights; take manual control whenever you like, or tap Reset All to return to Auto. On RAW files, Adjust also drives the decoder’s own Sharpness and Noise Reduction. Nothing is written until you apply.

A Creative Filter Suite

Transform a single photo with ten hand-built looks:

• Painterly — Watercolor (soft bleeds, pooled pigment, and granulation on both the Quick and Verisimilitude presets), Oil Painting (thick impasto relief), Ink Painting (sumi-e ink wash), Painterly Media (pastel, gouache, and acrylic), and Impressionist brushwork.
• Graphic — Cartoon, Line Drawing (pen, pencil, and charcoal), and Photo Abstraction.
• Selective Focus — color splash, background blur, and spotlight effects driven by automatic subject detection.
• Film — authentic color and black-and-white film-stock emulation, including Kodak Portra, Ektar, and Kodachrome; Fujifilm Velvia, Provia, and Astia; and Ilford and Fujifilm B&W stocks like Tri-X, HP5 Plus, T-Max, Delta, and Neopan Acros — each with real grain, sharpness, and halation.

Every painterly look is built on a real simulation, not a preset stack — watercolor runs an actual shallow-water fluid solver, and paper and pigment are sampled and composited in physically meaningful units.

Pro Stacking & Transform

Combine an image sequence with hardware-accelerated algorithms:

• Focus Stacking — merge images shot at different focus distances into a single edge-to-edge sharp photo, with optional per-pixel optical-flow refinement.
• HDR Fusion (Natural & Vibrant) — blend exposure brackets for the full dynamic range of a scene, in realistic or punchy styles.
• Astrophotography Stacking — reduce noise and reveal deep-sky detail, with full bias, dark, flat, and dark-flat calibration support and star alignment that fits even thin-overlap frames.
• Motion Removal — erase passing tourists or cars from a burst of otherwise identical frames.
• Long Exposure & Motion Blur — simulate silky water and light trails without an ND filter.
• Image Alignment — scale-robust feature-based alignment built for handheld and macro sequences.

Any Camera, Any Format

Import from your Photo Library, or choose individual files or a whole folder. SpotmaticMagic reads full-resolution RAW from every major manufacturer — Canon, Nikon, Sony, Fujifilm, Olympus / OM System, Panasonic, and more, plus universal DNG — decoded on Apple’s latest RAW engine. Export as HEIF, JPEG, PNG, or 16-bit TIFF in wide-gamut Display P3, at the quality and resolution you choose, with your original EXIF, GPS, and IPTC metadata preserved.

Inspect Every Detail

Tap any result to open a fullscreen Zoom Inspector. Pan and zoom with a navigator minimap, and press and hold to compare your edit against the original.

Who It’s For

For macro and landscape shooters, astrophotographers, and any creative who wants real control over how their photos look — from a quick live adjustment to a painterly filter to a precision focus stack. The perfect companion for a dedicated camera, and a powerful way to elevate the photos you already have.
