Why Photo-Manager?

Purpose-built for photographers who need speed, privacy, and powerful organization tools.

Native Performance

Built with Rust and compiled to native code. Virtual scrolling renders 100k+ items at 60fps. Thumbnail generation uses parallel processing for maximum throughput.

Smart Organization

Albums, colored tags, favorites, and powerful search. Multi-select with bulk actions lets you organize thousands of items in seconds.

Privacy First

Your photos never leave your computer. Local SQLite database, no cloud uploads, no telemetry. Works completely offline.

Non-Destructive Editing

Crop, rotate, flip, adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, and sharpen. Edits stored as instructions—your originals are never modified.

Video Support

Smart codec detection plays H.264 videos natively. HEVC, ProRes, and other formats are automatically transcoded to MP4 in the background with real-time progress.

Duplicate Detection

Perceptual hashing technology finds visually similar images even when resized or converted. Auto-resolve keeps the highest quality version.

Multi-PC Sync

Share your library across multiple computers via OneDrive or shared folders. Changes to favorites, tags, albums, and edits sync automatically.

Auto-Updates

Stay on the latest version with seamless background updates. Download, verify, install, and restart—all with one click when a new version is available.

iPhone Import
