Photos Workbench 1.0: Organize Your Apple Photos Library

Luxembourg, Luxembourg - Houdah Software s.à r.l today announced the launch of Photos Workbench, a new application for macOS that makes it easy to organize, rate, and compare photos in your Apple Photos library.

Photos Workbench is a companion application to Apple Photos on macOS. With Photos Workbench, Mac users can browse their photos library: view albums, filter and sort photos, and organize photos into albums.

Photos Workbench has unique capabilities to help organize photos and curate the library:

* Batch change titles. Give photos descriptive names
** Build names following a format. Example: "Hawaii 2022_12_01 - Maui #018"
** Find & replace text
* Add location information with minimal effort
** Drag-and-drop photos on a large map
** Geocode automatically from a GPS track log
** Incremental geocoding workflow to place photos accurately with minimal map movements
* Star ratings to classify and find photos by their relative quality or relevance
** Filter albums to view only your best-rated shots
** Star ratings translate to keywords in Apple Photos
* Apply keywords. Keep a concise and consistent vocabulary
** One-click apply keywords from ready-made and custom keyword sets
** Set up shortcuts to flag photos with a keyword with the press of a single key
* Compare mode finds the best shot in a series
*** Photos Workbench shows photos in pairs
*** Compare the current top shot to the next candidate
*** Repeat until all photos have been evaluated
*** The winner of the last round is the best shot
*** Apply star ratings for a more fine-grained classification

"Our photo libraries suffer from overload. We need to organize and curate," said Pierre Bernard of Houdah Software. "Photos Workbench helps with easy workflows to add locations, add keywords, and assign descriptive names. Comparing and rating photos helps find the top shots and cull the library."

System Requirements:

* macOS 12 Monterey or newer
* 30 MB of disk space
