Silk is a manual photo editor for people who still care where the light falls — RAW development, hand-graded film presets, and selective masks. Nothing automatic you didn't ask for.
Fourteen tonal controls, each a bipolar slider with a tabular readout and fill from center. Brightness lifts the whole frame; Highlights protects the sky. Drag to feel it.
Every preset began as a real film stock, hand-graded against test charts. Stack two, dial the strength, add grain, and save your own. All sixteen are free — there is no PRO tier.
Browse the rollsRadial, linear, brush, and subject-detect masks. Selective exposure, color, and grain over any region. The only machine-learning in the app — and it asks first.
Capture in-app or open the roll. ProRAW, DNG, HEIF — Silk reads the full sensor, all 16 bits.
Work the light by hand. Tone, color, grain, masks. Watch the photograph arrive like a print in a tray.
Export at full resolution or sync, privately. No feed to post to. The photograph was the point.
"I stopped exporting to other apps. Silk is the whole darkroom now."
$3.99 a week or $34.99 a year. Every preset, every mask, full-resolution export. Your library syncs, privately.
