I think where I struggled was when the set is mostly similar but still needs small per photo tweaks writing new commands or rerunning pipeline for small changes felt a bit heavy
I wanted something more interactive where I can adjust visually, apply to many, then still tweak few without starting over
I am shipping it now, but still treating it like a tool I use myself first and improving it based on real use
not trying to compete with big tools, more like filling that gap when you have a specific workflow that does not fit well anywhere
on pricing, that is fair callout, older versions had subscription and App Store listing might still show that depending on update or region I recently moved it to one time purchase because it makes more sense for this kind of tool
still figuring things out as I go
latest version is one time purchase now
trying to keep it simple and local, no uploads and no ongoing fees
I built this because I realized I was trading my privacy for convenience. Every time I needed to bulk-crop or rename personal photos, I was uploading them to random "free" web tools. It felt wrong to send my data to a server just to do a simple 16:9 crop.
The Curiosity: Why can't our local machines handle this instantly? I spent the last few months optimizing a native pipeline (SwiftUI + Core Image) to handle 500+ image batches locally. I also tapped into the Neural Engine to run OCR, Smart Face Blur, and Scene Classification entirely on-device.
The Model: It’s a freemium app. You can process small batches (up to 10 images) for free forever—no ads, no tracking. I added a subscription for power users who need unlimited batch sizes and pro formats to help support development.
My Ask:
- I’ve been building this in a "bubble" and would genuinely love your feedback.
- Does the "Smart Metadata" editor feel robust enough for your workflow?
- I’m curious if the "Face Blur" privacy feature is actually useful to you, or if it feels like a gimmick?

What other features would you like me to build?
