An AroraTools Studio
Every photo job, in one place.
Crop, straighten, brighten, cut out the background, add text and stickers, blur faces, make collages — on one photo or fifty at once. Every change can be undone or switched off, and you save once at the end. Nothing leaves your device.

Your photos, steps and layers are kept in this browser (the newest 20 sessions) so a closed tab never loses work. They are never uploaded.

How it works
Open once. Change anything. Save once.
- 1
Open your photos
Drop one photo or a whole folder's worth, paste a screenshot, or pick from your phone. iPhone HEIC photos work too.
- 2
Edit with every tool
Crop, adjust, cut out, add text and stickers. Each change lands in the steps list; text and shapes stay editable as layers.
- 3
Save once
JPG, PNG, WebP or PDF, at the size and file size you need — one photo, or all of them in a ZIP.
Nothing loses quality. Your photo is rebuilt from the original after every change, so ten edits look as clean as one. Switch any step off, move it, or go back to it.
Layers stay editable. Text, stickers, arrows and drawings sit on top of the photo until you save — fix a typo or move a sticker at any time.
Edit fifty like one. Get one photo right, then copy its edits to all the others in one tap and save them as a ZIP.
Keep Lumora as an app
Add it to your dock or home screen and it opens in its own window, like an app. It still runs in your browser, so nothing is uploaded.

About Lumora
Lumora puts AroraTools’ image tools into one workspace. Instead of opening a tool, downloading, opening the next tool and uploading again, you open your photos once and work on them like a desktop photo editor: sections on the left, the photo in the middle, layers and steps on the right, and all your photos in a strip underneath.
Each tool runs the same engine as its single tool page — the same looks as the Photo Editor, the same cut-out as Background Remover — so results match, and a fix in one fixes both.
How to use it
- Drop photos in the box at the top, press Choose photos, or paste a screenshot.
- Pick a section — Frame, Adjust, Cut-out, Add, Combine or Info — then a tool. Or press ⌘K / Ctrl K and type what you want.
- Set it up and press Apply. Text and stickers appear straight away; drag them where you want them.
- Press Save and choose the format, quality and size. Several photos come out as a ZIP or one PDF.

Tips
- Hold the compare button (or the \ key) to see your original for a moment.
- Pinch or ⌘ + scroll to zoom; drag to look around; double-click for 100%.
- A selected layer moves with the arrow keys; ⌘D duplicates it and Delete removes it.
- Erase an object works best with small strokes over one thing at a time.
Frequently asked questions
Is Lumora really free?
Yes. Every tool is free with no account, no daily limit and no watermark on your photos. There are no ads inside the workspace.
Are my photos uploaded anywhere?
No. Lumora runs inside your browser tab: your photos are opened, changed and saved on your own device. Nothing about them is sent to us or anyone else — even the AI tools run on your device. (The one exception you choose yourself: “See it on a map” in Details opens OpenStreetMap at the photo’s location.)
What is the steps list, and how does undo work?
Every change to the photo — a crop, a filter, a cut-out — becomes a step. Undo takes back the last one; you can also switch any step off, move it, change its settings, or tap it to see the photo as it was then. Your photo is rebuilt from the original each time, so nothing loses quality however many edits you make.
What are layers?
Text, stickers, shapes, arrows, drawings, pictures and blur boxes sit on top of the photo as layers. Until you save, you can tap one to move it, resize it, turn it, change its words or colour, hide it or delete it.
Can I edit lots of photos at once?
Yes. Open as many as you like: they appear in the strip under the photo. Get one right, press “Copy edits to all” (or tick some first), then save all of them as a ZIP — or as one PDF.
How do the AI tools work without uploading?
Remove background, blur background, erase an object, blur every face and enlarge with AI use small AI models that download to your browser the first time you use them and are then kept for next time. The work happens on your device; the photo never leaves it.
Where is my work kept if I close the tab?
In this browser’s own storage on your device, so it appears under “Pick up where you left off” next time. It is never uploaded. The newest 20 sessions are kept; opening a 21st lets the oldest go. Remove one with its × button, or everything with “Clear everything”.
What size and quality do saved photos have?
Full size: Save replays your steps on the original photo, not on the smaller copy you see while editing. You choose the format and quality, can keep the file under a size limit, and can make it smaller. Browsers can only hold so much: photos are saved up to 50 megapixels on computers and 16 megapixels on iPhones and iPads, and bigger ones come out at that size.
