About
Project Indigo is a computational photography camera app from Adobe Labs that captures bursts of photos and combines them to produce high-quality images with lower noise and higher dynamic range. It offers both Photo mode for everyday shooting with zero shutter lag and Night mode for low-light capture with longer exposures. The app includes full manual controls for focus, exposure time, ISO, white balance, and in Night mode, the number of frames to merge. Additional features include macro mode, super-resolution zoom to recover quality from digital zoom, a viewfinder with live histogram and zebra striping, and long exposure mode for tripod-mounted shots. Photos employ AI to produce a natural SLR-like look, with raw DNG files preserving all pixels and embedding rendering suggestions. Integration with Adobe Lightroom mobile allows direct image transfer for editing, and Technology Previews offer early access to AI denoise and remove reflections tools. Available for iPhone 12 and newer, with best experience on iPhone 15 Pro or newer, plus initial iPad support.
