LumaFusion review

LumaFusion is the most capable editor on this list, and the reason it does not rank higher is price and learning curve rather than features. For $29.99 once on the US App Store you get six video, audio or graphic tracks plus six audio tracks, a timeline that works as both track-based and magnetic, color correction with waveform, vector and histogram scopes, LUT import, unlimited keyframes, graphic and parametric EQ, voice isolation and audio ducking. It edits straight from Photos, Frame.io and USB-C drives and handles frame rates from 18 to 240fps. Speed ramping, Multicam Studio for six angles and FCPXML export to Final Cut Pro are $19.99 add-ons each, or come with the Creator Pass subscription and its Storyblocks library. There is no free tier, the trend templates of CapCut are absent, and the newest iPhone build requires iOS 27, so check your device first.
