About Remote Photo Organizer
Remote Photo Organizer provides a professional, file-based workflow for your iCloud Drive library. Manage your collection with technical precision—no proprietary databases, no mandatory downloads, and no vendor lock-in. ### Native XMP Integration Built for pros who use darktable, Lightroom, or Capture One. • Open Standard: Ratings (1–5 stars) and face tags are saved directly to XMP sidecar files. • Seamless Sync: Your organizational work is instantly recognized by your desktop editor the moment iCloud syncs. • Non-Destructive: We never touch your original pixels. Metadata stays portable and independent. ### AI Facial Recognition • Local Processing: On-device AI identifies and groups faces within your iCloud folders. • XMP Face Tags: Face data is written into the open XMP standard, ensuring your "People" labels are universal across platforms. • Private: No cloud analysis. Your data stays on your device. ### Pro Culling & Review • Total Transparency: View full EXIF data (Lens, ISO, Aperture, Shutter) for every file. • Efficient Management: Filter by rating to find keepers or bulk-delete rejected shots and their sidecars in one step. • Thumbnail-First Grid: Navigate massive high-res libraries without the bloat of local caching. ### Built for Power Users A native experience across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with full keyboard shortcut support for rapid culling.
