Luminar for Desktop with other software

While Luminar for Desktop is a full-featured stand-alone application, some users choose to install and run it as a plug-in for other popular photo editing software. You will be prompted to install the plug-ins for detected software when you initially install Luminar for Desktop. You can also install the plug-ins at a later time.

You can use Luminar for Desktop as a plugin for the following applications:

With Adobe Photoshop

With Adobe Lightroom Classic

With macOS Photos

N.B. Please note that we do not guarantee the performance for legacy Photoshop and Lightroom Classic apps such as Photoshop CS and Lightroom Classic 6.14, etc as the support of CS apps has been discontinued by Adobe.

Also, we only support desktop versions of Adobe Photoshop CC and LrC. None of Adobe's cloud editing solutions are supported. We recommend keeping your Adobe Photoshop and Lightroom Classic up to date to prevent any issues when using Luminar for Desktop as a plugin.
