What Lumo is today
Lumo is a creator workspace for Mac, iPhone, and iPad. The Mac app provides the native local workspace; iOS 1.3.1 includes a mobile workspace hub, schedule editing, Artifacts, Skills, Cloud handoff, Local Mac, and Remote Mac. Cloud Agent remains a separate managed workspace rather than an automatic copy of your Mac.
Install the current apps
Use getlumo.io/download as the canonical download page. On iPhone or iPad, open the App Store link and install Lumo iOS 1.3.1 where available (iOS or iPadOS 17+); the displayed version may vary by region. On an Apple Silicon Mac running macOS 13+, download the signed and notarized Lumo 1.3.1 DMG, open it, and drag Lumo into Applications.
The Mac DMG is a direct download. iPhone and iPad updates are delivered through the App Store.
Set up your account
On iPhone or iPad, tap Create account on the sign-in screen. Enter your email, a password of 8–128 characters and the same password again. Enter the six-digit code from your email to finish verification. If the code expires, request a new one when Resend code becomes available. On Mac, create an account in the welcome screen or Settings. Use the same Lumo account on your devices. QR pairing with a Mac on the same Wi-Fi remains available.
Recover your password
Tap Forgot password? on the sign-in screen and enter the email for your Lumo account. If a matching account exists, you will receive a six-digit code. Enter that code, a new password and its confirmation. After a successful reset, return to sign-in and use the new password. Do not share your code or password with anyone; Lumo support does not need them.
Choose the workspace that runs the work
After signing in, choose the workspace for the task: • Cloud Agent — an independent managed workspace that does not require a Mac • Local Mac — your Mac over the same local network • Remote Mac — your online Mac across networks through the encrypted relay Cloud and Mac are separate workspaces. A handoff is deliberate; it is not background file or project synchronization.
Remote Mac requires the Mac to be online with remote access available. Workspace permission checkpoints still apply.
Start with one real project
The best first test is one upcoming piece of content. Bring the topic notes, old scripts, subtitle file, raw assets, platform targets, and publish date you already have. Lumo becomes more useful when it can work from real material instead of a blank prompt.
Recommended first path
A practical first path is: 1. Set up your Creator Profile 2. Import or paste 1-3 past scripts as voice samples 3. Create a calendar entry for the next publish date 4. Generate a script or metadata pack from that entry 5. Open the result as an Artifact and edit before publishing
What to prepare before opening the app
You do not need a perfect project folder before using Lumo. A useful starter set is one topic brief, one or two reference links, a past script or subtitle file, the platform you plan to publish on, and the rough publish date. If you already have raw footage, screenshots, or a sponsor note, keep them in the same workspace so later Artifacts can reference the same project.
Know the main panels
The app is organized around a few repeated surfaces: Chat for active planning and drafting, Creator Profile for voice and audience context, Calendar for upcoming content, Skills for repeatable workflows, Artifacts for reviewable outputs, Library for returning to saved work, and Settings for accounts, providers, media keys, voice, and permissions.
What a good first result looks like
A good first session usually ends with something you can review: a clearer content brief, a calendar entry, a draft script, a metadata pack, a subtitle cleanup, or a cover draft. If the result is still too abstract, add a past script, platform target, or concrete source material, then ask Lumo to regenerate a specific deliverable.
Treat the first project as calibration. Lumo learns the most from your real inputs, corrections, and the outputs you keep.
