Summary

  • Studio Pro debuted on iPhone on June 17 as VSCO’s new pro editor for full shoots, with a macOS version planned in Q4 2026.
  • 100-photo batch editing sits at the core of the app, pairing VSCO presets with synced exposure, contrast, tone and white-balance adjustments plus a new Style Match tool.
  • Missing pro features still include crops, curves, RAW support, SD-card import and star-rating culling, which VSCO says it will add after gathering early photographer feedback.
  • Pricing starts with a freemium tier, then $13 monthly or $60 annually for more tools; one-tap export to VSCO Galleries is already built in.
  • Late June will bring VSCO One at $499 a year, bundling Studio Pro with Workspace, Galleries, AI Lab and business tools as VSCO pushes against Lightroom and Capture One.
