The all-new file browser in Photomator is built using native macOS technologies, ensuring lightning-fast performance and a familiar interface that feels right at home on your Mac.

Switch between Photos and Files browsers by simply clicking the pop-up menu in the toolbar or pressing the X key.
Built Using Native Technologies
The all-new file browser in Photomator is built upon the Apple File System to offer a macOS-native experience.
Thanks to its native capabilities, you can browse and edit photos quickly and easily and import even tens of thousands of photos in moments.
The browser doesn't catalog or store duplicates of your photos and lets you automatically sync edits with the originals, saving storage space.
Effortlessly sync edits through iCloud Drive and collaborate with colleagues, friends, and others on editing photos within shared iCloud folders.
Enjoy familiar macOS-native features, like drag and drop, to effortlessly import photos or entire folders.
Thanks to APFS support, duplicating photos in the file browser does not consume extra storage.
The all-new file browser is optimized for devices with Apple silicon, taking full advantage of its incredible performance.
Photomator uses Metal to harness the full graphics processing power and Core ML to bring the best possible ML processing performance on every Mac.
Quickly AirDrop photos, send them via iMessage or email, and share them with other apps directly from Photomator using the Share pop-up menu.
Easily add photos or entire folders to Photomator by simply selecting Add to Photomator from the Share menu.
Revamped Sidecar Files
A new way for saving sidecar files was built from the ground up specifically for the file browser, allowing a separate file with edits to be stored alongside the original photo.
When editing photos in the Files browser, you can preserve all nondestructive edits without altering the original photos.
If you prefer saving edits directly to the original file instead of creating a separate file with edits, you can also choose to modify the original file when working in the Files browser.
Thanks to sidecar file size optimizations, your edits, including those of RAW photos, will use significantly less storage space when editing in both Files and Photos browsers.

Photomator 3.3.2
Released on February 22, 2024
Photomator 3.3.2 adds support for the powerful new Files browser on Mac, introducing side-by-side edit saving, smaller edit files, and the ability to browse and edit photos from the filmstrip in the Files browser. The update also includes improvements for better RAW image handling, and adds a few other fixes.
When working in Files, enjoy smooth edit syncing with Photomator's powerful new Files browser on Mac.
Edits sync when editing in various cloud services like iCloud Drive, Dropbox, Box, Google Drive, or Microsoft OneDrive, as long as you're signed in on all devices.
When editing photos on Mac in SSDs, NAS, or SD cards, the same edits are preserved when opening the storage drives on iPhone or iPad.

Set your preferred method for saving edits in the Editing settings within the Files browser.
Enjoy a convenient new way to browse photos using the filmstrip at the bottom of the screen.
Quickly start editing with filmstrip by pressing and holding a folder in the Files browser and selecting "Edit with Filmstrip" to give it folder access.
