9to5Google reports Luminar has rebuilt its photo editing app for Googlebook with Tier 1 support and a free 12-month offer.
9to5Google reports that Luminar, a photo editing app available on Mac, Windows, Android, and other platforms, has launched a rebuilt version for Googlebook. The new app meets Google's Tier 1 quality standards, which means it includes keyboard shortcuts, resizable windows, and drag-and-drop support.
The app also brings Continue On support, so you can start editing on your phone and finish on your Googlebook. Features from the Android version, such as RAW editing, AI background swaps, and masking, are all included.
Googlebook owners can download Luminar from the Play Store. A limited-time promotion offers 12 months of free access. After that, a one-time purchase unlocks the premium features permanently.
If you need photo editing on your Googlebook, this is a solid option, and the free year makes it worth trying.
