24 alternatives to macOS app PhotoSort could help reduce your monthly iCloud bill
PhotoSort does two simple things that Apple Photos (deliberately?) doesn't. It sorts your iCloud and Mac Photos library by file size and aesthetic quality. This lets you find not just your best photos, but also large, unwanted photos and videos filling up your iCloud storage, and the hundreds of useless screenshots and forgettable photos cluttering up your Photos library. PhotoSort creates two albums in the Photos app: SizeSort and QualitySort. The first identifies the biggest space hogs that you could offload to reduce storage; the second separates your best shots from the mediocre and…

TinyFast▲319I am a developer. I have been building stuff for the last 13 years. One common challenge in all my projects is compressing assets to make them as small as possible. I used to end up using online compressors, but this has a lot of privacy concerns. So, I finally set down for couple of weeks and built this simple app. I can just drag and drop assets in it and it shrinks them. It currently supports around 25 file types. I built a lot of iOS apps but this is the first time building a macOS app, so any feedback is welcome.

Made a small tool to publish albums from Apple Photos online. The goal is to: 1) view photos in different ways: timeline, grid etc 2) allow people to bring their own domain 3) allow people to embed those photos in other places online Basically I'm trying to make apple photos web friendly. It works in a very simple way. Your photos are in your iCloud, but you share specific albums that you want to make public.

SnapSort▲9Hey HN, I built SnapSort, a cross-platform app that uses Google’s Gemini to automatically sort and categorize your photos. Why I built it: Ever taken a screenshot to send to a friend… and then forgotten about it? Or downloaded a photo and never moved it from Downloads? Your Photos, Desktop, and Downloads folders slowly turn into chaos. I was tired of cluttered folders filled with screenshots from the last three years. I wanted something that automates photo organization using AI. What it does: - Sorts photos into categories like portraits, food, nature, or documents using Gemini - Let's you…

Hello HN! Driven by the desire to avoid upgrading to the 2TB iCloud tier, I made a photo cleaning app for iOS that helps you systematically review your photos. While there are many similar apps, none of them checked all the boxes for what I wanted: - Clear privacy guarantee that photos never leave your device - Being honest about free limit usage. Some apps let you review photos only to reveal you can delete just a couple per day when you try to empty the trash. Basically taking your time hostage, when you've already gone through hundreds of photos - Context for better decisions. A lot of…
