What it is

Panorama Stitcher combines multiple photographs into a higher-resolution composite, automatically aligning source images by matching overlapping areas. It supports spherical alignment for panoramas made by rotating a camera and planar alignment for scans, microscope images, and aerial maps. The app levels exposure and corrects lens shading automatically. Spherical panoramas can use rectilinear or equirectilinear projection, while planar images have a rotation control. Before export, users can straighten or rotate the result, adjust exposure, and set cropping. It imports image formats supported by macOS, including Apple RAW formats, and exports JPEG, 16-bit TIFF, or PNG. Output can merge EXIF tags from the source images, and equirectangular panoramas can use Photosphere tags. Panorama Stitcher Mini is a free Mac edition for smaller projects and stitches up to five images; its listed plan costs nothing. The app accesses only selected files, does not collect user data or send images to the maker or third parties, and has no Internet access. Version 1.11 requires macOS 10.14 or later and added native Apple M1 support, according to release notes.
