    • What is White Balancer?

      White Balancer is a free iPhone app that puts the color back into flat, washed-out photos and videos in one tap. Phone cameras guess at the lighting and often guess flat, so the vivid colors you saw come back grey. Tap one neutral point with the White Balance Sampler and the real color returns across the whole shot, usually in under 10 seconds.

    • What is the White Balance Sampler?

      The White Balance Sampler is the one-tap tool at the heart of the app. Tap anything in the photo that should be neutral, such as a white wall, a grey road or a cloud, and the whole photo rebalances around it. It is the same neutral-picker technique professional editors use, without the menus.

    • Is White Balancer a Lightroom alternative?

      For fixing color, yes. If you open Lightroom Mobile mainly to rescue washed-out or grey photos, White Balancer does that job in one tap, for free, with no login, no subscription and no AI. It is not a full RAW editor: there is no masking or catalog, so keep Lightroom if you need those.

    • Does the app use AI?

      No. White Balancer does not use AI. It uses proven, traditional image processing to adjust the white balance of your photos and videos, so results are predictable and your images stay yours.

    • Are my photos and videos processed online or offline?

      All photo and video processing happens locally on your iPhone; it even works in airplane mode. Your photos and videos are never uploaded to a server.

    • Do I need to log in or create an account?

      No. There is no login, no signup and no credit card. Download White Balancer and start editing immediately; every editing feature is free and nothing is tied to an account.

    • Is there a monthly subscription fee?

      No, never a subscription. Every editing feature is free, supported by ads. If you prefer, a single one-time purchase of $4.99 removes ads forever. That is the only payment in the app, which makes it a photo editor without a subscription.

    • How much does it cost?

      The app is free: every editing feature is included at no cost, supported by ads. An optional one-time $4.99 purchase removes ads forever; there are no other charges and no subscription.

    • Does it work on video?

      Yes. White Balancer corrects the color of videos as well as photos, with a live preview while you pick the neutral point, trimming, and full-resolution export with no watermark.

    • Will editing affect the quality of my photos and videos?

      No. The app edits at full resolution and exports without any watermark, so your photos and videos keep the highest possible quality.

    • Which devices are compatible with White Balancer?

      The app runs on iPhone with iOS 18.1 or later. Check the App Store listing for specific device requirements.

    • Can I edit several photos at once?

      You can select several photos, but each one is edited individually so the neutral point is right for that shot. Recent edits are saved, so you can quickly reopen and continue any of them.

    • How can I share my adjusted photos and videos?

      Once you have perfected your photo, share it directly from the app to your favorite social platforms or save it to your camera roll, at full resolution, with no watermark.

    • Is my original photo preserved after editing?

      Yes. The original photo remains intact. The app edits a copy of your image, so you always have access to the unedited version.
