Our verdict

Lunarship Software is a photo editor for Windows users who want to try before paying and keep a licence they own outright. It suits photographers and small studios that value the 14 days return window and the 7 days trial, and that can plan around entry fees of $60.

Pros and cons

Pros

  • A 7 days trial lets you judge the photo tools before paying, and the one-time model in free trial and one time means no renewal to plan for.
  • A 14 days return window sits at the common length of 30 and is shorter than the 180 some sellers allow.
  • A one-time purchase keeps entry cost at $60 with nothing recurring later, which suits small photo businesses budgeting a fixed amount.
  • The build targets Windows, the main desktop platform for photo work.
  • Support offers email and help centre, covering written help without a subscription.

Cons

  • There is no free version, so the 7 days trial is the only free window before a purchase.
  • Entry fees of $60 rank high against the €86.82 median across the sites we track.
  • Availability is limited to Windows, so buyers on other systems cannot use this build.
  • The 7 days trial is shorter than the 14 median, leaving less room to test on a full photo job.

Scored 8.4 / 10 by ForgeCue.

Who it suits

  • Photographers and small studios that work on Windows and want a permanent licence rather than a monthly one
  • Anyone who wants to evaluate a photo editor through a 7 days trial with 14 days to change their mind
  • Small photo businesses that price a fixed entry cost of $60 and prefer no renewal to budget

Who should look elsewhere

  • Mac or Linux users, since the app covers Windows only, where CLIP STUDIO PAINT or Wondershare offer wider reach
  • Anyone who wants to edit photos at no cost, as there is no free version here and TeamViewer Int offers one
  • Tasteful buyers who want a long evaluation window, since the 7 days trial is shorter than the 14 median

How it compares on our data

On the measures readers weigh first, Lunarship Software sits mid table rather than near the top. Its trial length of 7 days places it at 38 of the 64 brands we rank on that measure, and its entry price of $60 places it at 76 of 82 on price. Set against that, the overall score here is 8.4 out of ten, split into a cost part of 8.3, an offer part of 8.4 and a trust part of 8.4. The shape of those scores matters for a buyer: offer and trust sit higher than cost, so the trial and the return window carry more weight in this verdict than the headline price. The trial also lands below the 14 median across the wider set, so a shopper with time to spare should weigh the 7 days window carefully before settling on a photo editor.

What you get free

There is no free version of this photo editor, so nothing carries over at no cost once the trial ends. What you can do is trial the full tool for 7 days and change your mind inside 14 days. That second window is the more useful of the two for anyone nervous about a photo editor, because it follows a purchase rather than replacing one. Read the two together and the free access picture is narrow but real: a fixed trial, then a fixed return period, and nothing free to keep. If you would rather not pay anything at all, TeamViewer Int lists a free version, which is the comparison worth making when budget is the deciding factor. The 14 days window here also matches the 14 figure for PC software, so it is a familiar length rather than an unusually cautious one. The one-time model in free trial and one time adds a further point: buying once means the decision ends at the checkout.

Intro and renewal prices

Lunarship Software is sold on a one-time basis rather than a subscription, and the free trial and one time field lists free trial and one-time as the only models in play. Entry fees start at $60 for the photo editor, and because nothing is sold as recurring, there is no second charge and no renewal figure to quote you later. That is the central pricing difference against the alternatives here: CLIP STUDIO PAINT lists entry at $0.99 and Wondershare at €1.58, both lower starting points that come with the usual question of what a later payment looks like. The practical way to read the numbers is that you pay once at $60 and keep what you bought, so the cost of the product is decided in a single transaction. The tool itself is a photo editor, and it runs on Windows, so the price is only worth weighing if your machine already fits. Trial access of 7 days and the return window of 14 days sit around the purchase, which is how the entry figure converts into a decision you can reverse.

How Lunarship Software compares

Frequently asked questions

How much does Lunarship Software cost?+

Entry fees start at $60 for the photo editor, and the free trial and one time field lists one-time as the only paid model. There is no recurring charge, so the entry figure is the total rather than the first of several. No free version exists, so a purchase is the only way to keep the tools.

Is there a free trial for Lunarship Software?+

Yes, a trial of 7 days is offered with the download, and the photo tools can be judged before paying. That window sits below the 14 median across the sites we track, so test the editor on a real photo job rather than a small sample.

Can I get my money back after buying?+

A return window of 14 days applies after purchase, which gives time to try the photo editor on real work. That length matches the 14 figure for PC software, and it sits well short of the 180 some sellers allow.

Does Lunarship Software have a free version?+

No free version is offered, which is a real difference from TeamViewer Int, where a free version is listed. What stands in its place is the 7 days trial plus the 14 days return window, so access is temporary either way unless you buy.

What operating systems does Lunarship Software run on?+

The app is built for Windows, which covers the main desktop platform for photo work. No other system is listed, so anyone on a Mac or a Linux machine would need a different editor, such as CLIP STUDIO PAINT or Wondershare, to cover their setup.

How does the pricing compare with CLIP STUDIO PAINT and Wondershare?+

Entry here is $60, against $0.99 for CLIP STUDIO PAINT and €1.58 for Wondershare. Both alternatives start lower, and the free trial and one time field shows a one-time purchase here, so the choice is between a higher single payment and a cheaper start elsewhere.

What kind of software is Lunarship Software?+

It is a photo editor, listed under photo in the photo field, and the build targets Windows. If your work is not photo editing, the $60 entry fee buys the wrong tool, so check the editor type before paying.

How do I get help with Lunarship Software?+

Support runs on email and help centre, which covers email and a help centre. A help centre ranks well against written email alone in the PC software set, and no phone line is listed, so live spoken help is not part of what the fee buys.
