RAF Film Lab is in beta, so it changes often. Here's every build that testers got, newest first. That's 10 builds since 5 October 2026.
Build 12iPhone, iPad and Mac
Evening skies keep their clouds
Highlights start from the brightest part of the photo, so a dim evening sky keeps its clouds. At -100, that sky comes down about 1.3 stops (Lightroom: 1.28).
Shadows +100 lifts the shadows evenly, like Exposure does, so they keep their contrast and colour. Photos you edited before keep the old Highlights and Shadows.
Export the original RAF file, untouched, next to JPEG, HEIC and TIFF. It goes out exactly as the camera made it.
Dark colours in clean, low-noise photos keep their colour. A brown wallet in one X-M5 photo used to come out grey.
Build 11iPhone, iPad and Mac
Hello, iPhone Duo
Experimental iPhone Duo support. Unfold the phone and the editor fills the big screen, with the panel beside the photo and nothing on the fold.
Every setting is set on a ruler now, on every device. Tap the selected setting again to turn it off and compare.
X-T30 III, X-M5 and X-S20 photos get the camera's own colour, ISO by ISO. They're less over-saturated, less red under tungsten light, and no longer too dark at low ISO.
On iPad and Mac, the editor's sections are cards you can fold away. Each card shows how many of its settings you changed.
Build 10iPhone, iPad and Mac
Films measured from the camera
Film simulations come from measurements of the camera itself, so photos look much closer to the camera's own JPEGs.
DR200 and DR400 photos come out as bright as the camera makes them, with no green tint.
A new editor on every device shows films as frames of 35mm film. iPad gets its own layout, and Apple Pencil works with the mask brush.
Make a reel (a short video) or a collage from your photos.
Build 9iPhone, iPad and Mac
Swipe like in Photos
Mac and iPhone/iPad are on the same build now.
Swiping between photos works like in Apple's Photos app. The next photo slides in beside your finger, even in Crop, Retouch and Masks.
Add frames (borders) and captions to your exports.
A new export sheet lets you export several photos at once and pick their folder in Files.
Build 8iPhone and iPad
Full screen while you drag
On iPhone, the photo goes full screen while you drag a slider. Only that slider stays on top.
If RAFs can't be imported, the alert now says why.
Settings › Help › Send Diagnostics sends a log of imports, camera connections and crashes. The log only leaves your device when you send it.
Compare, 100% zoom and the filmstrip button sit together under the photo.
Build 7iPhone and iPad
Hundreds of RAFs at once
Big imports work now, even hundreds of RAFs, with a progress bar and a Stop button.
The app reads the full camera recipe from each RAF, including grain, Color Chrome, white balance and Clarity.
New recipe settings include Sharpness, High ISO NR, Smooth Skin and D-Range Priority.
Photos are sorted by the date taken and grouped by day.
Build 6iPhone, iPad and Mac
Nine more languages
The app speaks nine more languages. They're German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Brazilian Portuguese, and Simplified and Traditional Chinese.
A guided tour shows you around on first launch.
Rename photos, and find your RAFs in the Files app.
AI agents can develop photos on the Mac or in the camera that shot them.
Build 4iPhone, iPad and Mac
AI agents join the lab
AI agents like Claude can use your library on the Mac. They can search, edit, cull and export over MCP, a standard way for AI assistants to use apps.
The agents can also work with recipes, masks and a connected camera.
Develop many photos in one batch with the camera, or apply a recipe to many photos at once.
On the Mac, Settings opens as a pane of the main window.
Build 3iPhone, iPad and Mac
Your camera develops the RAFs
Develop RAFs in your Fujifilm camera over USB, with the camera's own processor. Its white balance works too, and so does push/pull up to three stops.
A new Recipes tab lets you write, edit and share film recipes. Save them to the camera's C1–C7 custom slots, or read them back.
Fast Cull sets flags and ratings in one tap. The flags and ratings also filter the library.
Crop to set proportions and level the horizon. Heal and clone have their own Retouch tab.
Build 2iPhone, iPad and Mac
The first public beta
Import Fujifilm RAF files. Each photo opens in the film simulation it was shot with.
Switch films and compare with your camera's JPEGs.
Edit with light, colour, curves, masks, heal and clone. Organise photos into albums.
Optional iCloud sync keeps the library on Mac, iPad and iPhone.
