PowerPhotos is a powerful utility designed to enhance and expand the functionality of the native Photos app on macOS. It provides users with an extensive set of tools to manage, organize, and clean up large photo collections by offering more flexibility and control over multiple libraries, duplicates, and photo exports.

Key Features of PowerPhotos:

  • Manage Multiple Libraries:
    PowerPhotos allows users to create and manage multiple photo libraries, enabling better organization and faster access compared to working with a single massive library. This helps when archiving older photos, managing iCloud storage, or storing collections on external drives.
  • Copy Photos & Metadata:
    The app enables users to copy albums and photos between libraries while retaining metadata such as keywords, descriptions, titles, dates, and favorites. This is ideal for splitting or organizing libraries efficiently.
  • Merge Libraries:
    PowerPhotos allows users to merge several photo libraries into one, while automatically detecting and managing duplicate photos. A preview feature shows how the merged library will look before finalizing the process.
  • Find and Remove Duplicates:
    Over time, duplicate photos can accumulate in your collection. PowerPhotos provides a duplicate search feature that helps find and remove duplicates, even those that are not 100% identical (e.g., resized images or edited versions).
  • Browse and Search:
    Users can browse and search their photo collections without launching the Photos app. The image browser supports detailed photo information views, and the search function works across all libraries at once.
  • Migrate iPhoto and Aperture Libraries:
    For users transitioning from iPhoto or Aperture to Photos, PowerPhotos automates the migration process, making it easier to move older libraries into the Photos environment.

New Features in PowerPhotos 2.0:

  • Improved iCloud Photos Support:
    PowerPhotos 2.0 can now see and work with any photos in iCloud libraries, even those that haven’t been downloaded to the local hard drive. It will automatically download photos from iCloud as needed.
  • Advanced Exporting:
    The new export function allows users to export photos in various formats (e.g., JPG, PNG, TIFF), with more control over metadata, file hierarchy, and video formats.
  • Global Menu Bar Access:
    PowerPhotos 2.0 provides quick access to libraries through a global menu bar, even when the app isn’t actively running.
  • Library Groups:
    Users can organize their libraries into groups, making it easier to manage large collections of photo libraries.
  • Multiple Windows:
    Open and manage multiple libraries in separate windows, simplifying photo transfer and comparison between libraries.
  • New Duplicate Search Algorithm:
    The updated duplicate search engine can find photos that are slightly different (e.g., resized, re-saved, or edited), making it easier to clean up similar images.
  • Faster Library Loading:
    Rewritten internal code makes PowerPhotos 2.0 much faster in loading and managing libraries.
  • Improved AppleScript Support:
    Automation has been enhanced with support for copying albums, merging libraries, and exporting photos via AppleScript.

Compatibility:

  • macOS: Compatible with macOS Monterey, Ventura, Sonoma, and Sequoia.
