  • Review selects and image adjustments
  • Inspect session or catalog organization
  • Check export recipes and progress

Use Capture One on iPad

An iPad gives the image viewer and adjustment panels more space. Use it to inspect your Mac session without moving the original files into another editing workspace.

Can I use Capture One on my iPhone or iPad with Apperture?

Yes — by streaming Capture One from your Mac with Apperture. The desktop app runs on your Mac; your iPhone or iPad displays its window and sends remote input back. You need a reachable, awake Mac with Capture One installed, the free Apperture Mac host, and the Apperture app on your iPhone or iPad.

Capture One also offers native mobile tools. Apperture shows the Mac edition; tethering still depends on the Mac and camera setup, and final color review benefits from a suitable local display. Capture One product information.
