Being restricted to opening files from and saving to the Photos app is a major disappointment. Files should be able to be opened from anywhere and saved to anywhere, and is the reason I do not use photomator. I hope Pixelmater's development team will consider allowing file management to be user defined.

+1000, but, you'll see elsewhere here and on their roadmap that this feature is "coming soon."

+1, I see that photo sorting and rating as well as file system support is on the roadmap, but I wanted to add my voice to see it sooner rather than later!

I noticed that file system support and photo sorting and rating are planned features, but I wanted to voice my support so that it happens sooner rather than later!

Yes browser support works well from my testing so far - sorting/rating isn't ready yet from what I understand. I personally use FastRawViewer for that, well worth the tiny price IMHO

We've added full support for opening files from any location in Photomator 3.3. It now features a powerful, native macOS file browser for faster, easier photo browsing and editing on Mac, external drives, and cloud services. :star:
