What it is
PhotoPicker is a mobile photo-culling app for selecting strong shots, rejecting mistakes, comparing images, and writing decisions to XMP files. Its on-device AI analyzes photos for closed eyes, blur, missed focus, duplicates, weak expressions, and motion issues. You can review images directly from SD cards, CFexpress cards, external SSDs, and local folders without importing them. Controls include swipe gestures, star ratings, color labels, auto-advance, one-handed operation, and edge-tap navigation. On iPad and Android tablets, two photos can be compared side by side with synchronized zoom and pixel-level inspection. The app displays autofocus points, EXIF information, capture metadata, and zoomed details. Ratings, labels, and flags are saved as XMP sidecars for Lightroom Classic, Adobe Camera Raw, Capture One, and other compatible software. PhotoPicker says processing stays on the device, photos are not uploaded to the cloud, and the app works without internet. A free plan is available; Pro options cost $9.99 a month, $29.99 a year, or 79.99 USD once.
