Real people answer LumaTake email. Before you write, the quick answers
below cover the most common questions — signing in, restoring a
purchase, managing your subscription, finding your recordings, and
macOS permissions.
Help with a recording workflow
Start with the guide that matches what you are trying to finish.
Choose Continue with Apple or
Continue with Google. Your first successful sign-in
creates the LumaTake account; there is no separate registration form
or LumaTake password. In Account & Data, you can add the other
provider after verifying both sign-ins.
Account connection unavailable
If LumaTake cannot reach the account service, check your connection
and choose
Retry connection in Account & Data. A temporary
failure does not delete the session stored in Keychain or recordings
saved on your Mac.
Restore purchases
New Mac, or reinstalled the app? Open LumaTake and choose
Restore Purchases on the subscription screen. Your
plan is billed through Apple. Use the Apple Account that made the
purchase. LumaTake account sign-in and Apple purchase restoration
are separate operations.
Manage or cancel
Billing is handled by Apple. Open
System Settings → your name → Media & Purchases →
Subscriptions, or the App Store app, to change your billing schedule or cancel.
Cancelling stops the renewal; you keep access until the current
period ends.
Delete your account
Open Settings → Account & Data and choose
Delete account. This revokes LumaTake sessions and
removes or anonymizes data held by the account service; local
recordings and projects remain on your Mac. Deleting the account
does not cancel billing. Manage or cancel the subscription
separately through Apple.
Find your recordings
Recordings are ordinary files, not locked in a library. Use
Reveal Recordings in the app, or open
~/Movies/LumaTake/ in Finder. They stay there and never
expire, even if your subscription lapses.
Permissions
LumaTake may need Screen Recording, Camera, Microphone, and Speech
Recognition access. Grant them in
System Settings → Privacy & Security. Speech
Recognition supports on-device captions and teleprompter voice
follow. The Mac App Store edition does not request Accessibility
access or offer global caret-following capture.
See how permissions are used.
If a permission was previously denied, enable it there and relaunch
LumaTake.
Billing & refunds
Apple processes payments and refund requests. LumaTake verifies
signed purchase records to connect subscription access to your
account. Request a refund at
reportaproblem.apple.com. Email us if something looks wrong and we'll help you sort it out.
Bugs & requests
Found a bug or want a feature? Email
support@lumatake.com with
steps to reproduce and your macOS version. Feature requests
genuinely shape the roadmap — we read every one.
Connected services
Connect YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, and TikTok to
publish from LumaTake. Check the selected channel, profile, or Page,
its permissions, and the post details before sending. Stream-key
destinations are separate from post publishing and can require
external start and end controls.
Check the publishing guide
and live destination matrix
for the workflow and destination-specific requirements.
System requirements
LumaTake requires macOS 26 or later on a compatible
Mac. Recording and export performance depends on the Mac, selected
sources, effects, resolution, and codec.
